BACKGROUND
In the domain of healthcare delivery, self medication (SM) is a widely prevalent form of health seeking behavior.
OBJECTIVES
The current study has been planned with the objectives to estimate the prevalence of SM practices among medical students, and to assess the knowledge pertaining to SM among the study population.
METHODS
A cross sectional descriptive study will be conducted among a representative population of medical students in a rural medical college for a period of two months among 205 students. The data collection tool will be a pilot tested semi-structured questionnaire and will be used after obtaining written informed consent. The statistical analysis will be done using SPSS version 16.
RESULTS
Results will be presented using descriptive (frequency, percentages, mean, and standard deviation) and inferential (chi-square test) statistics.
CONCLUSION
Considering the rising and alarming trends of antimicrobial resistance, it is our duty that we estimate the prevalence of SM among medical students and accordingly create awareness about not encouraging indiscriminate use of over the counter drugs.
背景
在医疗服务领域，自我药疗（SM）是一种广泛存在的求医行为形式。
目的
本研究旨在估计医学生中自我药疗行为的发生率，并评估研究人群中与自我药疗相关的知识。
方法
将在一所农村医学院的医学生代表性人群中进行为期两个月的横断面描述性研究，共纳入205名学生。数据收集工具将是经过预试验的半结构化问卷，在获得书面知情同意后使用。将使用SPSS 16版进行统计分析。
结果
将使用描述性统计（频率、百分比、均值和标准差）和推断性统计（卡方检验）呈现结果。
结论
鉴于抗菌药物耐药性不断上升且令人担忧的趋势，我们有责任估计医学生中自我药疗的发生率，并相应地提高对不鼓励无差别使用非处方药的认识。
