Background: Asthma is a public health problem in the world, so updating the guidelines for the diagnosis and treatment of asthma is based primarily on the practice of primary care physicians. Educational interventions are useful for increasing knowledge.
Objective: To compare the level of knowledge of asthma before and after an educational intervention.
Methods: A quasi-experimental prospective study was conducted in general and family practitioners and pediatricians who attended a training workshop on general aspects of asthma and current guidelines for diagnosis and treatment (GINA 2014). A questionnaire consisting of 11 multiple choice questions relating to fundamental aspects of the disease and diagnosis, classification, treatment and management of attacks, was used in two assessments, baseline and post-intervention.
Results: A total of 178 patients participated in the study, with knowledge pre-intervention at 25.5 points and post-intervention at 97.5 points on a scale of 100, with p < 0.05.
Conclusion: Educational interventions are inexpensive and effective tools to increase the knowledge of health professionals, and they have an impact on improving patient care.
