Permission to reproduce must be sought from the publisher, The Royal Australian College of General Practitioners.BACKGROUND: The relationship between the performance of opportunistic preventive activities in general practice consultations and characteristics of patients, general practitioners, consultations and preventive opportunities is poorly understood. METHODS: We recorded the performance of 11 preventive care activities by 10 GPs in one practice and examined the associations of performance of the preventive activities and the characteristics of the patients, GPs, consultations and preventive opportunities. RESULTS: Every patient, GP, consultation and preventive opportunity characteristic studied was independently significantly associated with the performance of at least two of the preventive activities. DISCUSSION: These findings suggest ways of designing more effective reminders, particularly for patients least likely to receive prevention counselling.Oliver Frank, John Litt and Justin Beilb
