PY - 2011 DA - 2011/04/07 TI - Revisiting the symptom iceberg in today's primary care: results from a UK population survey JO - BMC Family Practice SP - 16 VL - 12 IS - 1 AB - Recent changes in UK primary care have increased the range of services and healthcare professionals available for advice. Furthermore, the UK government has promoted greater use of both self-care and the wider primary care team for managing symptoms indicative of self-limiting illness. We do not know how the public has been responding to these strategies. The aim of this study was to describe the current use of different management strategies in the UK for a range of symptoms and identify the demographic, socio-economic and symptom characteristics associated with these different approaches.
