为了确定初级卫生保健提供者 (PCP) 在帕金森病方面的知识差距，在关于早期帕金森病识别和治疗的一小时继续医学教育 (CME) 讲座之前和之后收集了来自参加年会的 104 名 PCP 样本的数据。主要结果指标是每位 PCP 在讲座前正确回答问题的比例。我们测量了讲座前后正确答案比例的变化（delta）。参加讲座的 PCP 中有 99% 返回了调查问卷。听课前对帕金森病的了解程度较低，特别是在管理（61.4%）和诊断（34.4%）方面。 PCP 的感知知识与基线管理中正确回答的数量无关。 CME 讲座后，考试成绩显着提高。我们的结果表明，PCP 对帕金森病诊断和治疗的基线知识以及对此主题的自我认知知识相对有限。适当地，美国的重新认证计划不仅仅依赖于自我认知。需要进行纵向研究来确定 CME 对帕金森病知识保留和患者护理的影响。
In order to determine primary health care providers' (PCPs) knowledge gaps on Parkinson's disease, data were collected before and after a one-hour continuing medical education (CME) lecture on early Parkinson's disease recognition and treatment from a sample of 104 PCPs participating at an annual meeting. The main outcome measure was the proportion of questions answered correctly by each PCP before the lecture. We measured the change in proportion of correct answers before and after the lecture (delta). Ninety-nine percent of the PCPs who attended the lecture returned the questionnaire. The level of knowledge on Parkinson's disease before the lecture was relatively low, particularly in management (61.4%) and diagnosis (34.4%). PCPs' perceived knowledge was not associated with the number of correct responses on management at baseline. Test scores significantly improved after the CME lecture. Our results show that PCPs' baseline knowledge of diagnosis and management of Parkinson's disease and self-perceived knowledge on this topic are relatively limited. Appropriately, United States reaccreditation programs do not only rely on self-perception. Longitudinal studies are needed to determine the impact of CME in knowledge retention and patient care in Parkinson's disease.
