| Popis: | In a mission hospital located in a tribal area in India we found that surgical patients were not coming to the hospital due to a variety of reasons. Table 1 summarizes the main problems and how they were overcome. The effectiveness of our efforts was reflected in the increase in the number of operations after these measures were carried out (1022 before and 1865 after). |
