In this paper we have investigated "to what degree patients trust their regular doctor to be fully informed about the prevalence of infectious diseases in their neighbourhood", and what general practitioners (GPs) actually know. A representative sample of one thousand Norwegians (potential patients) was interviewed by telephone, and 13 GPs were interviewed individually or in focus groups. Nearly half of the patients trusted their GP to be more or less "fully informed" about the prevalence of infectious diseases in their neighbourhoods, while the GPs in reality were not well informed. We conclude that new surveillance solutions are needed. One promising approach is electronic retrieval of symptom data directly from patients.
在本文中，我们调查了“患者在多大程度上信任他们的常规医生能够充分了解其所在社区传染病的流行情况”，以及全科医生（GPs）实际了解多少。通过电话采访了1000名挪威人（潜在患者）的代表性样本，并对13名全科医生进行了单独或焦点小组访谈。近一半的患者信任他们的全科医生或多或少“充分了解”其所在社区传染病的流行情况，而实际上全科医生了解得并不充分。我们得出结论，需要新的监测解决方案。一种有前景的方法是直接从患者那里电子检索症状数据。
