Abstract

This study aims to survey the national literature on papers regarding “integrality in health” during the last
10 years and highlight the main aspects approached on this subject. Literature review was performed, in 10 health journals,
on line, from 1997 to 2007, and 15 articles were selected The theme integrality is being developed in public health, in
education and hospital care, however it’s contextualized differently in each of these fields from different conceptions
reported in national literature. It appears that the issue is being discussed among professionals and that there are efforts
to extend the reflections and consolidation of the concept and its principles. This requires changes in the work organization
and also in human relations.
