Motivated GPs got education:
15% of invited GPs from the
Region participated in the training program, and 8.6% (28)
recruited patient into the study, which offered a 40 hours
training program. Patient-focused preventive consultation was
an important part.
Fee for extra time:
The GPs got fee for courses and preventive
health consultations.
Find patients who need some “intervention”:
A screening
Questionnaire (Q33) on own resources, network, lifestyle and
social conditions was completed by 2,056 patients 20-45 years
old when coming to the clinic for any reason. The 30%withmost
psycho-social problems ( >7) were invited to participate and
randomized to control or intervention with two consultations
with their GP. One- year postal follow-up.
Motivate patients who feel they need some changes in thier
daily life:
A baseline-Questionnaire (Q0) with 84 questions
on life conditions, health, life style and social problems was
“priming” the participants to the patient-focused consultation.
Patients might choose one or two goals for a better life.
Discuss resources, barriers and time schedule for chosen
changes:
Important to explore the patient’s agenda and
resources and support self-efficacy.
A 20 minutes follow-up within three months:
What has
succeeded and what is difficult and why? Support self-efficacy
again.
A one-year questionnaire (Q1) like Q0. What has changed
during the year?
Results:
After one year the intervention group had significant
better SF-12 mental score 4,3 (1,6-6,9), fewer problems (10,0-
8,2= 1,8 problems) and the overweight who had prioritized
weight-loss had mean weight loss of 4,73 kg (95% CI: 1,8-7,7).
