RT Journal Article SR Electronic T1 Medical audit — a preliminary report from general practice JF The Journal of the Royal College of General Practitioners JO J R Coll Gen Pract FD British Journal of General Practice SP 719 OP 722 VO 29 IS 209 A1 M. P. Ryan A1 I. C. Buchan A1 E. G. Buckley YR 1979 UL http://bjgp.org/content/29/209/719.abstract AB As three single-handed practitioners who work in the same health centre, we decided to review our work in clinical management and preventive medicine. We used data contained in a simple medical information system but, where necessary, referred to the original problem-orientated medical records. The results showed that we did not always reach standards which we considered satisfactory but we feel this type of review is worthwhile and could be applied in many general practices.
