e as opiniões desses profissionais sobre conversar ou não com seus pacientes sobre
o fenômeno da SUDPAR. Métodos: Os fonoaudiólogos de Alagoas foram recrutados
através de busca ativa nas mídias sociais; em seguida, responderam a um
questionário estruturado com questões sobre o perfil profissional e sociodemográfico,
sobre os achados fonoaudiológicos na DP, além de SUDPAR. Resultados: . Ao
caracterizar os fonoaudiólogos desta região, 91,6% são do sexo feminino, 43,4% com
idade entre 31-40 e 60,1% são especialistas. A grande maioria respondeu
satisfatoriamente a todas as perguntas a respeito dos achados fonoaudiológicos na
DP. A grande maioria dos fonoaudiólogos (87,2%) não conhece o fenômeno de
SUDPAR. Dentre os 26 que conhecem sobre SUDPAR, 15 afirmaram que conversam
com os pacientes e seus familiares/cuidadores sobre o fenômeno quando estes

trabalham nos serviços de saúde alocados na capital Maceió. Apesar de conhecerem
a ampla atuação e achados clínicos fonoaudiológicos na DP, não conhecem os dados
epidemiológicos na DP e o fenômeno de SUDPAR.
