Comprehensive medical education in cancer prevention must advance knowledge and skills, notably in the psychosocial sciences, which have direct application in clinical practice. This course for physicians-in-training is based on the precept that alterable factors in cancer causation are consequences of physician and/or patient behaviors; the educational goal is therefore to effect behavior change in both groups. Sessions address critical concepts in cancer causation in relation to multifactorial and multistep etiologies, rates and risks, induction periods, and basic principles of biological and behavioral cancer prevention. In sections on smoking, diet, drugs, occupation, radiation, and genetics, concepts of the mechanisms that control disease are described, techniques for operationalizing these concepts are identified, and clinical skills needed for application are taught interactively. Concluding presentations promote integration of preventive skills, strategies and services into an acute care practice. The potential impact of this educational program is discussed.
癌症预防方面的综合医学教育必须增进知识和技能,尤其是在社会心理科学领域,这些知识和技能可直接应用于临床实践。本培训医师课程基于这样一个理念:癌症病因中可改变的因素是医生和/或患者行为的结果;因此,教育目标是促使这两个群体的行为发生改变。课程内容涉及与多因素和多步骤病因、发病率和风险、诱导期以及生物和行为癌症预防基本原则相关的癌症病因关键概念。在关于吸烟、饮食、药物、职业、辐射和遗传学的章节中,描述了控制疾病的机制概念,确定了将这些概念付诸实践的技术,并通过互动式教学传授应用所需的临床技能。最后的演讲促进将预防技能、策略和服务整合到急性护理实践中。讨论了该教育计划的潜在影响。
