Zur historischen Entwicklung der deutschen Gesundheitsversorgung und ihrer Reformansätze
How do patients expect the mental health service system to act? Testing the WHO responsiveness concept for its appropriateness in mental health care
Health in the Context of Growing Old
Senior citizens have become a major part of the clientele of general practitioners and home care nurses due to a major demographic transition in most western countries. How do the health concepts in professional practice reflect these trends? Research has largely investigated the health concepts of lay people. This study is focused on the representations of health in old age held by two groups of professionals- general practitioners and nurses-bo…

Hospital Outcomes Research in Germany
OBJECTIVES: The authors assess the feasibility of using retrospective, indication-specific patient surveys to conduct hospital outcomes research in Germany. Surgical outcome and patient satisfaction were examined in patients who underwent common elective surgical procedures. METHODS: Using the International Classification of Diseases Ninth Revision coding available in the Schwäbisch Gmünd health insurance data base, all patients for a defined per…
Organochlorine residues in human breast milk
STUDY OBJECTIVE--The study aimed to assess through a sentinel practice network the validity of data on levels of organochlorine residues in human milk along with personal, lifestyle, and exposure variables of breastfeeding women; to compare the results of this new approach with those of the Lower Saxony breast milk surveillance programme; and to test hypotheses on potential determinants of contamination levels. DESIGN--Eligible women were enrolle…
Effects of the German 1993 health reform law upon primary care practitioners' individual performance
An empirical study in Lower Saxony aimed to investigate any changes in primary care physicians' diagnostic and therapeutic strategies as a result of Germany's 1993 health reform act (known as the Gesundheitsstruktur Gesetz or GSG), which included the countrywide implementation of a strict drug budget. A sentinel network consisting of a 37% sample of 350 randomly selected doctors (n = 130, GPs, general internists) was established in Lower Saxony. …
