Abstract

At the same time, the
fact is obvious that if these capabilities are not peculiar to everyone but
only to some doctors, it becomes an indicator not for mass professional
thinking but personal qualities of a definite person. Broad medical activity,
which includes a significant amount of both patients and medical personnel,
frequency of main diseases (socially significant in many respects) and
requirements on rendering high quality medical care demand mass training of
clinical thinking. First of all, it is demanded by the training of the
diagnosis recognition process. How is the training performed now? Nowadays, the
nosological principle of training dominates. A student studies one or another
disease using textbooks and lectures. Thus, the student learns symptoms of the
given disease in general, without relation to one or another concrete patient.
Later at a lecture, a teacher presents a patient with the disease under study
to the group of students, explains specific symptoms using patient’s example
and checks how students acquired the particular nosological form. Thereby
conclusions are made about a young doctor’s ability to recognize diseases and
to treat patients who have the given disease. Both teachers and students are
sure that a fund of knowledge about many diseases is formed in this way and the
doctor will be able to do his job professionally by accumulation of this
knowledge.
