This study aimed to analyze the National Curriculum Guidelines (DCNs) published from 2001 to 2004 for fourteen careers in the area of Health. A descriptive exploratory study was conducted in 2015 and 2016 through a documental analysis of the DCNs according to Resolution no. 287/1998. Data were collected from the website of the Ministry of Education. To analyze the data, an analytical matrix with two axes was used: Curriculum (evaluation process; teaching-learning process; curriculum organization) and Professional Profile (professional profile; healthcare; health education; health management). The results showed that the DCNs maintained aspects of the traditional model of teaching, and the innovative pedagogical orientations were not qualified in a clear way in these documents. The association of these findings with the presence of gaps in the articulation among education, health needs and the demands of the Brazilian National Health System (SUS) reveal that further analyses of this type should be carried out and that the DCNs should be reviewed.
Key words : Health professionals; Curriculum; Brazilian National Health Syste.
