0292/2018 - Caminhos Virtuais e Autismo: Acesso aos serviços de saúde na perspectiva da Análise de Redes Sociais. Virtual ways and Autism: Access to health servicesthe perspective of Social Network Analysis.
Constata-se o aumento da prevalência do Transtorno do Espectro Autista na população mundial e no Brasil. A internet tem se constituído importante fonte de informação ao acesso aos serviços de saúde, incluindo a saúde mental. Cabe sabermos se os caminhos virtuais em busca de informação se relacionam aos desfechos da linha de cuidado para transtornos mentais preconizada pelo SUS, como para o Autismo. Portanto, o presente artigo tem como objetivo analisar a rede virtual de acesso a informações sobre atendimento para Autismo no município do Rio de Janeiro em 2017 através da perspectiva da Análise de Rede Sociais. Para isso, foram coletados dados virtuais como: fontes virtuais de informação, serviços de atendimento citados pelas fontes virtuais e tipo de serviço (Público, privado ou ONGs). Através do uso do software Gephi, foi gerado e analisado um sociograma. Os resultados apontam para uma predominância de serviços de ONGs na rede, maior centralidade de grau e poder de intermediação desses serviços, além do isolamento dos serviços públicos de saúde. O resultado pressupõe que o sistema de informações acerca do acesso aos serviços de saúde pública para o tratamento do TEA seja expandido para a população em geral contribuindo com a melhoria do acesso a estes serviços.

Abstract:
The prevalence of Autistic Spectrum Disorder in the world population and in Brazil is increasing. The Internet has become an important source of information on access to health services, including mental health. It remains to be seen if the virtual paths in search of information are related to the outcomes of the line of care for mental disorders advocated by the SUS, such as Autism Spectrum Disorder. Therefore, the present article aims to analyze the virtual network of access to information about care for Autism in the municipality of Rio de Janeiro in 2017 through the perspective of Social Network Analysis. In this regard, virtual data were collected, such as: virtual information sources; institutions / Attendance Services cited by virtual sources and type of service (Public, private or NGOs). Through the use of Gephi software, a sociogram was generated and analyzed. The results point to a predominance of NGO services in the network, greater centrality of degree and power of intermediation in NGO services, in addition to the isolation of public health services. The result implies that the information system about access to public health services for the treatment of ASD is expanded to the general population by contributing to improved access to these services.
