Cumulative patient profiles CMAJ 1997;156:1121 Dr. Richard Tytus and I read with great interest the article "Physicians who keep lax records put careers in danger, college course warns" (CMAJ 1996;155:1469-72 [in brief / en bref]), by Dee Kramer. Because we are involved with the Practice Management Committee of the Hamilton Academy of Medicine, we responded to members' requests by developing a series of patient-record-management sheets, the cornerstone of which is the cumulative patient profile. As is evident from the cumulative patient profile form presented with Kramer's article, the most recent update of this form was by the University of Toronto in 1977. We designed our sheets to reflect current concerns and provide versatility for individual physicians. Physicians who would like to receive a sample copy can contact me.
