Historically, physicians have received little formal education related to alcohol or other drug abuse and dependence. A survey of all pediatric programs in the United States was conducted to assess the current status of alcohol/drug education in pediatrics. At the medical student and residency training levels, only 44% and 40% of programs, respectively, required any formal instruction, and only 27% and 34%, respectively, offered an elective for medical students or residents. Although most respondents endorsed the inclusion of both required and elective alcohol and drug education in the curriculum, few programs that did not include it already had a future plan for it. Major impediments identified were curriculum time constraints (86% medical student level, 68% resident level) and the lack of a qualified instructor (55% medical student level, 50% resident level). The survey results suggest a strong need for development of faculty and structured alcohol and drug abuse educational plans specific to pediatrics.
从历史上看，医生接受的与酒精或其他药物滥用及依赖相关的正规教育很少。对美国所有儿科项目进行了一项调查，以评估儿科酒精/药物教育的现状。在医学生和住院医师培训层面，分别只有44%和40%的项目要求进行任何正规教学，分别只有27%和34%的项目为医学生或住院医师提供选修课。尽管大多数受访者支持在课程中纳入必修和选修的酒精及药物教育，但很少有未纳入该内容的项目制定了未来计划。确定的主要障碍是课程时间限制（医学生层面为86%，住院医师层面为68%）以及缺乏合格的教师（医学生层面为55%，住院医师层面为50%）。调查结果表明，迫切需要培养师资，并制定针对儿科的结构化酒精和药物滥用教育计划。
