Kırsal hastanede sınırlı fizibilite ile genel cerrahi uygulamaları; Retrospektif kohort çalışma

Amaç: Kırsal alanda yaşayan birçok sakin, sağlık hizmetlerine erişimleri, kent dışı bölgelerde yaşayanlara göre daha zordur. ABD nüfusunun %20'sinin kırsal bölgelerde yaşıyor olmasına rağmen, hekimlerin sadece %9'u bu alanlarda çalışıyor ve özellikle genel cerrahlar küçük kırsal kasabalarda yetersiz kalmış gibi görünüyor. Bu çalışma ilçe devlet hastanesinde genel cerrahi açıdan yapılan uygulamaların tespiti amacıyla planlandı.

General surgery service with limited feasibility in a rural hospital; Retrospective cohort study

Aim: Many residents living in rural areas have access to health services more difficult than those living in urban areas. Although 20% of the US population lives in rural areas, only 9% of physicians work in these areas, and in particular general surgeons appear to be inadequate in small rural towns. This study was planned in order to determine the applications made from the general surgery in the district state hospital.
