[Objective and subjective health status of selected population groups in the former district of Halle].
In recent years the scientific work of the Institute of Social Medicine of the University Martin Luther Halle-Wittenberg, concentrated on investigating the complete registration of the state of health of selected groups of the population in interaction with the corresponding living conditions. The main indicators consisted of the opinion of the physician (physician's appraisal of health) and of the people/patient (self-appraisal of health). These reflect two main aspects of the state of health. During the study period 1986-1989 a total of 3,794 probationers (working population of selected firms, apprentices, students) were examined. Additionally, in connection with other targets (study of hypertension, study of the family doctor, study of the pulmonary function), further groups of the population were consulted to evaluate its state of health confirming the trends of the main examination. The results show specific characteristics of groups and also regionally and possible environmentally influenced differences of the state of health. They supply starting points for improving medical care and for on-target improvement advancement of health.
