This study examines the confidence of general practice registrars in managing paediatric consultations and whether confidence varies by prevocational training type.

Predominantly hospital-based prevocational paediatric training offers limited exposure to – and, thus, confidence in – managing behavioural, mental health and developmental issues.

The aim of this paper is to evaluate prevalence, associated GP characteristics and cost of GP-provided low-value paediatric primary care for five common paediatric conditions.

The aim of this study was to address knowledge gaps around the case mix of general practice paediatric consultations, as well as GP referral patterns, associated factors and costs.
