In the article patient education is recognized as a process of changing knowledge, attitudes and skills and influencing behaviour to improve health. In 2001 a questionnaire survey was carried out among 415 physicians to assess range of patient education, physicians' attitudes, social influences supporting and hindering this activity and barriers for performance. It was concluded that patient education was quite wide range activity among young physicians and attitudes were more or less positive. Despite of that social influences were not strongly supportive for patient education and there was a lot of barriers, especially lack of time, too many patients and administrative tasks.
在这篇文章中，患者教育被视为一个改变知识、态度和技能，并影响行为以改善健康的过程。2001年，对415名医生进行了问卷调查，以评估患者教育的范围、医生的态度、支持和阻碍这项活动的社会影响以及实施过程中的障碍。得出的结论是，患者教育在年轻医生中是一项相当广泛的活动，而且态度或多或少是积极的。尽管如此，社会影响对患者教育的支持并不强烈，并且存在很多障碍，尤其是时间不足、患者过多和行政任务繁重。
