Abstract

The field of Communication and Health in Brazil has been developing and getting stronger after each National Health Conference (NHC). In the final report of the XII NHC, in 2003, there was clear recognition that community radio is an instrument for the dissemination and treatment of issues related to the Brazilian Unified Health System (SUS). This study seeks to analyze the relationships that are established between health professionals, listeners/users and popular communicators as a means of understanding the nexus between a radio program on health and the imaginations of the listeners. A qualitative methodological approach was used of ethnographic and media audience methodologies. The field was a radio program about health, Bloco Mulher Saúde, broadcast by the Rádio Comunidade FM 104,9 in Nova Friburgo, State of Rio de Janeiro. The discussions were divided into analytical categories. The conclusion drawn is that community communication can be a cultural and political mediator for the expression of the demands of the community on health; the predominant medical jargon is maintained and reproduced by the physicians when participating on radio; community communication can contribute to the creation of strategies that broaden the social control of SUS.

Attention Score in Context

Attention Score in Context

This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 2. This is our high-level measure of the quality and quantity of online attention that it has received. This Attention Score, as well as the ranking and number of research outputs shown below, was calculated when the research output was last mentioned on 26 November 2013.
All research outputs
#16,064,389
of 25,400,630 outputs
Outputs from Ciência & Saúde Coletiva
#987
of 2,040 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#180,161
of 291,286 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Ciência & Saúde Coletiva
#5
of 16 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 25,400,630 research outputs across all sources so far. This one is in the 34th percentile – i.e., 34% of other outputs scored the same or lower than it.
So far Altmetric has tracked 2,040 research outputs from this source. They receive a mean Attention Score of 3.8. This one is in the 49th percentile – i.e., 49% of its peers scored the same or lower than it.
Older research outputs will score higher simply because they've had more time to accumulate mentions. To account for age we can compare this Altmetric Attention Score to the 291,286 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one is in the 36th percentile – i.e., 36% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
We're also able to compare this research output to 16 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one has done well, scoring higher than 75% of its contemporaries.
