PIDCAP PROJECT
Over the last few months, under the umbrella of the PIDCAP project in which the BCN PID Foundation collaborates, several educational
EARLY DIAGNOSIS OF PID IN PRIMARY CARE CENTERS
workshops where carried out by Dr. Jacques Rivière. The attendees were primary care physicians and nurses from the SAP Muntanya area in Barcelona. This program is included in the educational and informative section of the project in order to increase PID’s awareness among health professionals. The project aims to improve earlier diagnosis of PID thanks to the daily work of primary care professionals through a computerizedbased tool in ECAP system using PID alarm signs. This approach will allow better coordination between primary care centers and reference hospitals. Furthermore, this tool will unify the diagnostic and follow-up criteria in the entire network of health care centers of the Catalan Health Institute (ICS), offering a better and uniform care to citizens.
