A medical textbook presenting a selection of diseases registered in the Dutch primary care registration network named ‘Family Medicine Network’ (FaMe-Net). Data on all registered conditions in primary care can be found at www.famenet.nl/morbidity-data. The chapters teach the user to answer epidemiological questions themselves using data on the website and help interpret the numbers. Each chapter presents the incidence and prevalence of the selected condition based on the morbidity data registered from 2014 up to and including 2021. Chapters also show the symptoms/complaints or requests that patients present to their general practitioner at the initial stage, and interventions (policy) by GPs. The clinical course and registration of the condition are also described.
