Abstract

Introduction: Primary health care (PHC) is responsible for the integral and longitudinal care of the user within the context of their family and community, in addition to organizing the flow of patients through the health system, so it is important to constantly update the scientific team. health. Furthermore, the monitoring of individuals with endocrinological diseases is a frequent demand in basic health units. Objective: To assess the satisfaction and perception of professionals with this educational strategy. Material and Methods: A virtual continuing education project in endocrinology was carried out during 6 months of weekly meetings with 128 physicians. After this period, a semi-open on-line questionnaire was carried out. Quantitative analysis was performed through frequency distribution of tabulated data and qualitative data were analyzed through thematic content analysis proposed by Bardin. Results: 44 answers were obtained from the on-line questionnaire by the PHC physicians. The class format that resulted in the best use was the "presentation and discussion" model. On the other hand, the "slideshow only" format had the worst evaluation. In the evaluation of the various topics presented, there was greater positive repercussion topics such as insulin therapy and drug treatment in diabetes mellitus 2, chronic kidney disease and cardiovascular risk staging to clinical practice. Others reported challenges regarding the time of the meetings and the form of presentation of the class. Twelve discursive responses were obtained: seven (58.3%) reported satisfaction and benefits, two (16.7%) reported criticism and three (25%) suggestions regarding the project. Conclusion: The results showed that virtual continuing education in endocrinology presented itself as an adequate and satisfactory tool for PHC physicians.
