title: [Psychiatric consultations in a general hospital].
abstract: A statistical analysis of psychiatric referrals for inpatients in a urban general hospital are presented: Data are compared to reports from the last twenty years. Significant differences for age, sex and diagnosis are noted. These are attributed to the specific vocation of the hospital as a chest and cardio center for eastern Quebec. The discussion deals with various aspects of the clinical material. References from out-patient clinics are not included.
