Article Synopsis
  • Primary care plays a significant role in the development and promotion of Self-Management Education and Support (SMES) programs, especially for chronic diseases like diabetes, cancer, and cardiovascular issues.

  • The findings indicate a lack of community involvement and highlight opportunities to enhance the interdisciplinary approach in SMES program design and implementation.

  • Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is often underdiagnosed worldwide, prompting a study to see if using GOLD questions could help identify new cases in primary care settings in France.
  • The study involved 47 general practitioners who enrolled 3,162 patients aged 40-80 over four months, examining the effectiveness of four different approaches, including standard care and various methods involving GOLD questions and COPD coordination.
  • Results showed that all new COPD cases (0.8%) were found in the intervention groups, with COPD coordination significantly improving detection rates, highlighting the need for effective strategies to find COPD cases in primary care globally.
