[Evaluation of theoretical knowledge of diabetics in an interdisciplinary program].
Using an instrument of evaluation of theoretical knowledge, the authors have assessed the capacity of understanding and memorizing often groups of diabetes' carriers, that were being followed by a multiprofessional team from the ambulatory of the HURNP. The evaluation included the discussion of a variety of subjects which were part of the activities of an Educational Program. Only one group of patients showed a satisfactory performance. Individual analysis showed that young diabetes' carriers, that were motivated and had good level of understanding, had a better performance. It was concluded that the evaluation allows the selection of patients that need specific reinforcement and that a plan of activities can be elaborated according to the tested subjects.
