Abstract
This article presents the epistemological foundations of regional medicometry and its five criteria: ethical, economic, social, spatial, and temporal. By its global approach medicometry studies the direct and indirect effects of medical infrastructures and employment on society and its quality of life. Two case studies, one dealing with an urban hospital in Geneva, Switzerland, the other with peripheral hospitals, give a step-by-step example of the multiplier effect approach. Detailed measures of economic and social impacts of hospitals are given to show that medical planning needs a careful and long-term analysis. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.
区域计量学:瑞士的认识论基础和案例研究
本文介绍了区域计量学的认识论基础及其五个标准:伦理、经济、社会、空间和时间。通过其全球方法,医学计量学研究医疗基础设施和就业对社会及其生活质量的直接和间接影响。两个案例研究,一个涉及瑞士日内瓦的一家城市医院,另一个涉及周边医院,给出了乘数效应方法的逐步例子。医院的经济和社会影响的详细措施表明,医疗规划需要仔细和长期的分析。©1998 John Wiley &儿子,Inc。
