摘要
In this article the activities of the diabetes education study group (DESG) are presented. It is an important example of the coordination of the European patient education in the field of diabetes. Given the therapeutic role of patient education, doctors must be involved in the entire process, as members of the multi-professional team, who carry the responsibility for the planning and implementation of the educational process. Based on these assumptions, the DESG concentrated on the following activities: workshops, congresses, teaching letters, a 5-min education kit, a web-sire, and a basic curriculum in therapeutic patient education. The future of therapeutic patient education in the field of diabetes is discussed. (C) 2001 Elsevier Science Ireland Ltd. All rights reserved.
