Abstract

Promoting self care for children with acute viral illness is an opportunity for relieving pressure on primary care. Carers may return for a second consultation and expect antibiotic treatment if they are not given a clear idea of what to expect or if their child fails to recover as predicted.1 We therefore set out to describe the clinical course of suspected acute viral infection of the upper respiratory tract in children who consult their general practitioner. We wanted to help clinicians to better predict the course of the condition.
