Evaluation of Chest Disease Consultations
Consultation means refering a case to the related specialist in order to have his/her opinion and manage the treatment of the patient accordingly (1,2). Pulmonary consultations are requested commonly from nearly every inpatient clinic. Cases are generally consulted following the determination of a clinical or radiological pathology at pulmonary system in order to have the patients assessed by the pulmonologist’s point of view regarding diagnosis, treatment or at the preoperative state. This study retrospectively evaluates the records of the consultations asked from Clinics of Chest Disease.
