Rates of surgery for gynecology, general surgery, otorhinolaryngology, and urology have either decreased or reached a plateau since 1974. Increasing rates are demonstrated for orthopedics, ophthalmology, cardiothoracic surgery, and neurosurgery. These changes are analyzed. Such data can help health care planners to more accurately predict the future of surgical health care delivery.
自1974年以来,妇科、普通外科、耳鼻喉科和泌尿外科的手术率要么下降,要么趋于平稳。骨科、眼科、心胸外科和神经外科的手术率则呈上升趋势。对这些变化进行了分析。这些数据有助于医疗保健规划者更准确地预测外科医疗服务的未来。
