A cross-study has been carried out of the demand for specialised medical attention, by disease process, in Heart and Lung outpatient consultations. Cardiac morbidity diagnosed in consultations carried out in the province of Valencia has been analysed. The results from the various institutions (C.I.E. Novena Revisión) fall into different age groups. They are also differentiated by first and second visits. Chronic cardiocirculatory diseases are the most frequently attended on an outpatient basis by the Heart specialist. "Other forms of chronic ischemia of the heart" is the nosological classification which is diagnosed the most in the week the sample was taken. The disorders being studied appear most during the second stage of life.
