Adequacy of general practitioners' premises for minor surgery.

N Zoltie1, G Hoult.   

Abstract

OBJECTIVE: Assessment of facilities for minor surgery in general practitioners' premises.
DESIGN: Independent inspection of premises and equipment.
SETTING: Large urban district.
SUBJECTS: Premises of all general practitioners who applied to be reimbursed for minor surgery. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURE: Fullfilment of 14 pre-selected criteria.
RESULTS: 69 of 111 premises met all criteria and were approved; 23 failed on only one criterion. The commonest reasons for failure were inadequate record keeping and lack of resuscitation equipment. Twelve practices had out of date adrenaline.
CONCLUSIONS: Most premises are suitable for minor surgery, some with attention needed to record keeping. Practices must pay careful attention to the expiry date of adrenaline.
