title: [Medical audit of the clinical history of the infantile population treated at a primary care facility].
abstract: Authors present qualitative and quantitative results of a health quality assurance study of pediatric population in primary care. Ten criteria were accepted by consensus and level of 90% of fulfilling was taken as optimal standard. None of the criteria reached that level. The best fulfilled ones were those referring to pregnancy (89%), vaccination (87.7%), lactancy (87%), weight at birth (86.7%), parturition (84%) and newborn period (82%). Among qualitative results most remarkable were vaccination coverage (95.7%), length of breast-feeding (1-3 months, 60.6%) and untimely introduction of cereals with gluten (35.4%) and full-fat cow milk (50.3%). Authors consider that this kind of study is useful in primary care centers. It is necessary to include health care quality assurance activities among basic goals of these centers.
