title: Feedback research in postgraduates on efficacy of education in school of medicine.
abstract: At the Medical School, Tirgu-Mures/Romania, in the Alumni Office of the Department of Social Medicine, two feed-back researches were performed in 1962 and 1973 on 100 graduates working in basic medical care, in order to evaluate the efficacy of practical medical training. Between 1962 and 1973 efforts have been made to bring the medical teaching nearer to the ambulatory practical training. The compulsory externship (4 to 6 years), the young students' work as nurses at the patients' beds (1 to 2 years), their distribution in rural factory surgeries (5 to 6 years), the night duties at medical emergency services (6 years), as well as their training in prophylactic medico-hygiene activities brought a lot of improvements to the practical training of the students, future general practitioners. However, there are problems in this field of hygiene and epidemiology, as well as in emergency assistance. The improvement of practical education goes on. The next feed-back research is planned for 1976.
