摘要:

Combined sessions are an important part of teaching surgery in the first years though they are very demanding of staff. During the Junior/Introductory Course the student should be given plenty of time to acquire understanding of and facility with a whole new vocabulary and to feel at ease talking to the sick. At this stage there should be no formal separate surgery course. Students are introduced to the reality of the clinical encounter and are given a rough outline of the areas in standard texts that they should have read. They are also taught about aspects of theatre drill. During the next years students are encouraged to think about simple clinical problems in an algorithmic way, and simulators are used to teach them how to use the simple surgical tools of the trade. In the last year an 'open round' is run to identify problems and students are provided with self-test material. The residency period should be used to enable student locums and preregistration house officers to achieve a measure of organizational experience, a sense of command, and to extend their communication skills by presenting patients at formal meetings. How students acquire clinical method remains to be established.

摘要:

This article outlines a simple model of the way students learn from lectures and describes nine basic skills of lecturing. It goes on to explore three lecture methods—the classical method, the problem-centred method and the sequential method—from the point of view of their usefulness, requirements and pitfalls. Finally, it proposes five basic steps in the preparation of a lecture.

摘要:

This month sees the centenary of the death of Joseph Towne, wax modeller of world renown. Born in the small English village of Royston, Hertfordshire, his skills were recognized when he came to London at the age of 17 with his first important work, a miniature skeleton in wax (Figure 1). Towne made the acquaintance of the eminent surgeon, Sir Astley Cooper, who gave him a written testimonial verifying the accuracy of the model and a letter of introduction to a colleague of his at Guy's Hospital (World Medicine1965). Thus started Towne's association with Guy's, which lasted for 53 years. During that time he fashioned some 50 anatomical models and about 650 dermatological ones, all outstanding for their realism, exquisite detail and brilliant colours (Figures 2, 3 and 4). The anatomical models owe much to John Hilton, an eminent surgeon at Guy's, whose bookRest and Painis still widely read, while Towne's skin collection owes much to Thomas Addison, physician to Guy's.

摘要:

This review considers the design and organization of rotations providing training in internal medicine at two levels—general training and higher professional training. The principle of rotation discussed here has also been successfully applied in other disciplines, such as surgery.

摘要:

This article describes an experiment to provide decentralized medical education in Washington, Alaska, Montana and Idaho—four states sharing common problems of health care provision and education of health professionals, including physicians. Evaluation of eight years' experience with the programme shows that the goals are being met. The basic concept of the WAMI programme is applicable to other health disciplines and/or regions with similar geographic, financial, educational and health care challenges.

摘要:

The subject of medical records is not popular with clinicians these days. Having to see patients in the clinic without their notes is too common an experience, and one which raises the blood pressure of both doctor and patient. Paradoxically though, it does force us reluctantly to concede that these maligned documents do have a purpose. It might even persuade us that it is illogical to attach so much importance to them when they are missing, and to treat them with such indifference when they are not.

摘要:

I have been licensed as a physician in Sweden for more than 50 years, working for most of this time at the Royal University of Lund, the Royal University of Gothenburg and the Royal University of Uppsala. My experience has been mostly as Professor of Medicine, but I have also had considerable experience in Anatomy, the most important preclinical subject. My researches have resulted in more than 300 articles and books.

摘要:

Provision of patient education is often poor because the resources are not available. At the University of Alberta Health Sciences Centre a patient education resource file has been established to help to meet this need.
