The RECALMIN sample is broader and incorporates a greater proportion of hospitals with more than 500 beds, which explains why a number of the data from the previous survey are revised upwards, such as the average number of medical internists per IMU (14 [SD, 8] in RECALMIN compared with 10 in the 2008 survey). The same is true with the volume of activity (discharges and outpatient clinics).</p><p id="par0065" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">The study's most important finding is the marked variability in all indicators of IMU structure and processes, which could be due to the significant differences in efficiency and productivity, thereby indicating opportunities for improvement.

However, there are marked differences between the types of IMU; those located in hospitals with fewer than 500 beds are significantly more productive in this activity than those with more than 500 beds.

There are notable differences between IMUs of hospitals with more or fewer than 500 beds, with significantly shorter stays in the latter (9.3 days vs. 7.5 days).</p><p id="par0075" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">The data show a pronounced gap between the clinical management of patients in the IMU and the recommendations of the Ministry of Health, Social Services and Equality,<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0250"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">17</span></a> especially in terms of implementing the recommendations of the NICE guidelines for managing critical and acutely ill patients.<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRefs" href="#bib0270"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">21–23</span></a> The rounds were multidisciplinary in only 33% of the IMUs.<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRefs" href="#bib0285"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">24–26</span></a> Systematic follow-up and activation had only been implemented in 21% of the IMUs, and 60% of the units responded that they planned the discharge.<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRefs" href="#bib0300"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">27–31</span></a> The survey did not ask whether rounds were conducted on the weekends, with admission from Friday to Sunday a known risk factor for mortality.<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRefs" href="#bib0185"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">4,5</span></a> The implementation of follow-up and activation systems was greater the larger the hospital size where the IMU was located; nevertheless, only 33.3% of the IMUs in hospitals with more than 1000 beds had implemented these systems. In terms of other clinical management tools, such as multidisciplinary rounds and discharge planning, there were no significant differences between the hospitals. There are known organizational and management barriers in implementing appropriate systems for the care of patients admitted to Spanish NHS general hospitals for the acutely ill, which exceed the IMUs’ limits of responsibility. The commitment of medical internists to their patients should extend to removing these barriers.</p><p id="par0080" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">Regarding the implementation of systematic care programs for complex chronic patients, the IMUs that indicated having implemented them (41%) had a population coverage of 56%, which means that these programs cover less than 24% of the population. There is therefore a noticeable gap between the recommendations of the standards document for multiple-disease units <a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0325"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">32</span></a> and the strategy for approaching chronicity in the Spanish NHS.<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0220"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">11</span></a> A more positive outcome of the survey is that the majority (66%) of IMUs communicated with primary care through email and mobile telephone. In contrast, only 39% of the IMUs had internists that commuted to the health center, a figure that has remained stable since 2008. The development of a care model in the future immediate that adequately responds to the challenge of increasing numbers of complex chronic patients is an essential element for the viability of the Spanish NHS. Models such as that proposed in the Future Hospital document of the Royal College of Physicians<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0330"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">33</span></a> should inspire deeper changes in the structure, organization and management of the hospitals, the IMUs and the communication systems with primary care and social services.</p><p id="par0085" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">Regarding the 2008 survey,<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0225"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">12</span></a> there has been healthy progress in the implementation of structured hospital interconsultation programs (61% vs. 25%). The average number of hospital interconsultations in those IMUs that implemented this service was 809, with an average of 3.2 visits per patient, which represents a significant healthcare burden.</p><p id="par0090" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">The average rate of first consultations (9.4 per 1000 inhabitants and year) is probably high, as is the ratio between successive consultations and the first (3.6). These findings are possibly related to the limited development of systematic care programs for complex chronic patients. The relationship between successive consultations and the first is lower in IMUs of hospitals with fewer than 500 beds compared with those that have more than 500 beds.</p><p id="par0095" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">Research is closely linked to the hospital's complexity. Measured in terms of impact factor, IMUs located in hospitals with more than 1000 beds (type 4) have a factor of 115 compared with 12 for those located in hospitals with fewer than 250 beds (type 1). These differences could explain, at least partly, the findings in productivity indicators, such as the number of discharges per internist and year, with the internists of the most complex hospitals dedicating a greater portion of their time to research and, probably, teaching.</p><p id="par0100" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">This study is limited by the percentage of hospitals that responded to the survey.

The marked variability found in the indicators of structure, activity and management of these units probably reflect differences in efficiency and productivity and, therefore, offer significant room for improvement. Significant gaps were found in the clinical management of patients in IMUs and the good practices recommendations in the clinical management of critically and acutely ill patients and in terms of the systematic care of complex chronic patients. It is likely that there are structural, organizational and management barriers that hinder the improvement of care in these 2 relevant spheres of IM activity.
