461 randomly selected eyecare patients were screened for systemic hypertension at the clinic of the University Optometric Center, State College of Optometry, State University of New York. The results of this survey showed 52 screening failures, 30 of whom had previously been identified as having hypertension. The study showed that the screening and follow-up added $2.00 per patient to the chair cost. The authors concluded that the information provided to our patients, students and practitioners warrants this cost.
在纽约州立大学验光学院大学验光中心诊所，对461名随机挑选的眼科护理患者进行了系统性高血压筛查。这项调查结果显示，有52例筛查失败，其中30例之前已被确诊患有高血压。研究表明，筛查和后续跟进使每位患者的诊疗成本增加了2美元。作者得出结论，向我们的患者、学生和从业者提供的信息证明了这笔费用是合理的。
