Abstract

SENADO DUMOY, Justo. Metodología para el análisis de los casos de adultos fallecidos en el nivel primario de salud. Rev Cubana Med Gen Integr [online]. 2000, vol.16, n.6, pp.609-620. ISSN 0864-2125.

In order to meet the pedagogical need determined by the non-existance of a methodology that guarantees the adecuate fulfilment of the teaching meetings where the cases of dead adults are discussed, and taking into consideration that this influences negatively on the teaching and educative training of the professionals at the primary health care level and on the quality of the services they render to the population, we made an investigation at the "13 de Marzo" Teaching Polyclinic, where we applied the "Methodology for the Analysis at the Primary Health Care Level of the Dead Adult Cases" to a total of 30 of these meetings so as to organize and direct the development of these activities and to evaluate the competence and performance of the professionals. This methodology encouraged the accomplishment and systematization of these meetings and contributed to improve their quality and efficiency. Due to its integrality, objectivity and contribution to the scientific thought and to the application of the clinical method and of the didactic principles, the methodology we propose is considered as a valuable tool for teaching, medical assistance and research and as a complement of the evaluative system in Comprehensive General Medicine. This is, in short, a tool for improving the competence and performance of professionals

Keywords : PRIMARY HEALTH CARE [methods]; TASK PERFORMANCE AND ANALYSIS; CLINICAL COMPETENCE; QUALITY OF HEALTH CARE; MORTALITY.
