An Attempt to Motivate Internal Medicine Housestaff to Obtain Consent for Autopsies.
Sidorov, Jaan
Academic Medicine, v65 n10 p647-49 Oct 1990
A study found that a 50-minute lecture on the value of autopsy had little effect on housestaff patterns of requesting autopsies. Housestaff (n=27) attending the lecture did not request more autopsies or obtain more permissions than did the control group (n=26). Results suggest more sophisticated techniques than lectures should be used. (Author/MSE)
