Implementation and evaluation of early gastroscopy for patients with dyspepsia and warning signs in Primary Care.

Introduction: Dyspepsia is a common disorder in both Primary (PC) and Specialised Care (SC). Gastroscopy is recommended at the start of the study if there are warning signs, although it is not always available in PC.

Objectives And Methods: We developed a pilot project establishing an early gastroscopy programme for patients with dyspepsia and warning signs in PC, subsequently extending it to the entire healthcare area.
