KUPFER, Maria Cristina Machado    BERNARDINO, Leda Mariza Fischer. IRDI: AN INSTRUMENT THAT TAKES THE PSYCHOANALYSIS TO THE POLIS. []. , 23, 1, pp.62-82. ISSN 1415-7128.  https://doi.org/10.11606/issn.1981-1624.v23i1p62-82.

This article tells the history of the proposal and of the validation of the Indicadores de Risco para o Desenvolvimento Infantil (IRDI), an instrument composed by 31 reference clinical indicators for the monitoring of problems or impediments in the psychic development of children from zero to eighteen months. We approach the discussions generated within the psychoanalytic field on the creation of this instrument and of the promulgation of the Law no. 13.438, critically examining the objections done by psychoanalysts and technicians of Ministry of Health to this law. We conclude with proposals to modify some presuppositions in IRDI and to maintain others, after almost 20 years of its creation.
