The opinions of 600 randomly selected doctors on what should be taught to undergraduates in clinical years were analysed. The respondents gave a high priority to general medicine, paediatrics, general surgery, casualty, and gynaecology, but a low priority to forensic medicine, plastic surgery, radiotherapy, anaesthetics, radiology, and rehabilitation medicine. Doctors thought that these should be taught to postgraduates. The two major groupings of doctors--general practitioners and consultants--gave essentially the same priorities. Undergraduate curricula cannot include all major specialities, so the results of this analysis may provide a useful basis for selecting the most suitable subjects. Criteria for including other specialties might be the ability and enthusiasm of the teachers and well-thought-out and academically sound teaching programmes.
分析了600名随机挑选的医生对于临床阶段本科教学内容的看法。受访者高度重视普通医学、儿科学、普通外科、急症科和妇科，但对法医学、整形外科、放射治疗、麻醉学、放射学和康复医学的重视程度较低。医生们认为这些应该教给研究生。医生的两大主要群体——全科医生和专科顾问医生——给出了基本相同的优先级。本科课程不可能涵盖所有主要专业，因此这项分析结果可能为选择最合适的科目提供有用的依据。纳入其他专业的标准可能是教师的能力和热情以及精心设计且学术合理的教学计划。
