MARTINEZ CALVO, Silvia. Valoración epidemiológica de las actividades de atención primaria de salud. Rev Cubana Med Gen Integr [online]. 2003, vol.19, n.1, pp. 0-0. ISSN 1561-3038.
The concept of Primary Health Care is analyzed and its basic activities explained in the classical Alma-Atá Declaration are described together with the presentation of a summarized epidemiological assessment of these activities and their carrying out by the health team of the doctor´s office, whose work in the last 10 years has focused, in a prioritized and paradoxical way, on the non-critical implementation of control programs and this tends to distort its social mission. Under the present circumstances in which the national health care system is under discussion, the topic of this paper attempts to encourage alternatives that will finally reform it like those aimed at re-orient the performance of the family physician and nurse that is essentially based on the Primary Health Care.
