Registry of Trialsclinicaltrials.gov
Year 2001
General practitioners play a key role in the management of one of the most complex problems facing the health care system: the large group of patients with unexplained medical symptoms, but effective treatment strategies are lacking in primary care. The purpose of this study is to compare a new intervention delivered by the general practitioner versus re-attribution of symptoms, which is the currently recommended best treatment for patients with high levels of medically unexplained physical symptoms.
