They principally target women who attend health centres with signs of discomfort with no organic basis finding. The strategy was evaluated through a quasi-experimental longitudinal design, with a mixed methodology. Information was collected from 228 women with a battery of scales and from an analysis of health system databases. Ten in-depth interviews with women were conducted, and 3 discussion groups with professionals. The aim of this article was to introduce the GRUSE strategy as a non-medical alternative intervention and to present the research design, seeking to identify the evidence of this practice implemented in primary health centres of Andalusia (Spain).esAttribution-NonCommercial-NoDerivatives 4.0 Internationalhttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0/Evaluación de ProgramaGenderGrupos de mujeresGéneroHealth promotionProgramme evaluationPromoción de SaludSalutogenesisSalutogénesisWomen's groupsActivities of Daily LivingDatabases, FactualFemaleGender IdentityHealth PromotionHumansMedicalizationMedically Unexplained SymptomsMental HealthPublic HealthSelf-Help GroupsSpainWomen's Healthresearch article30337181open access10.1016/j.gaceta.2018.06.0141578-1283https://doi.org/10.1016/j.gaceta.2018.06.014
