A core priority of all medical specialties includes information for members regarding inherent priorities and principles. The authors sought to investigate the priority and contribution of various medical specialties to the fields of bioterrorism, terrorism, disaster preparedness, and emergency preparedness.
A mixed study design (quantitative and qualitative) was used to identify pertinent characteristics of various medical specialties. A scored survey analysis of resources available from the representative organizations and/or societies of the primary medical specialties and select subspecialties was examined and scored based on availability, ease of accessibility, updated status, and content. A MEDLINE search completed through PubMed using the medical subject headings bioterrorism, terrorism, disaster preparedness, and emergency preparedness coupled with specific medical specialties was conducted to assess the involvement and contribution of each to the medical literature.
The primary study outcome was to evaluate the priority of and existing resources available to members for bioterrorism/terrorism and disaster/emergency preparedness among various medical specialties as reflected by their representative organizations and scientific publication.
The search of individual medical specialties and of the medical literature (2000-2010) revealed that these topics (via keywords bioterrorism, terrorism, disaster preparedness, and emergency preparedness) are indeed a priority topic for the majority of medical specialties. A number of specialties with expectant priority in these topics were confirmed. All seven primary care specialties demonstrated a core priority of these topics and offered resources. The MEDLINE (PubMed) search yielded 7,228 articles published from 2000 to 2010.
Bioterrorism/terrorism and disaster/ emergency preparedness are priority topics of most medical specialties. This core priority is demonstrated by both the medical specialty resources in addition to the contribution of scientific articles from these medical specialties. This reflects the diverse medical care that is necessary for terrorist threats and the collaborative efforts that will help to make the medical response to these threats more cohesive.
所有医学专业的一个核心优先事项包括为成员提供有关内在优先事项和原则的信息。作者试图调查各种医学专业对生物恐怖主义、恐怖主义、灾难准备和应急准备领域的优先性和贡献。
采用混合研究设计（定量和定性）来确定各种医学专业的相关特征。对主要医学专业和选定亚专业的代表性组织和/或协会提供的资源进行评分调查分析，并根据可得性、易获取性、更新状态和内容进行评分。通过PubMed使用医学主题词生物恐怖主义、恐怖主义、灾难准备和应急准备以及特定医学专业进行MEDLINE搜索，以评估各专业在医学文献中的参与情况和贡献。
主要研究结果是评估各医学专业成员在生物恐怖主义/恐怖主义以及灾难/应急准备方面的优先性和现有资源，这体现在其代表性组织和科学出版物中。
对各个医学专业和医学文献（2000 - 2010年）的搜索表明，这些主题（通过关键词生物恐怖主义、恐怖主义、灾难准备和应急准备）确实是大多数医学专业的优先主题。确认了一些在这些主题方面预期具有优先性的专业。所有七个初级保健专业都表明这些主题是核心优先事项并提供了资源。MEDLINE（PubMed）搜索产生了2000年至2010年发表的7228篇文章。
生物恐怖主义/恐怖主义以及灾难/应急准备是大多数医学专业的优先主题。除了这些医学专业的科学文章贡献外，医学专业资源也证明了这一核心优先事项。这反映了应对恐怖主义威胁所需的多样化医疗护理以及有助于使对这些威胁的医疗应对更具凝聚力的协作努力。
