Implementing guidelines in general practice care.
Open accessAbstract
Classic approaches to implementing new information fail because firstly too little attention is given to the specific barriers to change in certain groups of doctors and practices. Also too much effort is spent on improving knowledge and attitudes and too little on improving skills and actual behaviour; too little is known about interventions and programmes that are really effective in changing GPs’ performance. In this paper I shall explore the current views and research on implementing guidelines and suggest some recommendations on methods and approaches to quality improvement in general practice. I shall discuss in more detail some of the general principles of promoting change in clinical care highlighted by Stocking in this journal. (excerpt)

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
