title: [General practice and preventive activities in a Local Health Unit in Lazio].
abstract: The Authors describe the results of a survey addressed to evaluate GP's opinions and behaviours regarding prevention. The GP's report they offer health informations about cardiovascular diseases and diabetes very often (score 3.6 and 3.4) and junior doctors (under 45 year) satisfy this request significantly more than senior doctors (p = 0.0057). The GP's consider their clinics the best place were to carry out health promotion activities (score: 3.8) and 85% of them would like to have a health promotion centre within their District (in italian: Local Health Unit), mainly to increase the coordination of GP's activities.
