ABSTRACT
Objective. This study aimed to search the literature for
intervention programs in primary care with a multiprofessional
character, specifically directed at the robust elderly, and
with viable and cost-effective interventions.
Materials and
methods. The search strategies were applied in Cochrane,
Lilacs, Pubmed, Scopus, WHOLIS, Embase, Medcarib, Scielo,
Web of Science, and PAHO databases.
Results. 3 665 articles
were found and 32 remained for analysis, grouped into four
categories: care management; multidisciplinary intervention;
interventions on the basis of risk; and educational interventions
with health professionals.
Conclusion. Strategies
such as domestic interventions can promote health and
functionality of elderlies, as well as reduce mortality, use of
the health system and costs. Besides that, the use of hard and
light-hard technologies are important for risk prevention and
care management for the elderly. There is a need to create
programs for risk prevention and effective management of
elderly care at the primary level.
