Welcome to the 26th WONCA Europe Virtual Conference Programme Scheduling

This round table combines short clarifying presentations with the opportunity to practice with state-of-the art infographics of new diabetic treatment and a “shared decision making” tool for people already taking statins to define their risks. More than 40 years ago, General Practitioners have initiated the development of clinical practice guidelines in Primary Care. We are now in transition from EBM and guidelines towards Shared Decision Making and, lately, using patient reported outcomes and big data (value-based health care). This round table show you our learning curve of projects on implementation of Shared Decision Making for patients with cardiovascular risks. We will focus on the main challenges that we now face in being inclusive to all patients. We face the complex problems of communicating risks and benefits effectively, especially for doctors with limited numeracy and patients with limited health literacy. We face the complex problems of making trade-offs between initiating drug treatment and lifestyle change. We face the challenges of really getting to the heart of the matter; to align our counselling to what matters most to the patient in his or her goals in quality of life and preferences for treatment modalities. Combining beautiful infographics and SDM tools from the BMJ Rapid Recommendations with excellent speakers and the opportunity to experience the real stuff, it will be MAGIC.
