RESUMO
PIP: This is an example of a case study written to describe the physical and psychological impact of stillbirth on the patient and the family, and how it can be used in the teaching of family health. It is suggested that the teacher prepare the students by reviewing the known causes of stillbirth and the physiology of labor and delivery. The patient, her family, and her community are described in detail. The situation and events are given in the form of a story. After the presentation, questions are put to the students that require their assessment of the requirements of the patient and her family in terms of nursing-midwifery management. A number of follow-ups are suggested for the teacher and students. This material was prepared by INTRAH staff members. Other materials prepared include training exercise in group dynamics, how to use tracing techniques to create visual aids, how to evaluate teaching and how to create a family health case study.^ieng

PIP: 1 way of teaching family health is through a case study, which can focus on common situations that occur during the family life cycle. Case studies can also be used to teach students about factors to consider in uncommon situations, or can be designed from the trainer's own experience for a specific group of health workers to make them aware of local customs, beliefs, and practices. The general guidelines are the following: 1) determine specifice objectives; 2) outline the content to be covered; 3) develop the case study; 4) test and revise it. In developing the study it is useful to focus on 1 member in a community, providing information about social, physical, and personal history. Make a point of telling a story, and select a format that is suitable for one's purposes. It is important to obtain the reaction and critique of more than 1 colleague and to evaluate the study after it has been presented to students. There should be enough information to stimulate the students' thinking and to give them something to work with, and, at the same time, certain data should be omitted so that they can identify what is missing and needed. The material was prepared by INTRAH staff members. Other materials include training in group dynamics, how to use tracing techniques to create visual aids, and how to evaluate teaching. A case study on stillbirth is presented in an adjacent article.^ieng
