GPs must make difficult screening and diagnostic decisions regarding genetic testing for different cancers. Educational programs may improve knowledge and enable more appropriate referral.
A postal survey of all general practitioners (GPs) in Northern Ireland (N = 534; response rate = 49.4%) asked GPs if they would attend 3 different types of training courses in genetics.
Almost 75% indicated that they would be likely and/or very likely to attend such courses. Women and GPs who had been qualified recently were most likely to attend (P < .005, P < .05).
The results suggest that GPs are interested in training courses. Male GPs and GPs who have been qualified for longer should be specifically targeted.
全科医生必须就不同癌症的基因检测做出艰难的筛查和诊断决策。教育项目可能会提高知识水平并促成更恰当的转诊。
对北爱尔兰所有全科医生（共534名；回复率 = 49.4%）进行了一次邮寄调查，询问他们是否愿意参加3种不同类型的遗传学培训课程。
近75%的人表示他们很可能和/或非常有可能参加此类课程。女性和近期获得资格的全科医生最有可能参加（P <.005，P <.05）。
结果表明全科医生对培训课程感兴趣。应特别针对男性全科医生和资格获得时间较长的全科医生。
