抄録

The holistic medical care based upon the principles of psychosomatic medicine is a fundamental basis for clinical medicine, the practice of which all physicians should bear in mind. It is therefore of profound importance to have medical students realize the significance and necessity of psychosomatic medicine in various stages of the whole medical education process. In order to convince young students of psychosomatic medicine, we must present solid scientific data rather than abstract theories. It is most persuasive to show actual examples of incorporating up-to-day research findings produced by ourselves into the clinical practice of psychosomatic medicine. I must point out several problems in the conventional way of medical education. For example, practically no guidelines and lectures on thanatology or death education are included in the curriculum of medical education, despite the fact that we educate students to become doctors who must frequently face human death. The teaching of terminal care, which is just the practice of the holistic medical care itself, is still far from satisfactory. I have made it a rule to discuss in my own office these problems frankly and thoroughly with a small group of medical students who are on the assignment to our department during the undergraduate clinical training period. By pursuing discussions. I have been making an effort to develop students to be doctors with warm humanity who can perceive the inside of patients' feelings. My ideal doctor should possess l) the considerate and humble mind, 2) the ability to perceive what is unseen and 3) the sentiment to feel compassion. When these doctors practice psychosomatic medicine for the sake of patients' benefit, much more desirable way of medical care will come into being. Therefore, medical education plays a very important role.
