[Hospitalization of foreign residents living abroad at the Assistance Publique--hospitals of Paris (1981-1988)].
In 1988, 10,386 foreign patients living abroad were hospitalized in the public Hospitals of "Assistance Publique" in Paris. Specific statistical methods starting from an anonymous file of patients, made it possible to study these hospital stays in terms of patients for each year between 1981 and 1988. Several factors are described: the various origins of the hospitalized patients; the overall decrease in the number of hospitalized patients during the period taken into account, with a detailed analysis for certain nationalities; the comparatively higher rate of tumors and cardiovascular diseases; the distribution of patients by diseases and by geographical origin. These data are in keeping with those of a recent survey on morbidity carried out by the Department of Health.
