[Health survey in the elderly using home interviews: study of various indicators].
Questions asked on the occasion of health survey at home usually refer to frequency of medical consultations and prescribed drugs, but often also to reported somatic symptoms and self-evaluated general health status. Interview data collected in a population of aged widows and widowers revealed a high degree of concordance between these various health indicators, justifying in particular the value assigned to the subjective appreciation of the level of general health.
