ABSTRACT
Background: Educational curricula require constant
improvement to respond to the needs of students,
institutions and society.
Objective:To evaluate the Plan de Estudios 2010 of the
Facultad de Medicina de la Universidad Nacional
Autónoma de México.
Methods: Documentary and qualitative study of three
phases. First, revision of trends of general medicine in
special databases and comparison of curricula between
universities. Second, focus groups with clinical teachers
and basic sciences to investigate experiences and
opinions in relation to trends in general medicine. Third,
a "Generalists Committee" was convened to whom the
results were presented (phase one and two) and the
recommendations were adapted to adapt the results to
the general practitioner's context. The participants were
informed about the research objective and their
participation was voluntary, the anonymity of theirs
comments was protected.
Results: The trend towards specialization in clinical
practice defines the future of general medicine, and the
administrative uses have an impact on the practices of
the general practitioner and on the patient's medical
relationship.
Conclusion: Various aspects mainly educational and
assistance hindered the quality of the practice of general
medicine
