At the Symposium entitled "Health, Culture, and Quality of Life" held in Hanoi in 1993, the authors of this report met the physicians in charge of the Traditional Medicine Institute of Hanoi which works with the World Health Organization for traditional medicine. After an historical overview of the foundation of this center providing research, care, and training under the auspices of the Hanoi School of Medicine, Professor Hoang Bao Chau described a practice based on revision of ancestral traditions in accordance with scientific methods, the resulting synthesis being up-to-date yet in keeping with heritage. This novel and pragmatic approach, which takes into account the complexity of man, offers an opportunity to reflect on the current status of medical practices in the world and on their adaptation to each population at a time when the experience of the Other seems almost impossible to communicate.
在1993年于河内举行的题为“健康、文化与生活质量”的研讨会上,本报告的作者会见了河内传统医学研究所的负责人,该研究所与世界卫生组织合作开展传统医学研究。在对这个在河内医学院支持下提供研究、护理和培训的中心的成立进行历史回顾之后,黄宝洲教授描述了一种基于按照科学方法修订祖传传统的实践,由此产生的综合方法既与时俱进又与传统一脉相承。这种新颖且务实的方法考虑到了人类的复杂性,在不同文化间的经验似乎几乎无法交流的当下,为反思世界医疗实践的现状以及它们如何适应不同人群提供了契机。
