Why are women at higher risk of low value practice and consequently also at higher risk of ADVERSE EVENTS? Why in case of female patients, GPs more frequently violate recomendations (do DO NOT DO)?

OVERGEND project aim to analyze the phenomenon of overtreatment initiated in primary care from a gender perspective to reduce the number of females suffering from adverse events due to receiving unnecessary treatments. Also, to establish a recommendation for future overuse research incorporating a gender perspective.

Prof. Jose J. Mira Solves invited experts from Portugal (Prof. P. Sousa), Finland (Prof. S. Tella), Croatia (dr. B. Knezevic) and Slovakia (Prof. A. Madarasova Geckova) to discuss findings, interpretations and recommendations.
