Outer regional-, remote-or very remote-based registrars made significantly fewer ED referrals than more urban registrars. Of the problems referred to the ED, 45.5% involved the seeking of in-consultation information or assistance, predominantly from supervisors. Conclusions: Registrars' ED referral rates are nearly twice those of established GPs. The findings of the present study suggest acute illnesses or injuries present registrars with clinical challenges and real learning opportunities, and highlight the importance of continuity of care, even for acute presentations. What is known about the topic?: A GP's decision concerning continued community-versus hospital-based management of acute presentations demands careful consideration of a suite of factors, including implications for patient care and resource expenditure. General practice vocational training is a critical period for the development of GP registrars' long-term patterns of practice. Although limited international evidence suggests GP registrars and early career GPs refer patients to the ED at a higher rate than their more experienced peers, these studies involved small subject numbers and did not investigate associations of registrars making an ED referral. Relevant Australian studies focusing on GP registrars' ED referral patterns are lacking. What does this paper add?: The present ongoing cohort study is the first to establish the patterns of ED referrals made by Australian GP registrars, encompassing five general practice RTPs across five states, with participating registrars practising in urban, rural, remote and very remote practices. Several significant associations were found with GP registrars making ED referrals, including patient age, continuity of care, the registrar's RTP, assistance sought by the registrar and rurality of the registrar's practice. What are the implications for practitioners?: The higher likelihood of GP registrars seeing acute presentations than their more established practice colleagues, coupled with a demonstrated association of registrars seeking in-consultation assistance for such presentations, highlights the importance of GP supervisor accessibi]]> Thu 16 Mar 2023 17:33:37 AEDT ]]> Management of transient ischemic attacks diagnosed by early-career general practitioners: A cross-sectional study https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:43260 Thu 15 Sep 2022 11:06:43 AEST ]]> Identification of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander status by general practice registrars: confidence and associations https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:29493 Thu 04 Nov 2021 10:38:33 AEDT ]]> Problems managed by Australian general practice trainees: results from the ReCEnT (registrar clinical encounters in training) study https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:20731 Sat 24 Mar 2018 08:00:28 AEDT ]]> Responding to registrars' in-consultation calls for assistance: practical implications from the ReCeNT project https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:30247 Sat 24 Mar 2018 07:41:57 AEDT ]]> Antibiotic prescribing for respiratory infections: a cross-sectional analysis of the ReCEnT study exploring the habits of early-career doctors in primary care https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:26889 Sat 24 Mar 2018 07:41:40 AEDT ]]> Test ordering in an evidence free zone: rates and associations of Australian general practice trainees’ vitamin D test ordering https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:27027 Sat 24 Mar 2018 07:30:15 AEDT ]]> In-consultation information and advice-seeking by Australian GP trainees from GP trainers - a cross-sectional analysis. https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:28249 Sat 24 Mar 2018 07:28:33 AEDT ]]> Prevalence and associations of gender concordance in general practice consultations: a cross-sectional analysis https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:23018 Sat 24 Mar 2018 07:16:35 AEDT ]]> The Registrars' Clinical Encounters in Training (ReCEnT) project: educational and research aspects of documenting general practice trainees' clinical experience https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:22881 Sat 24 Mar 2018 07:12:58 AEDT ]]> GP trainees' in-consultation information-seeking: associations with human, paper and electronic sources https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:27838 Mon 13 Jul 2020 13:41:44 AEST ]]> Clinical encounters of Australian general practice registrars with paediatric patients https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:31936 Mon 09 Apr 2018 15:04:18 AEST ]]> The pattern of opioid management by Australian general practice trainees https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:27290 Fri 25 Sep 2020 12:37:05 AEST ]]> Focus on early-career GPs: qualitative evaluation of a multi-faceted educational intervention to improve antibiotic prescribing https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:46567 Fri 25 Nov 2022 11:40:21 AEDT ]]> Reducing general practice trainees' antibiotic prescribing for respiratory tract infections: an evaluation of a combined face-to-face workshop and online educational intervention https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:27837 Fri 22 Apr 2022 10:33:08 AEST ]]> Reducing early career general practitioners' antibiotic prescribing for respiratory tract infections: a pragmatic prospective non-randomised controlled trial https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:33265 Fri 21 Sep 2018 14:23:24 AEST ]]> General practice trainees' clinical experience of dermatology indicates a need for improved education: a cross-sectional analysis from the Registrar Clinical Encounters in Training Study https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:32972 Fri 17 Aug 2018 11:45:43 AEST ]]>
