Prevenção ao câncer de pele em discentes do curso de Zootecnia: um relato de experiência
2021
Skin cancer is a common dermatosis among humans, being of multifactorial etiology, in which factors such as genetic predisposition, exposure to environmental risk factors and others are considered. Among the working class that is at high risk for developing skin cancer are rural workers, as they spend a long time exposed to solar radiation. The aim of this paper was to provide information regarding prevention of skin cancer development aimed at students of the Zootechnics course, through activities that informed the appropriate ways to perform their academic activities safely, since they are more exposed to sunlight due to their academic practices. This is an experience report developed with students of the first period of the Animal Science course of a public institution in the city of Ceres, in the state of Goias, between 2018 and 2019. The activities were developed to address topics related to skin cancer and photoprotection. It was possible to identify that the students had low knowledge about the subject. Such pattern of knowledge can be justified by the fact that they are attending the first period of the Zootechnics course, stage in which basic subjects are taught as introduction to zootechnics, scientific methodology, animal anatomy, in which content related to the subject is not worked. Through this extension activity, it was possible to obtain an extremely relevant academic experience and try to raise awareness about skin cancer and the importance of photoprotection.
