To carry out an appropriate overview and inventory of the teaching of ethics within the European Union Schools of Medicine.
A questionnaire was sent by email to 45 randomly selected medical schools from each of 23 countries in the European Union in February 2006.
25 schools of medicine from 18 European countries were included (response rate = 56%). In 21 of 25 medical schools, there was at least one ethics module. In 11 of 25 medical schools, the teaching of ethics was transversal. Only one of the responding schools did not teach ethics. The mean time invested in ethics teaching was 44 h during the overall curriculum.
Ethics now has an established place within the medical curriculum throughout the European Union. However, there is a notable disparity in programme characteristics among schools of medicine.
对欧盟医学院校的伦理学教学进行适当的概述和梳理。
2006年2月,通过电子邮件向欧盟23个国家中随机选取的45所医学院校发送了调查问卷。
纳入了来自18个欧洲国家的25所医学院校(回复率 = 56%)。25所医学院校中有21所至少设有一个伦理学模块。25所医学院校中有11所的伦理学教学具有横向性。回复的学校中只有一所不教授伦理学。在整个课程中,投入伦理学教学的平均时间为44小时。
伦理学目前在整个欧盟的医学课程中已确立了一席之地。然而,医学院校之间在课程特点方面存在显著差异。
