Longitudinal Integrated Clerkships (LICs) are beginning to replace traditional short undergraduate rotations in general practice. LIC's differ from traditional rotations in that they are longer, they involve sustained relationships between students, patients and health professionals; and they integrate various strands of medical education. From early development in the US and Australia, LICs are now a fast-growing phenomenon across the world. We present three papers that seek to explain what LICs are, the evidence for their effectiveness and the practicalities of establishing or delivering a longitudinal integrated clerkship.
纵向整合实习（LICs）正开始取代传统的本科阶段短期全科医学实习。LICs与传统实习的不同之处在于，它们持续时间更长，涉及学生、患者和卫生专业人员之间的长期关系；并且整合了医学教育的各个方面。从在美国和澳大利亚的早期发展开始，LICs如今在全球范围内迅速发展。我们发表了三篇论文，旨在解释LICs是什么、其有效性的证据以及建立或开展纵向整合实习的实际情况。
