REVISÃO SISTEMÁTICA INTEGRATIVA DA LITERATURA SOBRE MODELOS E PRÁTICAS DE INTERVENÇÃO PRECOCE NO BRASIL

OBJECTIVE: To identify which Early Childhood Intervention practices and models are described in the Brazilian literature. DATA SOURCES: A systematic integrative review of the literature indexed in databases from Virtual Health Library, Bielefeld Academic Search Engine, Education Resources Information Center and Portal of Periodicals of the Coordination of Improvement of Higher Education Personnel was carried out, considering the period between 2005 and 2015. The following articles were analyzed: those published in English or Portuguese, fully available online, with the terms "Early Intervention", "Early Stimulation" or "Essential Stimulation" in the title, abstract or keywords; studies that enrolled children aged from 0 to 6 years, their caregivers or professionals in Early Intervention services; manuscripts published in journals classified as ≥ B2 (WebQualis; Qualis 2014) in the fields of Education or Physical Education; and studies that described Early Intervention practices. DATA SYNTHESIS: Early Intervention seems to be developed exclusively related to the health sector, with prevalence of practices aimed at stimulating skills through the use of clinical approaches, whose focus is centered on the child and structured in the model of rehabilitative care. CONCLUSOES: Os resultados apontam para a adocao de praticas e modelos de Intervencao Precoce distantes daqueles recomendados e reconhecidos como boas praticas pela literatura internacional. Nesse sentido, aponta-se a necessidade da atualizacao dos profissionais que atuam nessa area, bem como do investimento em pesquisas que incidam sobre a tematica.
