Continuing medical education (CME) serves to maintain or increase the knowledge, interpretive proficiencies, and technical skills that a physician uses in his/her practice of medicine. Resulting improvement is frequently difficult to measure, particularly in aerospace medicine, but CME is required for relicensure and/or for medical society membership in 70% of states. The Civil Aeromedical Institute first received American Medical Association approval for Category I CME credit for attendance at FAA seminars in January 1973. We began preparing annual performance reports for each aviation medical examiner (AME) in 1979 to attempt to isolate the causes of, and to reduce, computer rejection of about one-fourth of all medical certification input because of omissions or procedural errors. A special analysis of 1983 AME performance data found that errors were significantly reduced with recent and frequent seminar attendance, larger volume of exams, and pilot and military flight surgeon experience.
继续医学教育（CME）旨在维持或增加医生在其医疗实践中所使用的知识、解释能力和技术技能。由此带来的改善往往难以衡量，尤其是在航空航天医学领域，但在70%的州，继续医学教育是重新获得行医执照和/或成为医学协会会员所必需的。1973年1月，民用航空医学研究所首次获得美国医学协会批准，可因参加联邦航空管理局（FAA）研讨会而获得I类继续医学教育学分。我们于1979年开始为每位航空医学检查员（AME）编制年度绩效报告，试图找出约四分之一的医疗认证输入因遗漏或程序错误而被计算机拒绝的原因，并减少此类情况的发生。对1983年航空医学检查员绩效数据的一项专项分析发现，近期频繁参加研讨会、检查量增加以及飞行员和军事飞行外科医生的经验，都能显著减少错误。
