La enfermedad por el nuevo coronavirus continúa azotando a la humanidad. Su conocimiento profundo constituye una necesidad, como único camino para erradicarla. Se realizó una investigación cuasi experimental tipo intervención educativa con el objetivo de fortalecer conocimientos sobre la COVID-19 en médicos generales básicos recién egresados de la universidad eincorporados a ejercer como médicos de familias, pertenecientes al Policlínico Jimmy Hirzel de Bayamo, provincia Granma. La muestra la integraron 42 médicos, y se caracterizó según género e índice académico del egresado. Se evaluó el nivel de conocimiento enadecuado e inadecuado, según respuestas acerca de generalidades de la enfermedad, manifestaciones clínicas, medios diagnósticos y su interpretación, medidas de prevención y conducta a seguir ante casos sospechosos y positivos; se precisó fuente de adquisición de conocimientos. Se emplearon métodos teóricos, empíricos y estadísticos. Como resultados predominaron las mujeres (59,5 por ciento), y el índice académico del egresado entre 4 y 4,7 puntos (73,8 por ciento). Los conocimientos sobre la conducta a seguir por el médico de familia con los grupos vulnerables sospechosos de COVID-19 fueron inadecuados en el 69,1 por ciento de los médicos, situación que se modificó favorablemente con la intervención educativa, al alcanzar el 85,7 por ciento adecuados conocimientos. En el resto de los temas destacó el nivel adecuado de conocimiento desde la etapa inicial de la investigación. Se concluyó que la intervención permitió revelar las fisuras en el conocimiento de los médicos recién graduados y potenciarlo en todos los temas abordados(AU)
ABSTRACT
The new coronavirus disease continues to plague humanity. Its deep knowledge is a necessity, as the only way to eradicate it. A quasi-experimental research type educational intervention was carried out with the aim of strengthening knowledge about COVID-19 in basic general practitioners recently graduated from the university and incorporated to practice as family doctors, belonging to the Jimmy Hirzel Polyclinic of Bayamo, Granma province. The sample was made up of 42 doctors, and it was characterized according to gender and academic index of the graduate. The level of knowledge was evaluated as adequate and inadequate, according to answers about generalities of the disease, clinical manifestations, diagnostic means and their interpretation, prevention measures and behavior to follow in suspicious and positive cases; source of knowledge acquisition was specified. Theoretical, empirical and statistical methods were used. As results, women (59.5 percent) predominated, and the graduate's academic index between 4 and 4.7 points (73.8 percent). Knowledge about the behavior to be followed by the family doctor with the vulnerable groups suspected of COVID-19 was inadequate in 69.1 percent of the doctors, a situation that was favorably modified with the educational intervention, reaching 85.7 percent adequate knowledge. In the rest of the topics, the adequate level of knowledge was highlighted from the initial stage of the research. It was concluded that the intervention made it possible to reveal the gaps in the knowledge of recently graduated doctors and to enhance it in all the topics addressed(EU)
