摘要

The University of Southern California, Division of Research in Medical Education, has conducted a nationwide survey of the professional activities of physicians who provide care for patients with end-stage renal disease. Data from the survey show that ESRD physicians' workloads parallel the busy practices of generalist physicians more than they do the practice patterns of most subspecialists in initial medicine (except that the outpatient load occurs mainly in the dialysis unit). Patient encounter data show that the majority of their visits are with ESRD patients, and that over half of all ESRD patients (facility and self care combined) are seen once a week or more. ESRD physicians report seeing facility hemodialysis patients an average of between 1.6 and 1.7 times a week. There are pronounced differences in the morbidity profiles of patients on different types of dialysis; home hemodialysis patients were found to have low rates of serious systemic illnesses, whereas peritoneal dialysis patients have high rates of diabetes mellitus.
