The incorporation of integrative medicine as a holistic approach increased in medical education. However, complementary and alternative medicine (CAM) formal teaching in psychiatry residency programs is limited.
To assess the incorporation of CAM education in different Chilean psychiatry programs and to determine the knowledge and attitudes toward this issue.
An online survey was sent to 80 academic staff from five psychiatry programs. Forty-nine participants answered the survey (61%). Some of the questionnaire topics were the inclusion of CAM content in the program, types of CAM included, and motivation and strategies for the CAM content incorporation in their training curriculum.
Most respondents answered that there is no formal CAM content in their program's curriculum. The main topics to incorporate CAM in a psychiatry residency are sleep hygiene, stress management, and motivational interviewing. The lack of knowledge, time constraints, and the limited resources are major barriers to include CAM in their curriculums.
Our results suggest that many academic staff of Chilean psychiatry training programs are aware of the importance of having CAM content in their curriculum. However, some barriers hinder their incorporation and implementation.
作为一种整体方法的整合医学在医学教育中的应用有所增加。然而，精神病学住院医师培训项目中补充与替代医学（CAM）的正规教学有限。
评估智利不同精神病学项目中CAM教育的纳入情况，并确定对该问题的知识和态度。
向来自五个精神病学项目的80名学术人员发送了在线调查问卷。49名参与者回答了调查（61%）。问卷的一些主题包括项目中CAM内容的纳入情况、所包含的CAM类型，以及将CAM内容纳入其培训课程的动机和策略。
大多数受访者回答称其项目课程中没有正规的CAM内容。在精神病学住院医师培训中纳入CAM的主要主题是睡眠卫生、压力管理和动机访谈。知识匮乏、时间限制和资源有限是将CAM纳入其课程的主要障碍。
我们的结果表明，智利精神病学培训项目的许多学术人员意识到在其课程中纳入CAM内容的重要性。然而，一些障碍阻碍了其纳入和实施。
