TL;DR: Most UK general practices prescribe antibiotics to young and middle-aged adults with respiratory infections at rates that are considerably in excess of what is clinically justified, which will fuel antibiotic resistance.
Journal ArticleDOI
GPs’ management strategies for patients with insomnia: a survey and qualitative interview study
TL;DR: GPs often find 'sleep hygiene' advice is insufficient for managing insomnia and report frequently prescribing medication, including amitriptyline (off licence), which is often based on perceived patient pressure for a prescription.
Journal ArticleDOI
Effectiveness and safety of electronically delivered prescribing feedback and decision support on antibiotic use for respiratory illness in primary care: REDUCE cluster randomised trial.
Martin Gulliford,A Toby Prevost,A Toby Prevost,Judith Charlton,Dorota Juszczyk,Jamie Soames,Lisa McDermott,Kirin Sultana,Mark Wright,Robin Fox,Alastair D Hay,Paul Little,Michael Moore,Lucy Yardley,Lucy Yardley,Mark Ashworth +15 more
TL;DR: Electronically delivered interventions, integrated into practice workflow, result in moderate reductions of antibiotic prescribing for respiratory tract infections in adults, which are likely to be of importance for public health.
Journal ArticleDOI
Transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) for schizophrenia
TL;DR: The effects of Transcranial magnetic stimulation alone, compared with sham TMS or with 'standard management' and any other comparison interventions in reducing psychotic symptoms associated with schizophrenia are estimated.
Journal ArticleDOI
Understanding the delayed prescribing of antibiotics for respiratory tract infection in primary care: a qualitative analysis
TL;DR: Delayed prescribing is encouraged in primary care, but is not always implemented successfully and greater uniformity within and between practices in the UK is needed to operationalise delayed prescribing, as well as providing feedback on the uptake of antibiotics.
