Practice determinants for adherence to the Guide for the Comprehensive Clinical Care of Dengue Patients, Urabá (Colombia). A multifaceted approach to implementation research

Although barriers outweighed facilitators for GACIPD adherence, determinants for its use were generally positive, as most participants reported it as being a complete, documented, and easy-to-implement guide. The lack of knowledge of the guidelines impacting health professional's decision making was identified as a potentially modifiable barrier, and educational strategies could be implemented to overcome it. The region requires greater emphasis on the management of chronic health conditions, comorbidities, and coinfections of dengue with other endemic diseases.
