Ambulatory care of aging women: a gynecologist's point of view.
The purpose of this presentation has been to describe, in a very general way, the gynecologic problems of elderly women and of the system available to provide gynecologic services to them on an ambulatory basis. Several suggestions to improve care are made. Some can be implemented readily, but others will require new and additional personnel. I firmly believe that the care of aging women will soon require the creation of new facilities and development of new equipment and of new approaches much like the care of other special groups has required.
