Experiencia con el proyecto ENDMAP, una actividad formativa para médicos de familia en endocrinología y nutrición

Abstract

It is well known that primary care (PC) in Spain is under considerable stress due to the large volume of care it provides. The aging of the population, the increase in chronic pathologies such as diabetes and cardiovascular risk factors (hypertension and hyperlipidemia) and the growing complexity of diagnostic methods and treatments make it necessary for Family Physicians to be constantly updated. For this reason, the ENDMAP project was designed, a practical training program for Family Physicians in Endocrinology. This article presents how the project has evolved over its 5 editions and the results of the evaluation of the project by both attendees and trainers in terms of interest and usefulness.
