The diagnostic profile of a South Australian rural practice.
The use of a problem and episode oriented computerised medical record in general practice for self-audit, some methodological constraints and the profile produced are discussed in this article. The profile was produced specifically for comparison with the results of the 1987 Australian Morbidity Study and with other Australian studies in the diagnostic content of general practice.
