Abstract
A statistical analysis of generalized data of the pathoanatomical service on quality of clinical diagnosis in curative prophylactic institutions in 54 administrative territories of the RSFSR was carried out. The structure (extensive indices) and frequency (intensive indices) of erroneous clinical diagnoses referring to the most important classes of diseases were identified. As to the structure of indices and frequency of clinic anatomic disparities the first place was occupied by oncological diseases (20.1±0.11 and 14.2±0.22%), the second, by infectious diseases (16.5±0.1 and 13.0±0.34%), the third, by diseases of the digestive system (14.6±0.09 and 13.0 ± 0.33%), the fourth, by diseases of the urogenital system (14.0±0.09 and 12.2±0.49%), the fifth, by disease of the respiratory system (12.7±0.09 and 10.6±0.24%), the sixth, by diseases of the cardiovascular system (11.1±0.08 and 8.0±0.14%). The recommendation is put forward to carry on annually a complex statistical analysis of extensive and intensive indices of erroneous clinical diagnoses demonstrating the quality of clinical diagnosis in therapeutic institutions of a given administrative territory.
