title: Procedural skills for general practice. The results of a Queensland survey.
abstract: The acquisition of procedural skills for general practice, appears to be somewhat haphazard. A list of 139 procedural skills of possible use to a GP was compiled. A survey of sixth year medical students, faculty and hospital teaching staff, and GPs in Queensland was undertaken to evaluate the perceived importance of these skills. The list has been modified to 47 'essential' and 22 'essential or desirable' skills, and could form the basis for more directed learning in the area of procedural skills.
