Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

To assess the impact of four Patient Information Leaflets (PIL) on patient behaviour in primary care.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

A patient who visited, for a gastroenteritis or a pharyngitis, one GP of the intervention group, received a Patient Information Leaflets (PIL) related to his disease and his age: either the gastroenteritis leaflet for adult or the one for child, either the pharyngitis leaflet for adult or the one for child.
