In many low-income countries where there are few or no neurologists, patients with neurologic diseases are cared for by primary care physicians who receive no formal training in neurology. Here, we report our experience creating a neurology rotation for internal medicine residents in rural Haiti through a collaboration between a public academic medical center in Haiti and a visiting neurologist. We describe the structure of the rotation and the factors that led to its development.
在许多低收入国家,神经科医生很少或根本没有,患有神经系统疾病的患者由未接受过正规神经学培训的初级保健医生照料。在此,我们报告我们通过海地的一家公立学术医疗中心与一位来访神经科医生的合作,为海地农村地区的内科住院医师创建神经科轮转培训的经验。我们描述了轮转培训的结构以及促成其开展的因素。
