Arm Intervention/treatment
Active Comparator: Patient Information Leaflets
Patient Information Leaflets (PIL) is given to the patient during consultation
Procedure: Patient Information Leaflets
Patient Information Leaflets (PIL) about adult gastroenteritis, children gastroenteritis, adult pharyngitis or either children pharyngitis in consultation room

Placebo Comparator: usual consultation without PIL
no particular intervention during consultation for the patient.
Procedure: usual consultation
No particular intervention during consultation for the Patient. No Information Leaflets (PIL) is given




Primary Outcome Measures :
  1. The primary outcome measure was the mean behaviour score [ Time Frame: In ten to fifteen days after patient after the visit ]
    All patients were called, ten to fifteen days after the visit, to answer a questionnaire on their behaviour related to the disease since they visited the GP. It permitted to calculate a behaviour score. Better was the score, better was the patient's behaviour related to his disease.


Secondary Outcome Measures :
  1. the mean comprehension score [ Time Frame: in ten to fifteen days after the visit ]
    All patients (or their parent) were called, ten to fifteen days after the visit, to answer a questionnaire on their comprehension related to the disease since they visited the GP. It permitted to calculate a comprehension score. Better was this score, better was the patient's comprehension.

  2. number of visit of patient's family for the same pathology [ Time Frame: in ten to fifteen days after the visit ]
    we get the information by a phone call to the patient, in ten to fifteen days after the visit
