This is a synthesis of the responses of Drs. Paul and Schulman and Ms. Blatterbauer, as well as my own. We are in agreement with Dr. Sissman that physicians should be able to deal with the psychosocial aspects of illness, and we know of many who do so. However, we are also aware that this becomes difficult in a large specialty clinic where time is short and many patients must be seen. This experimental study was done because the cardiologists believed that even under the best of circumstances, a small percentage of parents have the opportunity to assimilate the medical information and to think about its implications.
