Excerpt

Previous findings show, two years after Primary Care Practitioners’ participation in an interactive pedagogic case-based learning program [1], that a significant reduction of blood lipid levels of their patients was achieved [2], and reported that the educational intervention was cost effective [3]. The aim of this study was to determine the size of any patient survival benefit from such interactive case-based learning method [1] aimed at facilitating implementation of guidelines in primary care. …
