ABSTRACT

We conducted a survey to measure the change of awareness about Kampo medicine following through four lectures of educational interventions delivered to the third-year students in a national registered dietitian training program. Awareness with regard to Kampo medicine was surveyed before and immediately after the interventions. We also collected the same questionnaire again five months after the interventions. The students' scores changed significantly between before and immediately after the interventions in the favorable direction regarding their interest in Kampo medicine, the necessity of including Kampo medicine in future educational programs, and the potential usefulness of Kampo medicine at their future workplaces, and the changes were maintained for five months.<BR>About 70% of students answered that they became more familiar with Kampo medicine as a result of the classes, but their knowledge of Kampo medicine was poor before the lectures and even immediately after the interventions. These results suggest that education about Kampo medicine for students in a national registered dietitian training program is important, because it could be a positive incentive for them to learn about Kampo medicines and herbs and to accept the use of Kampo medicine at their future workplaces.
