Barreras y facilitadores para el uso de las guías de práctica clínica por residentes de Medicina Familiar y Comunitaria: estudio cualitativo con grupos focales / Barriers and facilitators for the use of clinical practice guidelines by Family and Community Medicine residents: qualitative study with focus groups

Objetivo: identificar barreras y facilitadores para el uso de las guías de práctica clínica (GPC) por residentes de Medicina Familiar y Comunitaria.Métodos: metodología cualitativa. Se formaron tres grupos focales, total 28 residentes de tercer y cuarto año de las siete unidades docentes multiprofesionales de Atención Familiar y Comunitaria de Madrid. Los temas explorados fueron: conocimiento, comprensión, utilidad y uso de GPC. Las categorías elegidas para agrupar el discurso se elaboraron siguiendo el Manual metodológico de GuíaSalud. Análisis sociológico bajo la perspectiva fenomenológica.Resultados: las barreras relacionadas con la formación fueron el modelo de formación recibida para adquirir las habilidades necesarias, la falta de conocimientos para evaluar la calidad de las guías y un limitado conocimiento de los buscadores. Entre las barreras del contexto social y del sistema sanitario, se identificaron el conflicto con las expectativas del paciente, con las recomendaciones de otros especialistas, las características de los pacientes que consultan en Atención Primaria (AP) y la limitación de tiempo en las consultas. Como facilitadores se identificaron la motivación personal, los conocimientos y el modelo de práctica profesional del tutor y que las GPC fueran claras, breves y en diversos formatos.Conclusiones: los residentes dan valor a las GPC como herramientas docentes, de ayuda a la toma de decisiones y para desempeñar un mejor ejercicio profesional, aunque encuentran dificultades y limitaciones en su uso. El papel del tutor se identifica como clave; la formación, motivación y el modelo de práctica del tutor son considerados como los mayores facilitadores.(AU)

Aim: to identify barriers and facilitators for the use of Clinical Practice Guidelines (CPG) by Family and Community Medicine residents.Method: qualitative methodology. Three focus groups were set up, with a total of 28 participants, 3rd and 4th year residents of the 7 Multiprofessional Family and Community Care Teaching Units of Madrid. The topics explored were based on knowledge, understanding, usefulness and use of CPG. The categories chosen for discussion were drawn up according to the GuiaSalud Methodological Manual. Sociological analysis was performed using a phenomenological approach.Results: the barriers related to training were the training model received to acquire the necessary skills, the lack of knowledge to evaluate the quality of guidelines and a limited knowledge of the search engines. Among the barriers related to social context and health system, conflict with the patient's expectations or with the recommendations of other specialists, the characteristics of patients who consult in primary care and the limited time available for consultations were all identified. Personal motivation, the tutor’s knowledge and professional practice model and clear, brief CPGs and in various formats were all identified as facilitators. Conclusions: residents value CPGs as teaching and decision-making tools, as well as a tool to improve their professional practice. However, they detect difficulties and limitations in their use. Training, motivation and the tutor's practice model are considered to be among the greatest facilitators.(AU)

Training items for trainee residents in community medicine in rural areas.

OBJECTIVE: To examine the significant events experienced by initial trainees during community medicine training, evaluate their impact on community medicine practice, and support improvements in rural community medicine training. RESULTS: Three faculty teachers independently evaluated the reports of 25 residents who had completed a four-week community medicine training in a rural area to analyze major events. The reports were analyzed using topics from the Model Core Curriculum for Medical Education that relate to rural medicine. The most frequently reported items were identified as follows: Primary care: 9 (36.0%); integrated community care systems: 8 (32.0%); medical care in the local community: 7 (28.0%); home health care and systems, patient-physician relationship, and end-of-life medical treatment and care: 6 each (24.0%). Reports from residents describing events related to home health care and systems and end-of-life medical treatment and care were related to more than one item.

[Community health. Innovating in the training of family and community medicine residents]. / Salud comunitaria. Innovando en la formación de residentes de medicina familiar y comunitaria.

OBJECTIVE: To know the opinions of the agents involved in the training of family and community medicine residents in order to improve the training process of the «Project to Support the Revitalization of Primary Care; Assets for Community Health¼ (PARAC) taking into account its adequacy, contextualization and the methodologies used. METHOD: Qualitative interpretative-explanatory study of phenomenological orientation, multilevel and multicenter, in which the opinion of the participants is analyzed. Between 2018 and 2020, 12 focus groups and 24 semi-structured interviews were carried out, with the participation of sixty-seven professionals from six health districts of Andalusia (Spain), who were involved in the PARAC training process. RESULTS: The participants consider it necessary to broaden training in community health for residents. To this end, they consider it necessary to make changes in the training plan of the specialty, giving more importance to primary health care than to hospital rotations. They value positively the methodologies used in the PARAC training process, which they consider «novel¼, and the choice of young teachers to serve as references. In order for their interventions in the territory to be carried out with quality and safety for the population, they ask that specific times and spaces be guaranteed for community health, as well as adequate supervision to help ensure the coherence and continuity of their interventions. CONCLUSIONS: Training in community health for family and community medicine residents requires a pedagogical, didactic and curricular effort that prepares them for work with the community, as well as the guarantee of organizational conditions that allow this work.

[The new program of the Family and Community Medicine specialty: An opportunity not to be missed]. / El nuevo programa de la especialidad de medicina familiar y comunitaria: una oportunidad que no se debe perder.

The training program for the Family and Community Medicine specialty (MFyC), which has been in effect since 2005, is currently undergoing a review and update process. This article proposes contributions to deepen the specific contents of the specialty in order to guide towards a more significant competency development. To carry out values-oriented training, it is suggested to deploy the values function and promote the creation of care spaces where the daily experience of those values is possible. It is proposed to establish a scale of values where the two essential values of the family physician are, in this order, a commitment to the individual person, and a commitment to the group of people under their care. Additionally, it is proposed to reorganize the competency map around five competency integrators or meta-competencies: patient-centered clinical method, population-based clinical governance, primary care oriented to the community, health promotion or community health based on assets, and research in the family and community field.

Family and Community Medicine Residency Programs for training the health workforce: what do municipal health managers think? / Residência em Medicina de Família e Comunidade para a formação de recursos humanos: o que pensam gestores municipais?

The training, recruitment and retention of primary care professionals is a constant challenge in Brazil. The recent expansion of family and community medicine residency programs in the country coexists with gaps in the literature on the effects of this process. This article explores municipal health managers' understanding of these programs and the role they play in professional training and improving the quality of health care. We conducted a quantitative and qualitative analysis of the responses to questionnaires answered by 48 health managers working in municipal health services affiliated to residency programs. A descriptive statistical analysis of the quantitative data was performed and the qualitative data were analyzed using thematic analysis. The findings show that efforts were made to incorporate family and community doctors into the health care network and that managers recognized the potential residency program have to improve the quality of care and enhance professional training. Weaknesses were found in actions to improve infrastructure and facilities and the organization of the services affiliated to the programs. This study highlights the potential of residency programs for addressing longstanding problems in primary health care in Brazil when combined with actions to strengthen services, human resources and the programs.

Treinamento especializado, provimento e fixação de profissionais na Atenção Primária à Saúde são desafios prementes no Brasil. A recente expansão dos Programas de Residência em Medicina de Família e Comunidade coexiste com lacunas na literatura sobre o efeito deste processo. O objetivo do trabalho é explorar a perspectiva do gestor municipal de saúde acerca das estratégias para o fortalecimento das residências e do papel destas na formação profissional e na qualificação da atenção. Trata-se de um estudo de análise quantitativa e qualitativa, com aplicação de questionário a gestores de municípios cenários destes programas. As respostas de 48 sujeitos foram submetidas a estatística descritiva e análise de conteúdo. Os resultados revelam um esforço em incorporar o Médico de Família e Comunidade na rede de atenção à saúde, uma percepção do potencial das residências no incremento da qualidade da atenção e da formação profissional e fragilidades nas ações para melhoria da estrutura e organização dos serviços com residentes. Vislumbra-se assim o potencial das residências para a superação de problemas históricos da Atenção Primária à Saúde brasileira, se atrelada a ações de fortalecimento do serviço, dos recursos humanos e do próprio programa.

Análisis descriptivo de la formación en participación comunitaria en salud en España / Descriptive analysis of training in community health engagement in Spain

OBJETIVO: Describir las actividades formativas en participación comunitaria en salud que se realizan en España. MÉTODO: Identificación y análisis descriptivo de las acciones formativas en el periodo 2017-2018 en los ámbitos de la universidad, la Administración pública y las unidades docentes de medicina y enfermería familiar y comunitaria. RESULTADOS: Se incluyeron 28 actividades formativas en el análisis descriptivo de ocho comunidades autónomas diferentes y dos de ámbito nacional. La mayoría de las actividades formativas son presenciales e impartidas por unidades docentes de formación especializada para profesionales de medicina y enfermería de atención familiar y comunitaria, con una duración de entre 10 y 25 horas, y sin coste de matriculación. CONCLUSIÓN: Existe un vacío formativo en la mayoría de las comunidades autónomas que evidencia que la formación en participación comunitaria en salud es escasa y está poco integrada. Las actividades formativas analizadas están incluidas principalmente en la formación de especialistas de medicina y enfermería de familia y comunitaria, si bien esta formación no está unificada ni se incorpora en todos los planes docentes. Para una mirada integral sobre la salud de las personas es esencial incluir la participación comunitaria en salud en la formación de grado y posgrado, tanto del ámbito sanitario como de otras disciplinas. Las instituciones responsables de la formación en los diferentes niveles deben incluir la participación comunitaria en salud en los itinerarios formativos de los profesionales

OBJECTIVE: To describe the professional training health professionals receive in community health engagement in Spain. METHOD: The identification and descriptive analysis of trainings developed between 2013-2018 offered by public universities, public administrations and the teaching units for the specialization of family and community health doctors and nurses. RESULTS: Twenty eight trainings were included in the descriptive analysis. Most of them had been organized during 2018 in eight Autonomous Communities. Two of them were organized at a national level. Most trainings were attendance based and have been developed by teaching units in charge of training doctors and nurses specializing in family and community health, with an average duration of 10-25hours and no enrolment costs. CONCLUSION: There is a lack of training in community health engagement in the majority of autonomous communities in Spain which shows that it is scarce and not yet fully integrated in the training of health professionals. The trainings that have been analyzed are mainly part of wider specialization programs for doctors and nurses specializing in family and community health, and even so this training is not standardized and included in the specialization programs of all the Spanish regions. To develop a comprehensive health approach it is key to include community health engagement as part of the trainings professionals receive during their University degree, and to extend it to other health professions. The institutions responsible for the training of health professionals should include community health engagement as part of the different training itineraries of professionals

Aportaciones de una práctica de promoción de salud comunitaria a la formación profesional de estudiantes de medicina de la Universidad de Chile / Contributions of a health promotion practice for the professional training of medical students at the University of Chile

INTRODUCCIÓN: La promoción de salud es esencial dentro de un sistema de salud basado en la atención primaria. Pese a ello, prevalece una escasa integración de las acciones de promoción de salud, tanto en la formación como en el desempeño profesional de médicos generalistas. OBJETIVO: Describir las aportaciones de una práctica de promoción de salud en la formación médica, desde lo expresado por estudiantes de medicina durante su internado rural. Sujetos y métodos. Estudio descriptivo cualitativo basado en informes sobre acciones de promoción de salud realizadas por internos de medicina de la Universidad de Chile, en 2016-2018. Se realizó un análisis del contenido de las narrativas para identificar inductivamente categorías descriptivas de las aportaciones. RESULTADOS: Se identificaron nueve categorías de aportaciones, cinco de ellas relacionadas con el diseño e implementación de actividades de promoción de salud comunitaria (reconocimiento de características de la audiencia; adaptación a la audiencia; autorreconocimiento de limitaciones, dificultades y manejo de incertidumbre; valoración de saberes comunitarios; satisfacción con resultados) y cuatro relacionadas con el reconocimiento del papel del médico en la práctica comunitaria (comprensión del contexto local; reflexión crítica sobre actores y roles institucionales; deficiencias en la formación médica; visión de las actividades y rol del médico). CONCLUSIONES: La práctica de promoción de salud comunitaria constituye un espacio de aprendizajes en torno a los grupos sociales, de adaptación a las condiciones locales y de refuerzo del papel del médico, que son percibidos como aportaciones a la formación médica

INTRODUCTION: Health promotion represents a key element of a primary-care based health system. Nevertheless, poor integration of the health promotion actions still prevails in the undergraduate training and the professional performance of generalist practitioners. AIM: To describe the contributions of a health promotion practice in the undergraduate medical training, as expressed by medical students during their internship in a rural area. Subjects and methods. Qualitative descriptive study, based on the University of Chile medical student's reports of their health promotion activities developed during 2016 to 2018. Narrative content analysis was performed in order to inductively identify descriptive categories for these contributions. RESULTS: Nine categories of contributions were identified; five of them are related to the design and implementation of health promotion activities at community level (acknowledgment of audience's characteristics; adaptation to the audience; self-awareness of limitations, difficulties and uncertainty management; appreciation of the community wisdom and knowledge; satisfaction with the activity results), and four further categories refer to the recognition of the physician's role in the community (local context assessment; critical appraisal of institutional roles and actors; deficiencies in previous medical training; perspectives on community work and the physician's role in that context). CONCLUSIONS: Community-based health promotion activities are important scenarios for learning about social groups, adaptation to local conditions and strengthening the physician's role. These are perceived as contributions to the under-graduate training of medical professionals

Family and Community Medicine in Uruguay from 1997 to 2019: how many kilometers will it take to reach that town? / La Medicina Familiar y Comunitaria en Uruguay de 1997 a 2019: ¿cuántos kilómetros faltarán para llegar al pueblo aquel?

The Family and Community Medicine Residency started in Uruguay in 1997. Through a self-managed process, the first generations were molded into training that integrated hospital knowledge and experience with territorial praxis in a community-based health service with a population of reference. The academic recognition of the specialty and the installation of the institutional areas for its management were achievements parallel to that process in the first decade. The second decade was marked by the territorial teaching-assistance expansion in the country, university decentralization and the active participation of Family and Community Medicine in the Health Reform, and the country's rights agenda. The third decade of the specialty begins with a crisis triggered by the sustained decline in the aspiration for residency. An initial approach to explanations reflects on the possibility of facing a more profound crisis and the need to find the keys to a 21st century Medicine that allows us to achieve the principles of Alma-Ata that are still current.

La residencia de medicina familiar y comunitaria comenzó en Uruguay en el año 1997. A través de un proceso autogestionado, las primeras generaciones se moldearon en una formación que integraba en ellos el conocimiento y la experiencia hospitalarios junto con la praxis territorial en un servicio de salud de base comunitaria con población de referencia. El reconocimiento académico de la especialidad y la instalación de los ámbitos institucionales para su gestión fueron conquistas paralelas a ese proceso en la primera década. La segunda década estuvo marcada por la expansión territorial de la estructura docente-asistencial, la descentralización de la universidad y la participación activa de la medicina familiar y comunitaria en la reforma de la salud y la agenda de derechos. La tercera década de la especialidad se presenta en su inicio como crisis dada por la caída sostenida en la aspiración a la residencia. Desde una aproximación inicial a las explicaciones, se reflexiona sobre la posibilidad de estar frente a una crisis más profunda y la necesidad de encontrar las claves de una medicina del siglo XXI que permita alcanzar los principios de Alma Ata, siempre vigentes.

Dialogues between the Astana Declaration, the Right to Health and Family and Community Medicine training in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. / Interlocuções entre a Declaração de Astana, o Direito à Saúde e a formação em Medicina de Família e Comunidade no Rio de Janeiro, Brasil.

This paper discusses and fosters concerns in light of the repercussions of both the 40th anniversary of the Alma-Ata Declaration and the Astana Declaration, discussing the possible influence on Family and Community Medicine training, as per the lenses of two Residency Programs of three public institutions, namely, State University of Rio de Janeiro, Federal University of Rio de Janeiro, and the Oswaldo Cruz Foundation. These are inserted in a historical and social context, between the world of work, public policies, international organizations, the population and subjects involved in the construction, maintenance, and consolidation of the Brazilian PHC. Thus, in a brief historical revival, we contextualized which Primary Care was a practice setting and where we might be headed. We concluded that the willingness to ensure the Right to Health would be threatened by the concept of Universal Coverage, advocated by the Astana Declaration, which leads to essential discussions: ensuring state-provided services, advocating for equity and integrality of actions, reaffirming the risk of generating inequality by creating multiple service offerings for different segments of the population, reiterating the relevance of access to health, and valuation of territorialization.

Este artigo discute e promove inquietações à luz da repercussão dos 40 anos da Declaração de Alma-Ata e também da Declaração de Astana, discutindo os possíveis impactos na formação em Medicina de Família e Comunidade, segundo o olhar de 2 Programas de Residência de 3 instituições públicas: a Universidade do Estado do Rio de Janeiro, a Universidade Federal do Rio de Janeiro e a Fundação Oswaldo Cruz. Estes estão inseridos em um contexto histórico e social, entre o mundo do trabalho, as políticas públicas, os organismos internacionais, a população e os sujeitos envolvidos na construção, manutenção e consolidação da Atenção Primária no Brasil. Assim, em um breve resgate histórico, contextualizamos qual Atenção Primária era cenário de prática e para onde, possivelmente, estaríamos nos deslocando. Conclui que a garantia do Direito à Saúde, estaria ameaçada pelo conceito de Cobertura Universal, preconizado pela Declaração de Astana; o que provoca importantes discussões: garantia de ofertas de serviços providos pelo estado, defesa da equidade e integralidade das ações. Reafirmação sobre o risco de gerar desigualdade ao se criar múltiplas ofertas de serviços para diferentes segmentos da população, reiteração sobre a importância do acesso às Unidades de Saúde, valorização da territorialização.

Reflections and proposals for the establishment of Family and Community Medicine Master's Programs in Brazil. / Reflexões e propostas para a estruturação de programas de Mestrado em Medicina de Família e Comunidade no Brasil.

While Primary Health Care (PHC) and Family and Community Medicine (FCM) have expanded their space and relevance in health care and undergraduate medical courses, Brazil has no stricto sensu FCM postgraduate programs. In this paper, we analyze some aspects of the Brazilian public health field and the national stricto sensu postgraduate system that can help to explain this scenario. As a contribution to the debate on this topic, we also gathered information from international postgraduate and research experiences in FCM and devised a curriculum proposal for future national FCM master's courses. In the end, we discussed some key strategies for the emergence of stricto sensu postgraduate courses in this discipline in Brazil, highlighting the potential of these programs for evaluation and qualification of primary care services, especially the Family Health Strategy, and the training of PHC specialists required for the consolidation of the Unified Health System (SUS) as an accessible, comprehensive and equitable health system for the Brazilian population.

Embora a atenção primária à saúde (APS) e a medicina de família e comunidade (MFC) tenham aumentado seu espaço e relevância no cenário assistencial e nos cursos de graduação médica, não há cursos de pós-graduação "stricto sensu" em MFC no Brasil. Neste artigo, analisamos alguns aspectos do campo da saúde pública brasileira e da própria estruturação da pós-graduação "stricto sensu" nacional que podem ajudar a explicar este panorama. Como uma contribuição para o debate neste tema, também reunimos informações de experiências internacionais em pós-graduação e pesquisa em MFC e elaboramos uma proposta de currículo para futuros cursos nacionais de mestrado em MFC. Ao final discutimos algumas estratégias fundamentais para o surgimento de cursos de pós-graduação "stricto sensu" nesta área no Brasil, destacando o potencial desses cursos para a avaliação e a qualificação dos serviços de atenção primária, em especial a Estratégia Saúde da Família, e para a formação de profissionais especializados em APS necessários para a consolidação do Sistema Único de Saúde como sistema acessível, abrangente e equitativo para a população brasileira.

The Decline in Community Preceptor Teaching Activity: Exploring the Perspectives of Pediatricians Who No Longer Teach Medical Students.

PURPOSE: Difficulty in recruiting and retaining community preceptors for medical student education has been described in the literature. Yet little, if any, information is known about community outpatient preceptors who have stopped or decreased teaching time with students. This study aimed to examine these preceptors' perspectives about this phenomenon. METHOD: Using a phenomenology framework, this multi-institutional qualitative study used semistructured interviews with community pediatric preceptors who had stopped or reduced teaching time with medical students. Interviews were conducted between October 2017 and January 2018 and transcribed verbatim. Interviews explored factors for engaging in teaching, or decreasing or ceasing teaching, that would enable future teaching. An initial code book was developed and refined as data were analyzed to generate themes. RESULTS: Twenty-seven community pediatricians affiliated with 10 institutions participated. Thirty-seven codes resulted in 4 organizing themes: evolution of health care, personal barriers, educational system, and ideal situations to recruit and retain preceptors, each with subthemes. CONCLUSIONS: From the viewpoints of physicians who had decreased or stopped teaching students, this study more deeply explores previously described reasons contributing to the decline of community preceptors, adds newly described barriers, and offers strategies to help counter this phenomenon based on preceptors' perceptions. These findings appear to be manifestations of deeper issues including the professional identify of clinical educators. Understanding the barriers and strategies and how they relate to preceptors themselves should better inform education leaders to more effectively halt the decline of community precepting and enhance the clinical precepting environment for medical students.

Perfil del médico de familia que accede a plazas con tutoría docente de Medicina Familiar y Comunitaria mediante concurso de traslados en Galicia / Profile of the Family Doctor who gains access to positions with teaching tutorship of Family and Community Medicine by means of relocation examination in Galicia

OBJETIVO: Analizar el perfil de los médicos de familia que accedieron a plazas, tanto del cupo general como reservadas para tutores de medicina familiar y comunitaria, mediante concurso de traslados. MATERIAL Y MÉTODOS: Estudio observacional descriptivo. Se establecieron 2 grupos de comparación: en el grupo No Docencia se incluyeron médicos de familia que no solicitaron o no accedieron a plazas de tutoría y en el grupo Docencia, a los que accedieron a plazas reservadas para tutoría. La información se obtuvo de las puntuaciones del concurso de traslados realizado en Galicia en 2018. Se incluyeron 426 médicos de familia que se inscribieron en el concurso: 301 mujeres (70,7%) y 125 hombres (29,3%). Las variables fueron la obtención de plaza con reserva para tutores, el género y los méritos considerados en el concurso: experiencia profesional, formación, publicaciones científicas y lengua gallega. Se utilizaron las pruebas estadísticas no paramétricas de Mann-Whitney y de Kruskal-Wallis, al comprobar la distribución no normal. RESULTADOS: Se encontraron diferencias estadísticamente significativas en la distribución por géneros a favor de los hombres en el grupo Docencia frente al No Docencia, con una p < 0,01. El grupo Docencia obtuvo mejores resultados en formación y publicaciones. Las mujeres obtuvieron resultados estadísticamente significativos a su favor en la variable formación y los hombres en la experiencia. CONCLUSIONES: Para la elección de las plazas docentes en el concurso, las publicaciones y la formación tuvieron un peso importante, pero, teniendo en cuenta una perspectiva de género, un menor porcentaje de mujeres han accedido a las plazas docentes por tener menor puntuación en la categoría de experiencia

OBJECTIVE: To analyse the profile of Family Doctors who gain access to positions, both to the general quota, as well those reserved for teaching tutors of Family and Community Medicine, by means of a relocation competition. MATERIAL AND METHODS: A descriptive observational study was conducted in which 2 comparison groups were established: A Non-Teaching group that did not include Family Doctors who did not request or gain access to tutor positions, and a Teaching group with those that gained access to positions reserved for tutors. The information was obtained from the marks of the relocation competition carried out in Galicia in 2018. A total of 426 General Practitioners that entered the examination were included, of which 301 were female (70.7%) and 125 (29.3%) males. The variables were the obtaining of a position reserved for tutor, gender, and the merits considered in the competition: professional experience, training, scientific publications, and Galician language. The non-parametric statistics tests of Mann-Whitney and Kruskal-Wallis were used, after checking for non-normal distribution. RESULTS: Statistically significant differences were found in the distribution by gender in favour of males in the Teaching group compared to the Non-Teaching group (P<.01). The Teaching group obtained better results in training and publications. The females obtained statistically significant results in their favour in the training variable, and the males in experience. CONCLUSIONS: For the choice of teaching places in relocation interviews and examinations, publications and training had an important weighting; but, taking the gender perspective into account, a lower percentage of women had gained access to teaching positions due to having lower score in the experience category
