The Quality of Care Received by Older Patients in 15 University-Based Ambulatory Practices.

Siu, Albert L.; And Others

Journal of Medical Education, v63 n3 p155-61 Mar 1988

Medical records of older outpatients treated at 15 university teaching hospitals were reviewed to evaluate how their medical problems were managed in university-based internal medicine practices. The finding suggests either that these patients were extremely atypical or that their geriatric problems were unrecognized. (Author/MLW)
