[The attitude of primary health care physicians in the metropolitan area of Barcelona about the diagnosis and treatment of Helicobacter pylori infection in gastroduodenal diseases].

Abstract

The attitude of primary care physicians in the metropolitan area of Barcelona with regard to the diagnosis and treatment of infection by Helicobacter pylori in gastroduodenal diseases largely reflects the recommendations recently made by several scientific societies. In general there are no significant differences with respect to this attitude in regard to the age and sex of the physician, although their training was found to influence in some of the responses analyzed.
