ABSTRACT
Introduction: The five diseases with the highest mortality rates in Brazil correspond to circulatory, neoplastic, respiratory, endocrine, nutritional and metabolic and digestive pathologies, respectively. Development and progression of such diseases are influenced by several risk factors. However, all relate directly to the bad habits of contemporary life. Therefore, the promotion of the course “The five most killers diseases in Brazil” aimed to bring knowledge about these pathologies, as well as to make listeners aware of the importance of good life habits, prevention and early diagnosis of these morbidities. Report: The content of the course was based on data from Datasus and had as its main target audience medical students. As for registration, it was promoted from google form and disseminated through social media, plus two more forms for the attendance count of more than 200 participants was applied. Its realization was based on the partnership established between the Standing Committee on Public Health (SCOPH) and six academic leagues of the college. Besides, the course was composed of five lectures in a single day given by medical experts from the five areas. Discussion: In Brazil, quality of life of the people and diseases that kill the most are strongly influenced by life habits. Moreover, lack of access of the population to quality information, prevention and continuity of full treatment facilitate the development and worsening of clinical conditions. Conclusion: The course was able to adequately inform the participants, as well as highlighting the need for early diagnosis and information measures of the population regarding the impact of life habits on these diseases, considering the disparities in health systems. Aiming, above all, to bring awareness and quality information about the five diseases that kill the most in Brazil.
