Authors

Abstract

Introduction: an element that distinguishes health professionals, and especially medical specialists, is continuous professional improvement.

Objective: to expose the result of the implementation of a professional improvement program for the angiologist on chronic arterial insufficiency.

Methods: an educational research with a dialectical hermeneutic approach was carried out in the angiology and vascular surgery service of the General Teaching Provincial Hospital of Ciego de Ávila, in 2021. The study population was made up of all the specialists directly linked to patient care in the province of Ciego de Ávila (19). The Wilcoxon signed-rank hypothesis test was used to evaluate transformations before and after applying the professional improvement activities. Ethical principles were met.

Results: the actions of the improvement program were implemented in three stages: theoretical updating, training orientation for diagnosis and demonstration with real cases. The transformations in the specialists with statistical significance (α = 0.023) in the evaluated indicators were corroborated and the qualitative transformations were specified.

Conclusions: quantitative and qualitative transformations were revealed in the preparation of angiologists regarding the application of novel regenerative medicine treatments for chronic arterial insufficiency, the adequate management of the complications produced and the follow-up of the patients
