This study presents an analysis of the implementation of Palpatory Anatomy as a methodology of interaction between the theoretical subjects of the anatomy of the musculoskeletal system and clinical practice in the context of Human Anatomy teaching, from the perspectives of students from the first period of the Medical School at the Federal University of Rio de Janeiro, Macaé Campus (UFRJ-Macaé). Palpatory Anatomy activities were included in the Human Anatomy course and a perception questionnaire was distributed to be answered by the students at the end of the semester. 84.71% of the total number of participants (144 students) agreed that the sessions contributed to learning the subject, and 72.22% reported an increased interest in the topic, results that are in accordance with the 2014 Curriculum Guidelines. On the other hand, there were criticisms on the short time devoted to the activity and the number of sessions. Although the current curricular structure of medicine courses makes it difficult to practice multimodal approaches, the inclusion of Palpatory Anatomy is encouraged as a teaching strategy for Human Anatomy, and as a skill to be developed and practiced throughout medical training, due to its relevance in performance of a good physical examination and clinical reasoning.Downloads
