The teaching of medical informatics is of importance for students in medicine and health care, realizing that they will be the health professionals of the future. Training in medical informatics is also of value for practicing clinicians who are overwhelmed by the avalanche of systems that are available on the market. Some examples of operational systems are presented here to indicate that health care has changed dramatically over the last decades. This paper intends to contribute to the drafting of IMIA guidelines for teaching medical informatics by (1) reporting on the experience at the Faculty of Medicine and Health Sciences of the Erasmus University Rotterdam as part of the curriculum, (2) reporting on the implementation of guidelines for teaching medical informatics in The Netherlands since these guidelines were drafted in 1986, and (3) by introducing the teaching material contained in the new Handbook of Medical Informatics and on its Web site.
医学信息学教学对医学和医疗保健专业的学生而言至关重要,因为他们将成为未来的健康专业人员。对于那些被市场上大量可用系统搞得应接不暇的执业临床医生来说,医学信息学培训也很有价值。本文列举了一些操作系统的例子,以表明在过去几十年中医疗保健发生了巨大变化。本文旨在通过以下方式为医学信息学教学的IMIA指南起草做出贡献:(1)报告鹿特丹伊拉斯姆斯大学医学与健康科学学院作为课程一部分的经验;(2)报告自1986年荷兰起草医学信息学教学指南以来这些指南的实施情况;(3)介绍新的《医学信息学手册》及其网站上包含的教学材料。
