RESUMO
Objetivo: Este estudio tuvo como objetivo principal validar el Voice Handicap Index (VHI) y su versión abreviada (VHI-10) adaptados al español rioplatense de Argentina, con objetivos específicos centrados en evaluar su fiabilidad y validez. Metodología: La adaptación cultural incluyó técnicas de traducción directa, síntesis y retrotraducción, evaluación de la equivalencia semántica y aplicación a un grupo piloto. Para la validación se evaluó la fiabilidad de ambos índices adaptados mediante la consistencia interna (coeficiente alfa de Cronbach) y la estabilidad test-retest (prueba de Bland-Altman, CCI y r de Spearman). Además, se examinó la validez de criterio y de constructo. 213 sujetos participaron en la validación del índice adaptado de 30 ítems (123 disfónicos; 90 de control); 113, en la del índice abreviado (63 disfónicos; 50 de control). Resultados: Se constituyó el Índice de Desventaja Vocal (IDV) como la versión adaptada del VHI al español rioplatense de Argentina. Ambos índices demostraron excelente consistencia interna (IDV-30 α = 0,96; IDV-10 α = 0,92) y estabilidad y concordancia (IDV-30 CCI = 0,95; IDV-10 CCI = 0,96). Se halló alta correlación entre los puntajes de ambos índices y la autoevaluación de la severidad de la disfonía de los participantes (r = 0,85). Ambos índices demostraron capacidad de diferenciar entre individuos con disfonía y sujetos sanos (p< 0,001). El análisis factorial reveló tres factores para el IDV-30 y un factor para el IDV-10. Conclusiones: El IDV-30 e IDV-10 presentan grados adecuados de fiabilidad y validez. Ambos pueden ser incluidos en protocolos de valoración de la función vocal por profesionales de Argentina.
Aim: This study aimed to validate the Voice Handicap Index (VHI) and its abbreviated version (VHI-10) adapted into Rioplatense Spanish from Argentina, with specific goals centered on assessing their reliability and validity. Methods: Cultural adaptation involved direct translation, synthesis and back-translation techniques, followed by an assessment of semantic equivalence and application to a pilot group. For the validation process, the reliability of both adapted indices was assessed through measures of internal consistency (Cronbach's alpha coefficient) and test-retest stability (Bland-Altman test, ICC and Spearman's correlation coefficient). Additionally, we conducted analyses to asses criterion and construct validity. 213 subjects participated in the validation of the adapted 30-items index, (123 with dysphonia; 90 from control group); 113, in the abbreviated version (63 with dysphonia; 50 from control group). Results: The "Índice de Desventaja Vocal" (IDV) was established as the adapted version of the VHI into Rioplatense Spanish from Argentina. Both indeces exhibited excellent internal consistency (IDV-30 α = 0,96; IDV-10 α = 0,92) and satisfactory stability and agreement (IDV-30 CCI = 0,95; IDV-10 CCI = 0,96). Regarding validity, a strong correlation was observed between the scores of both indeces and the participant's self-assessment of dysphonia degree (r = 0,85). Both indices effectively differentiated between individuals with dysphonia and healthy subjects (p< 0,001). Factor analysis revealed three factors for the IDV-30 and one factor for the IDV-10. Conclusion: The IDV-30 and IDV-10 demonstrate satisfactory levels of reliability and validity. Both indices can be incorporated into the assessment protocols for evaluating the vocal function by professionals in Argentina.
RESUMO
Resumo O objetivo deste artigo é mapear a produção científica global sobre representações sociais ou culturais e câncer de mama no campo da saúde coletiva e discutir como esse fenômeno se apresenta na literatura. Foi realizada uma revisão de escopo, tendo como norte a seguinte pergunta: "Como representações culturais ou sociais no contexto do câncer de mama são descritas na produção científica global no âmbito da saúde coletiva?". As buscas foram realizadas em cinco fontes de literatura científica, sendo incluídos 45 estudos. O tratamento analítico seguiu a técnica de análise de conteúdo na modalidade temática. O acervo analisado pode ser tematizado nas seguintes categorias: (1) Comprometimento na imagem corporal e nas interações; (2) Espiritualidade; (3) Perda do controle da vida; (4) Seguir com a vida e (5) Associação a questões étnico-raciais. Apesar dos avanços da biomedicina, observa-se que nas representações do câncer de mama ainda permanecem metáforas associadas ao câncer no século passado. Conclui-se que, dentre outros aspectos, a atenção a mulheres com câncer de mama não pode ser pautada apenas pelas abordagens biomédica e epidemiológica, uma vez que essa doença é atravessada por saberes que competem com essas abordagens.
Abstract This article aims to map the global scientific production on social or cultural representations and breast cancer in Public Health and discuss how it is presented in the literature. We conducted a scoping review guided by the question: "How are cultural or social representations in the context of breast cancer described in the global scientific Public Health production?". We searched for works in five scientific literature sources and included 45 studies. The analytical process followed the content analysis technique in the thematic modality. The analyzed collection can be thematized into the following categories: (1) Compromised body image and interactions, (2) Spirituality, (3) Loss of control over life, (4) Going on with life, and (5) Association with ethnic-racial issues. Despite advances in biomedicine, we observed that representations of breast cancer still have metaphors associated with cancer in the last century. We conclude that, among other aspects, care for women with breast cancer cannot be guided only by biomedical and epidemiological approaches since this disease is traversed by knowledge that competes with these approaches.
RESUMO
La diversidad cultural es el resultado de un proceso que se conforma en el marco de las relaciones sociales, económicas y culturales. Se hace imprescindible que los profesores universitarios estén preparados para atender la diversidad cultural de sus estudiantes, teniendo en cuenta las particularidades de su cultura nacional y la de otros grupos de diferentes procedencias que coexisten en un mismo escenario educativo. La diversidad cultural es un reto de la comunidad educativa y debe estar contemplada en la formación permanente de los profesores de las universidades médicas fundamentalmente por sus contextos, los ambientes socioeconómicos y los problemas de salud, sobre todo por las enfermedades crónicas no trasmisibles debido a su alta prevalencia y su repercusión en el individuo y su familia, en los que influyen los factores de riesgo y las determinantes sociales, condicionados por sus orígenes, creencias, vivencias y representaciones que matizan los contextos interculturales actuales a nivel mundial.
Cultural diversity is the result of a process that is formed within the framework of social, economic and cultural relations. It is essential that university professors are prepared to address the cultural diversity of their students, taking into account the particularities of their national culture and that of other groups of different origins that coexist in the same educational setting. Cultural diversity is a challenge for the educational community and must be considered in the ongoing training of professors at medical universities, fundamentally due to their contexts, socioeconomic environments and health problems, especially chronic non-communicable diseases due to their high prevalence and its impact on the individual and his or her family, influenced by risk factors and social determinants, conditioned by their origins, beliefs, experiences and representations that color current intercultural contexts worldwide.
RESUMO
Introducción: La malnutrición es una complicación hospitalaria asociada a mayor morbimortalidad, modi- ficable al mejorar la ingesta nutricional. Para esto es fundamental conocer la satisfacción del paciente sobre la alimentación intrahospitalaria. Actualmente, no existe una herramienta validada y adaptada a población chilena para evaluar dicha esfera. Objetivo: elaborar una adaptación transcultural del cuestionario validado ACHFPSQ, que ha demostrado ser capaz de identificar aspectos a mejorar en calidad y planificación de la alimentación intrahospitalaria y aplicar medidas correctivas a partir de sus observaciones con un impacto positivo en el servicio de alimentación. Materiales y métodos: La metodología de este proceso, aplicada en un foro interno entre los autores, se basó en una serie de traducciones desde el idioma original e inversas al español de Chile que fueron unificadas en un instrumento consenso con el cual se realizó una prueba piloto en 30 pacientes. Tras dicha prueba, se recogieron las sugerencias de los encuestados para aplicar modificaciones y un control de calidad de adaptaciones transculturales para definir la versión final del instrumento. Resultados: el foro de autores evaluó positivamente las traducciones, debiendo realizar una sola modificación aclarativa al instrumento. En la prueba piloto, un 93% requirió asistencia para completar la encuesta. Solo dos encuestados hicieron sugerencias, sin impacto en el instrumento final. Discusión y conclusión: el cuestionario se convierte en una nueva herramienta disponible para evaluar estándares de calidad de servicio y otros indicadores nutricionales, permitiendo objetivar el impacto de posibles cambios en los servicios de alimentación.
Introduction: Malnutrition is an inpatient complication associated with increased morbidity and mortality, modifiable by improving nutritional intake. For this, it is essential to know the patient's satisfaction regarding intra-hospital feeding. Currently there is no validated and adapted tool for the Chilean population to evaluate this area. Aim: to develop a cross-cultural adaptation of the validated ACHFPSQ questionnaire, which has shown to be capable of identifying aspects to improve in the quality and planning of intrahospital feeding and applying corrective measures based on its observations with a positive impact on the food service. Materials and methods: The methodology of this process, applied in an internal forum between the authors, was based on a series of translations from the original language and reverse into Chilean Spanish that were unified in a consensus instrument with which a pilot test was carried out in 30 patients. After this test, the respondents' suggestions were collected to apply modifications and a quality control for cross-cultural adaptations to define the final version of the instrument. Results: the authors' forum evaluated the translations positively, having to apply a single explanatory modification to the instrument. In the pilot test, 93% required assistance to complete the survey. Only two respondents made suggestions, with no impact on the final instrument. Discussion and conclusion: the questionnaire becomes a new tool available to evaluate service quality standards and other nutritional indicators, allowing to objectify the impact of possible changes in food services.
RESUMO
INTRODUÇÃO: As políticas de saúde infantil da Atenção Básica preconizam pela perspectiva do cuidado integral, associadas ao princípio da territorialidade. Contudo, abarcar a diversidade do território constitui-se enquanto um importante desafio para os profissionais de saúde responsáveis pelas consultas periódicas dos bebês, sobretudo em locais com forte tradição cultural hegemônica. OBJETIVO: O presente estudo buscou investigar as experiências e desafios de profissionais de saúde com a diversidade de cuidadores, saberes e práticas de cuidado nos atendimentos a bebês de 0 a 2 anos na Atenção Básica de Caxias do Sul, RS. MÉTODO: Trata-se de um estudo qualitativo envolvendo entrevistas online com 12 profissionais de saúde de quatro UBS da cidade, cujos dados foram analisados através de uma leitura psicanalítica. RESULTADOS e DISCUSSÃO: Constatou-se que há uma diversidade de cuidadores nas consultas dos bebês, sobretudo mães italianas, avós italianas e cuidadores imigrantes não italianos. Ainda, as consultas acabam se tornando um palco de embates entre profissionais e cuidadores, especialmente no tocante às dissonâncias sobre os saberes e práticas de cuidado ao bebê. CONCLUSÃO: Os saberes dos cuidadores que não estão em consonância com as políticas de saúde são percebidos pelos profissionais de saúde enquanto desafios na efetivação do cuidado integral dos bebês.
INTRODUCTION: Child health policies in Primary Health Care (PHC) operate from the perspective of comprehensive care, associated with the principle of territoriality. However, embracing the diversity of the territory is an important challenge for health professionals responsible for the infant's periodic consultations, especially in territories with a strong hegemonic cultural tradition. OBJECTIVE: This study sought to investigate the experiences and challenges of health professionals with the diversity of caregivers, traditional knowledge, and care practices regarding infants aged 0 to 2 years in PHC, in a southern city of Brazil. METHOD: This qualitative study involved online interviews with 12 health professionals from four PHC Centers, whose data were analyzed through a psychoanalytical reading. RESULTS and DISCUSSION: It was found that there is a diversity of caregivers in the infant's consultations, especially Italian mothers, Italian grandmothers and non-Italian immigrant caregivers. Moreover, the consultations become a stage for disparities between professionals and caregivers, especially because of the disagreements about the traditional knowledge and baby care practices. CONCLUSIONS: The caregiver's traditional knowledge that differs from the health policies end up being perceived by health professionals as challenges in the achievement of comprehensive care for infants.
INTRODUCCIÓN: Las políticas de salud infantil en Atención Primaria abogan por prácticas profesionales basadas en la perspectiva de la atención integral, asociada al principio de territorialidad. Sin embargo, acoger la diversidad del territorio es un desafío para los profesionales de la salud responsables de las consultas periódicas con los bebés, especialmente en lugares con una fuerte tradición cultural hegemónica. OBJETIVO: Este estudio investigó las experiencias y desafíos de los profesionales de salud con la diversidad de cuidadores, saberes y prácticas de cuidado en consultas de bebés de 0 a 2 años, en Atención Primaria de una ciudad del sur de Brasil. MÉTODO: Se trata de una investigación cualitativa que involucra entrevistas online con 12 profesionales de cuatro centros de salud, cuyos datos fueron analizados a través de una lectura psicoanalítica. RESULTADOS y DISCUSSIÓN: Se encontró que existe diversidad de cuidadores, especialmente madres/abuelas italianas y cuidadoras inmigrantes no italianas. Las consultas se convierten en escenario de enfrentamientos entre profesionales y cuidadores en lo que se refiere a los diferentes conocimientos y prácticas del cuidado. CONCLUSIÓN: Los conocimientos de los cuidadores que no se ajustan a las políticas de salud acaban siendo percibidos por los profesionales como desafíos en la concreción de la atención integral al bebé.

RESUMO
Buscamos reconhecer como conhecimentos feministas contribuem para (re)interpretações teórico-metodológicas, a partir da produção de pesquisas/intervenções relacionadas à gênero no contexto da cultura física. Alicerçados numa abordagem qualitativa, selecionamos textos feministas dos Estudos Culturais Físicos. Como resultado, argumentamos que os textos exploram formas de teorizar gênero e as múltiplas operações do poder social a partir da radicalidade do corpo como local central dessas relações; apontam para a autorreflexidade exercida pelas pesquisadoras ao narrarem suas experiências em pesquisas; e, acenam para o imperativo político como base para a mudança social progressiva, engajando-se com questões que transcendem a categoria "gênero".
We seek to recognize how feminist knowledge contributes to theoreticalmethodological (re)interpretations, based on the production of research/interventions related to gender in the context of physical culture. Based on a qualitative approach, we selected feminist texts from Physical Cultural Studies. As a result, we argue that the texts explore ways of theorizing gender and the multiple operations of social power based on the radicality of the body as the central location of these relationships; point to the self-reflexivity exercised by the researchers when narrating their research experiences; and, they point to the political imperative as a basis for progressive social change, engaging with issues that transcend the "gender" category.

Introducción: consecuencia de la pandemia a causa del coronavirus (SARS-CoV-2), desde el 2020 ha aumen-tado la generación de los residuos con riesgo biológico o infeccioso, usados en los protocolos de biosegu-ridad por parte de la ciudadanía en general y el talento humano en salud. Ello generó un alto riesgo para salud y un aumento en el índice de contaminación ambiental y degradación de los recursos naturales, que hasta el momento ha superado las expectativas para su mitigación. Desarrollo: para contrarrestar el impacto del aumento en el índice de contaminación ambiental, se reflexiona sobre la necesidad de buscar acciones medioambientales para mitigar el daño y ampliar el concepto sobre el medio ambiente y la importancia de la interacción y codependencia del ser humano con la naturaleza. Se plantea la idea de retomar elementos conceptuales del conocimiento de las culturas indígenas sobre la visión holística del ambiente, partiendo de una cosmovisión indígena del buen vivir, donde el ambiente y el ser humano se encuentran en constante equilibrio y armonía. Conclusión: se pretende encontrar, desde la cosmovisión indígena, posibles abordajes conceptuales que mitiguen el impacto de la contaminación ambiental a causa del coronavirus, así como la formulación de acciones estratégicas para la adecuada gestión de estos residuos
Introduction: Since 2020, due to the the Coronavirus (SARS-CoV-2) pandemic, there has been an increase in generation of waste with biological or infectious risk used in biosafety protocols by the community and human resources in health, which, in turn, generates a high rate of pollution and environmental degradation of natural resources that has so far exceeded expectations for mitigation.Development: To reduce the impact of this problematic situation, a reflection was made to strengthen the current public policies and implement environmental actions that seek to mitigate the damage, but, above all, to change the concept of the environment and increase awareness about the importance of interac-tion and codependency of human beings with nature. The idea of retaking conceptual elements of the knowledge of indigenous cultures regarding the holistic vision of the environment is proposed, starting from a Quechua worldview of good living, where the environment and the human being are in constant balance and harmony. Conclusions:This study is intended to determine, from the indigenous worldview, the possible conceptual approaches that mitigate the environmental impact, as well as to formulate strategic actions for the adequate management of the resultant waste.
Introdução: como consequência da pandemia causada pelo Coronavírus (SARS-CoV-2), desde 2020 houve um aumento na geração de resíduos com risco biológico ou infeccioso utilizados em protocolos de bios-segurança pelo público em geral e talentos humanos em saúde; o que gerou um alto risco à saúde e um aumento no índice de contaminação ambiental e degradação dos recursos naturais que até agora tem superado as expectativas para sua mitigação. Desenvolvimento: para neutralizar o impacto do aumento do índice de contaminação ambiental, é feita uma reflexão sobre a necessidade de buscar ações ambien-tais para mitigar os danos, e ampliar o conceito de meio ambiente e a importância da interação e code-pendência do ser humano com a natureza. Propõe-se a ideia de retomar elementos conceituais do conhe-cimento das culturas indígenas sobre a visão holística do meio ambiente, partindo de uma cosmovisão indígena do bem viver, onde o meio ambiente e o ser humano estão em constante equilíbrio e harmonia. Conclusão: pretende-se encontrar a partir da visão de mundo indígena, possíveis abordagens conceituais que mitiguem o impacto da contaminação ambiental devido ao coronavírus, bem como a formulação de ações estratégicas para o gerenciamento adequado desses resíduos

Objective To analyze the current cultural state of the hospital culture with multiple campuses,identify fac-tors influencing its development,and propose targeted strategies for integration and harmonization of culture across the hospital's branches.Methods The Cite Space was employed for the annual literature statistics and knowledge mapping of hospital culture of multiple campuses.A survey with a questionnaire was then conducted among 110 employees of a public dental hospital in Zhe-jiang Province.The factors influencing the development of culture were investigated.Results The volume of research literature on multi-campus hospital culture was observed to have been upsurge since 2020,with a rapid increase in the publications from 2020 to 2022.The knowledge map of keywords indicated a diversification in the research focuses on multi-campus public hospi-tals,with"cultural construction"emerging prominently between 2019 and 2020,with a burst strength of 1.47.Cultural construc-tion became a focal keyword in multi-campus hospital research.Pearson correlation analysis revealed multi-campus hospital cul-ture was significantly positively correlated with healthcare services,Party and group organization construction,image promotion,and human resource distribution across campuses(P<0.01).Conclusion Research on the construction of culture in multi-campus hospital is gaining momentum.As hospitals continue to expand in scale,there is a need to strengthen the Party-led gov-ernance,diversify cultural construction efforts,strategically plan disciplines,manage medical quality through homogenized ap-proaches,accommodate differences within the cultural system,and establish a unified brand image.
RESUMO
Background:Pen-pal clubs(PPC)are used worldwide for students to learn about different cultures and other skillsets without the need for travel.Many medical students are interested in global health opportunities abroad but costs,scheduling,and other barriers allow few to participate in such experiences.It is important that medical students have nuanced global medical perspectives and can contribute to the global medical community. Objective:The purpose of this study is to demonstrate that an international medical student PPC improves medical students'perspectives of cultural competency and global health engagement. Methods:In 2021,a novel medical student PPC was established that began between an American and Japanese medical school.Following a shareholders meeting,it was decided that the number of medical schools involved globally be expanded through previous institutional affiliations and online presences.In total,the club connected 50 American medical students and 52 medical students from 17 high-and middle-income countries.The primary form of communication was online;pen-pals were encouraged to communicate monthly using provided topics,although frequency and way of communication was their discretion.In February 2022,American PPC members were emailed a qualitative survey to assess the PPC's impact. Results:The survey was completed by 42%of American PPC members,95%of which were 22-26 years.Partic-ipants were preclinical medical students,60%whom were female and the majority either white(47%)or Asian(43%).Overall,the PPC positively influenced American medical students'perception of global medicine,medical education,and their cultural competency after joining the PPC compared to prior(P=0.004). Conclusion:PPCs encourage medical students to think from a global perspective and foster open-mindedness within varying social and cultural contexts.Having a global communication platform for students during medical school education may be an additional way to train aspiring global leaders.
RESUMO
Red doctor’s culture is a characteristic cultural system in the field of red and health during the revolutionary period, as well as an important part of China’s revolutionary culture. It differs from general medical culture, and its formation and development has unique historical implications. Therefore, it is necessary to deeply analyze the basic connotation of red doctor’s culture and explore the contemporary value it contains. In the new era, inheriting the red doctor’s culture is of great significance, which can effectively promote the construction of a healthy China in the new era, provide high-quality resources for ideological and political education in the new era, and become a new approach to inheriting the red gene. The successful inheritance of the red doctor’s culture is inseparable from the joint efforts of all sectors of society. Strengthening scientific research, optimizing the educational environment, and increasing cultural propaganda, can assist in the inheritance of red doctor’s culture, open a new chapter of it, make the red doctor’s culture deeply penetrate people’s hearts, and let the red bloodline be passed down from generation to generation.
RESUMO
@#Islam places significant emphasis on mental health, urging Muslims to approach it holistically. Until now, this characterization serves as a starting point for discussing the definition and scope of Islamic spiritual care. This research aimed to provide a comprehensive overview of al-Balkhi's contributions to Islamic psychology and their relevance to modern mental health practice. The methodology utilized in this research is a literature review that synthesized information from scientific texts, research reports, and historical accounts related to alBalkhi's work. This review synthesizes Abu Zayd al-Balkhi's pioneering contributions to Islamic mental health principles, focusing on his seminal work Masalih al-Abdan Wa al-Anfus (Sustenance of the Body and Soul). This review highlights the enduring relevance of al-Balkhi's insights in mental health care, advocating for a holistic approach rooted in Islamic principles. His classifications of depressive states and therapeutic methods, like exposure-based treatments, still influence modern psychotherapy. Al-Balkhi's holistic view emphasizes the link between spiritual and physical well-being. Analyzing his theories alongside current knowledge aids in diagnosing consistently and guiding therapy effectively. Integrating historical perspectives can enhance culturally sensitive mental health interventions within Muslim communities, respecting diverse cultural contexts.
RESUMO
The spirit of red doctor’s is an important ideological and spiritual wealth formed by the Communist Party of China in the process of revolutionary practice. It is an important part of the spirit of the Communist Party of China. It is composed of firm ideals and beliefs, noble value orientation, superb professional skills and simple work style. In view of the current medical humanities education problems such as insufficient attention, target alienation, and technology worship, how to explore the point of convergence between the spiritual education of the red doctor’s and the cultivation of the professional spirit of medical students from the perspective of the Healthy China strategy, give full play to the value of the era of the red doctor’s spirit and cultivate medical students’ professional spirit, which has important practical value for resolving doctor-patient contradictions and improving professional and technical level. Medical colleges and universities should promote the integration strategy of red doctor’s spirit and medical students’ professional spirit education at the levels of teachers, education and teaching, cultural inheritance and educational environment, improve the effect of professional spirit education with diversified teaching, let excellent teams cultivate the professional spirit of medical students, and make the red doctor’s spirit become the conscious value pursuit of medical students.
RESUMO
In order to build a global community of health for all, it is necessary to deeply understand the influencing factors of cross-cultural communication between medical professionals and patients. Factors such as different health beliefs, cultural values and communication mediators influence cross-cultural communication between medical professionals and patients, and then affect the medical satisfaction and treatment compliance. Medical education should adopt the learning concept of constructivism, advocate maintaining a humble cultural attitude, incorporate more patient perspectives and adopt cross-cultural teaching mode to improve the cross-cultural communication competence of medical students and medical staff, so as to establish a relationship based on communication and understanding.
RESUMO
With the acceleration of globalization, the number of foreigners in China is rising year by year, and their demand for medical treatment is also increasing. It is imperative to strengthen the supply of international professional medical services in China and improve the cross-cultural competence of medical staff. As the origin of cross-cultural medical competence research, the United States has accumulated rich theoretical and practical experience. By defining the concept and connotation of cross-cultural competence in the medical context and explaining its constituent elements, based on the experience of the United States and combined with the actual situation of China, this paper put forward that the cultivation path of cross-cultural competence of medical staff should be explored from the aspects of enhancing cross-cultural awareness of medical staff, strengthening cross-cultural medical competence training, and utilizing a variety of measures and tools.
RESUMO
Due to the difference of cultural background, the psychological, social and spiritual needs of dying people are very different, so there are great differences in the care and nursing concept of dying people in different countries and nationalities. In order to construct the modern hospice care, we should actively learn from the western experience, but more important is to dig the local ideological resources from the traditional culture, build a set of caring care theory and practice rooted in China and originated from the concept of a good end of Chinese traditional culture, with the characteristics of the times and the cultural confidence of the Chinese nation, serving the Chinese people, and with Chinese characteristics.
RESUMO
This paper collected and sorted out the cross-cultural medical practice in the top 20 US hospitals in 2019-2020 through web surveys, and summarized the concepts, featured projects and models of cross-cultural medical services in American hospitals. Generally, hospitals in the US advocate the service concept of "patient-centered", provide full-process services before, during and after the treatment, involving appointments, accommodation, transportation, language translation, medical process management, etc., and attach great importance to the role of culture factors in medical treatment and cross-cultural medical education and training for employees. On this basis, it is proposed that Chinese medical institutions should focus on the following aspects in the development of foreign-related medical services: conform to international medical service concepts and standards, improve the cross-cultural medical competence of medical staff and other groups, explore cross-cultural medical service models with localized characteristics, and build the international image of the hospital with the construction of international environment.
RESUMO
The great anti-epidemic spirit is the brightest spiritual symbol of the anti-epidemic struggle and the inheritance and development of the spirit of patriotism, collectivism and socialism.
