Illness Behavior and Transitional States: A Study of Outpatient Rates and Symptom Presentation in Relation to Troop Deployment during Peacetime. Types and Rates of Outpatient Sick Call Visits of Active Duty Soldiers and Their Family Members, June 1980 - May 1981
Abstract
The outpatient sickcall visits during June 1980-May 1981 for soldiers and their family members in 22 companies were collected and linked to the sponsor's personnel data as part of the 'Health Consequences of Deployment' study of short-term stress. Data tabulations give the numbers and rates of visits by major category, and most frequent individual reaon for visit. The disposition of the visits with limitations of duty (profiles and quarters) are also presented. Changes in the rates and types of visit are presented graphically. The demographic characteristics and attributes of the soldier population-at-risk are presented as are the characteristics and attributes of the active duty health care utilizer. (Author)
