Impact of Cognitive & Metacognitive Performance on Knowledge Learning When Conducting Therapeutic Education Programs

FTE includes organized awareness, information, learning and psychological and social assistance about the disease, prescribed treatments, various treatments offered, as well as information on organization of the global health system, and health behaviours. Performed by health professionals trained in this practice, FTE is intended to help patients and their close relatives and to understand their pathology, their treatments, collaborate with health care teams, and maintain or improve their quality of life.
