| description | A cross-sectional study of knowledge, attitudes and practice of general practitioners (GPs) towards complementary and alternative medicine (CAM) was conducted in Doha, Qatar. Out of 119 respondents, 39.1% reported poor knowledge about CAM. Self-reported knowledge was highest for counselling and psychotherapy (69.0%), diet and supplements (68.1%), acupuncture (45.2%), herbal medicine (47.3%) and massage (42.5%). While 83.8% described their attitude to CAM as welcoming and 97.5% were interested to learn more about it, fewer (30.1%) had practised it before, referred patients (24.8%) or asked patients' about their use of CAM (34.8%). Their own lack of knowledge and training in CAM was seen as a barrier to its use by 60.0% of the GPs. Une etude transversale des connaissances, des attitudes et de la pratique des medecins generalistes en matiere de medecine complementaire et alternative a ete conduite a Doha, au Qatar. Parmi les 119 praticiens interroges, 39,5 % d'entre eux ont declare qu'ils la connaissaient peu. Ils ont indique que leurs connaissances a ce sujet concernaient surtout le conseil et la psychotherapie (69,0 %), le regime et les supplements alimentaires (68,1 %), l'acupuncture (45,2 %), les medicaments a base de plantes (47,3 %) et les massages (42,5 %). Alors que 83,8 % d'entre eux decrivent leur attitude vis-a-vis de la medecine complementaire et alternative comme bienveillante, et que 97,5 % souhaiteraient la connaitre davantage, peu de praticiens (30,1 %) l'ont deja exercee. Ils etaient 24,8 % a avoir oriente leurs patients vers des medecins la pratiquant, et 34,8 % ont deja interroge leurs malades sur leur usage de la medecine complementaire et alternative. Enfin, 60 % d'entre eux consideraient leur manque de connaissances ou de formation dans ce domaine comme un obstacle a son utilisation. |
