继续教育项目在耳聋基因诊断推广应用中的效果评估

Application and effect evaluation of continuing medical education in the promotion of deafness genetic testing

近几年来,随着耳聋分子病因学研究及分子生物学技术的快速发展,耳聋基因诊断及产前诊断成为学科发展的热点领域。如何将业已成熟的基因诊断及产前诊断新理论和新技术在临床实践中普及推广,是亟待解决的问题。为此,我们通过举办7届耳聋基因诊断学习班(国家级继续医学教育项目)及5届耳聋基因诊断高端研讨会(北京市继续医学教育项目),对来自国内100余家相关单位的耳鼻咽喉头颈外科医生,临检技术人员,计划生育及妇幼保健等相关人员开展了理论教学及实验培训,培养了一大批耳聋基因诊断人才,收到了良好的推广普及效果。

With the rapid development of research in molecular pathogenic mechanism for deafness and molecular bio-logical techniques, clinical genetic testing and prenatal diagnosis have become hotspots in otology. There is an urgent need to promote the application of relevant knowledge and techniques in the clinic nationwide. We have, therefore, conducted seven national-level continuing medical education （CME） projects and five provincial-level CME projects in the past seven years on an annual basis. Hundreds of ENT doctors, technicians and officials from more than 100 hospitals, family planning agencies, maternity and child care institutions have attended the courses and laboratory training sessions in these projects, which has played great roles in promoting genetic testing for deafness in China.
