Screening in Primary Care for Alcohol Use Compared With Smoking, Diet, and Physical Activity: A Repeated Population Survey in Sweden.
Journal of Studies on Alcohol and Drugs 2019 January
OBJECTIVE: Screening and brief intervention in primary care for hazardous alcohol use is potentially a means to improve public health but is seldom implemented. There are few comparisons with general practitioner screening for other lifestyle habits.
METHOD: Repeated cross-sectional surveys from 2004, 2008, and 2012 in Sweden were used (N = 28,935) to document general practitioner visitors' reports on being asked and advised about alcohol, tobacco, diet, and physical activity when visiting primary care.
RESULTS: Screening increased for all health behaviors, with the most apparent increase found for alcohol use.
CONCLUSIONS: Screening for alcohol use can efficiently be integrated into health care, along with that for other lifestyle habits.
