Abstract
The International Hospital Federation has been especially interested in promoting collaborative studies for the improvement of worldwide understanding and cooperation concerning hospital care, its legislation, procedures, and ethics. Many of these studies have been included in papers and discussed at meetings, thus creating the conditions in which physicians, nurses, hospital authorities, lawyers, and clergymen to meet and exchange points of view, present their problems, propose specific resolutions, and occasionally arrive at tentative solutions.
