Analyzes as in Portugal and its dominions, from the thirteenth century, tried to regulating and monitoring medical practices at first turned to the army. In this way, from 1808, with the transfer of the Court and the institutions of bureaucracy to Brazil, such supervision has become more effective in the larger cities of Brazil. And since that year, the Fisicatura chancel was rebuilt with headquarters in Rio de Janeiro and all questions about regulation and supervision related to the healing arts would be decided there.
