ABSTRACT
Background: Primary Health Care is a priority in Cuba, requires a permanent improvement system aimed at professionals to guarantee the quality of the health service.Objective: to identify the regularities of professional improvement on atrial fibrillation at the Turcios Lima Polyclinic in Pinar del Río.
Methods: descriptive cross-sectional study carried out from December 2019 to February 2020. Theoretical and empirical methods were used, such as historical-logical, systemic-structural, documentary review, surveys, and interviews, respectively. In addition, descriptive and inferential statistical methods, in a universe of comprehensive general practitioners (N = 90). The sample was 60 comprehensive general practitioners once the inclusion criteria were applied. The variable studied was professional improvement over atrial fibrillation.
Results: there were limited actions for the development of content about atrial fibrillation in Primary Health Care; in addition to weaknesses in the integration of knowledge, skills and values about said entity, for an adequate diagnosis and stratification of thromboembolic and hemorrhagic risks. The planned professional improvement actions do not make it possible to update and deepen the content on the disease, necessary to transform the reality of the health area.
Conclusions: the professional improvement on atrial fibrillation at the Turcios Lima Polyclinic has limitations to integrate its contents to an adequate diagnosis and stratification of thromboembolic and hemorrhagic risks, which make difficult the efficient performance of the Comprehensive General Physician in Primary Health Care.
