The laboratory and x-ray studies performed on 148 outpatients were monitored to see how long it took for the results to be obtained, reviewed, and inserted into the medical record. An average of 27.0 days was required for all of these tasks. This mundane, unwieldly problem clearly deserves more attention, especially in outpatient clinics at teaching hospitals.
对148名门诊患者进行的实验室和X光检查进行了监测，以查看获取结果、审核并将其录入病历需要多长时间。完成所有这些任务平均需要27.0天。这个平凡又棘手的问题显然值得更多关注，尤其是在教学医院的门诊诊所。
