Understanding the work of general practitioners: a social science perspective on the context of medical decision making in primary care

Abstract: Background: The work of general practitioners (GPs) is increasingly being looked at from the perspective of the strategies and factors shaping it. This reflects the importance given to primary care services in health care system reform. However, the literature provides little insight into the medical decision-making processes in general practice. Our main objective was to better understand how organizational and environmental factors influence the work of GPs.

“…entretanto, não foi isso que verificamos. apenas três estudos utilizaram efetivamente teorias para analisar os resultados obtidos: Giddens' Structuration Theory (Geneau et al, 2008); Cognitive Continuum Theory (Randell et al, 2009) e Diffusion of Innovation Theory (BeaulIeu et al, 2008).

“…Los tiempos de consulta en el primer caso varían entre 10 y 15 min mientras que en el segundo, lo hacen entre 20 y 45 min 13 .
