[Iatrogenic diseases and scientific and technical progress].
Evolution of the term "iatrogenesis" and a widening range of the diseases varying in origin and clinical appearance covered with this term are considered. It is emphasized that such interpretation misrepresents the primary meaning aimed at orientation of the physicians to evaluation of the patient and doctor personality in view of its role in the genesis of psychic and somatic disturbances which tends to loom large with further scientific and technological progress. Iatrogenesis is supposed to be relevant to pathomorphosis of the borderline psychic conditions, prenosologic diagnosis and screening of population, drug addiction and alcoholism management. There is a tendency to further introduction of technical aspects into medical education.
