Only a minority suffering from mental illness are treated by the specialist psychiatric service. The majority of psychiatrically ill patients seen in general practice suffer from minor neuroses, personality disorders and situational reactions and can be appropriately treated by the primary care team. However, a significant degree of morbidity, some of it severe, fails to be identified in general practice and the identification and treatment of psychiatric disorder varies according to the GP's interest and attitudes.

AbstractAcute Otitis Media is a common condition of childhood which potentially has a number of significant sequelae including the development of Otitis Media with Effusion (‘Glue Ear’). A general practice based study is described which assesses the implementation of a protocol for the follow up of Acute Otitis Media by the primary care team. The results of this study show that following the introduction of a follow up protocol a significantly improved rate of followup was achieved with resultant improvements in the identification of ‘Glue Ear’ and hence more appropriate referral for ENT care.

SummaryThe patients seen at five psychiatric clinics in general practice (GP) serving an urban population of 78, 200 are described, and their attitudes to the clinic compared with those for conventional out-patient clinics. The GP psychiatric clinics were strongly preferred, mainly because of their ease of access and absence of stigma; 19 per cent of the patients seen would not have attended a hospital clinic. The patients seen encompassed the entire range of psychiatric disorder, but most were treated in the clinic or by other members of the primary care team. It is concluded that GP psychiatric clinics offer a way of achieving better community psychiatry without any need for increased resources.
