This paper reviews published audit activity for a single common condition (asthma). Has this effort brought about better care for the patient? The result of this audit of audits reveals that specialists do follow the guidelines on the management of acute asthma with good results, but that general physicians, in whose care perforce many acute episodes are managed, do not seem to be aware of the published good practice guidelines.
本文回顾了针对单一常见病症(哮喘)已发表的审计活动。这项工作是否为患者带来了更好的护理?对审计工作的这项审查结果显示,专科医生确实遵循急性哮喘管理指南,效果良好,但许多急性发作病例必然由全科医生护理,而他们似乎并未意识到已发表的良好实践指南。
