Prevalence of Screening for Alcohol Use by Physicians During Routine Physical Examinations.
Year: 1994
Type: article
Study design: Observational Study
Abstract: In the survey presented here, primary care physicians were asked whether physicians inquired about their alcohol consumption during routine office visits. Results show that both demographics and the patient's health status affect how often the physician asked about alcohol use. In addition, the majority of survey respondents, who were seen for a checkup within the last 2 years, were not asked about their alcohol consumption.
