Background

Continuous education of physicians is critical for the

quality of medical care.

Objectives

To investigate the attitudes of general practitioners

towards depression and to evaluate the short- and long-term

impact of a specific designed postgraduate university program in

depression.

Method

In this prospective, interventional study participated

1322-certificated Family Practice specialist. They filled out the

Depression Attitude Questionnaire (DAQ) Spanish validated ver-

sion before starting the educational intervention; an official

approved 12 ECTS postgraduate university program. The partic-

ipant refilled the questionnaires at the end of the course and

6months later.

Results

A total of 885 females and 420 males (mean 48 years)

and with a mean clinical experience of 25 years participated in this

study. Short-termafter training, PGs positively significant (

P

< 0.05)

changed their attitudes in the management of depression in 18

out 20 items of the DAQ. There were not significant changes in

only item 1 related to the number of patients presenting depres-

sive symptoms seen in the last 5 years and the knowledge of the

underlying biochemical abnormality. In the long-term, the posi-

tive effects observed in the short-term did not significantly change.

However, in item 1 a significantly increasewas observed. The effec-

tiveness of the intervention was related nor to the to the age and

sex of the physician nor to the years of medical practice.

Conclusions

A specific designed educational program can

improve the attitudes in depression of GPs. Years of clinical practice

are not a limitation for improving the medical attitudes of General

practitioners in mental health.

Introduction

The nurses occupy the first position of victims of

workplace violence in health professionals’ ranking. While gradu-

ation students, are victims of different aggressions.

Objectives

The goal of this studywas to investigate the perception

of nursing students of a Brazilian public university about violence

manifestation in the university environment.

Aims

Knowing the nursing students perception about violence in

the university environment.

Method

This is a qualitative descriptive exploratory study where

a semi-structuralized interview was used.

Results

The thematic content analysis allowed us to detect three

categories: “interpersonal violence in the relationships established

in the course”, “participation as victim or perpetrator” and “rea-

sons for the occurrence of the violence”. The findings pointed out

power relation inequalities and the occurrence of different types

of violence and the trend in naturalize them. The results point the

necessity to create a system that facilitates abuses denunciation

and that offers support to the victims; investments in intervention

programs that offer knowledge on this subject and improve the

academic relations and prevent maltreatments; and the inclusion

of the violence subject in the graduation curricula.

Conclusion

The professors, as educators and models for future

professionals, must search knowledge on the subject and their

participation as perpetrators or victims. They must participate of

qualification courses that teach them to face the violence in the aca-

demic environment. In such away, pupils andprofessors are trained

to identify and to deal with violence in the academic environment

and out of it.
