The majority of respondents reported using simple terminology such as \u201cabnormal protein\u201d to describe <jats:styled-content style=\"fixed-case\">MGUS<\/jats:styled-content> to their patients. Some reported using analogies that the patient was more likely to be familiar with, such as comparing a paraprotein to the finding of a mole or lump. Education level, age and cognitive ability were cited as important factors in deciding how and whether information was relayed to patients. Many respondents supported frequent follow\u2010up and the transfer of low\u2010risk <jats:styled-content style=\"fixed-case\">MGUS<\/jats:styled-content> patients to primary care. However, several highlighted a lack of awareness and understanding of <jats:styled-content style=\"fixed-case\">MGUS<\/jats:styled-content> outside of haematology, particularly within primary care. Only 41.8% of respondents reported providing all of their patients with an information leaflet.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Conclusions<\/jats:title><jats:p>With an ageing population, it is important to consider management strategies for <jats:styled-content style=\"fixed-case\">MGUS<\/jats:styled-content> patients.
