A survey of 148 family doctors attending a continuing medical education migraine update lecture was performed to assess whether family doctors like to treat migraine and other common disorders and the prevalence of migraine. Doctors were asked to respond to the following statement using a five-point Likert scale (from 1, strongly disagree to 5, strongly agree): ‘I like to treat patients with this disease or symptom’. The response rate was 53% with a mean age of 51.5 years. Doctors reported liking to treat general medical conditions more (mean = 4.40) than migraine (mean = 3.38) and other neurological diseases (mean = 3.20). Doctors reported a personal history of migraine in the prior 1 year of 22.8% and 45.6% lifetime, with 17% becoming aware for the first time that they personally had migraine after attending the lecture. Respondents with a personal history of migraine liked to treat migraine more than those without a history.

What is the place of medico-historical cases in the professional practice of the disciplinary field of medicine and biology? How can these patients from the past be used for teaching and continuing medical education? How to justify their place in biomedical publications? In this article, we explain all the legitimacy of paleomedicine, and the need to intensify such research in the form of a well-individualised branch of paleopathology and the history of medicine.

This article provides an overview of problem-based learning (PBL) in Canadian undergraduate medical education and continuing medical education (CME) programs. The CME field in Canada is described, and the major professional associations that require physicians to take annual courses and programs are noted. A brief history of PBL in undergraduate medical education is presented, along with definitions of PBL and a discussion of the strengths and weaknesses of the approach. Problem-based learning in CME has been adapted, in some cases, to suit its special circumstances; this is demonstrated by examples of how the CME departments of three universities have implemented PBL. Finally, the future of research in this field is reviewed.

First Time

For the first time in historiographe the article reconstructs the personal history of Kirill Alekseevich Naryshkin. This research is based on the personal and private letters of Naryshkin to the Tsar and Prince Alexander Menshikov. The former are extracted from various documentary collections, first of all, “Letters and Papers of Peter the Great”, the latter are found by the author in the Russian Archive of Ancient Acts and have not been studied before. The reconstruction is focused on the history of the career that was built by K. A. Naryshkin during the first one and a half decades of the 18th century. He successfully and efficiently ruled over the northwestern counties of Russia, solving the difficult tasks of endowing the Russian army, reorganizing garrison regiments, mapping and supervising fortifications on the adjoining lands of Ingria and eastern Estonia as a chief commandant (ober-komendant). However, after being appointed to the post of Moscow governor in 1716, the career of Naryshkin collapsed. Problems at work, tensions with the Senate, harassment by investigative and administrative authorities coincided with a personal drama – the death of his wife and serious property losses. The author both in the context of the general administrative situation of the era, and in line with the then established system of informal ties surrounded by Tsar Peter analyzes the reasons for the collapse of a capable and energetic manager.

The integration of technology into the education and continuous professional education of allied health professionals is evolving. Integrating simulation as an authentic instructional modality has changed how clinicians learn and practice the clinical knowledge, skills, and abilities they are required to be competent in to ensure patient safety. A lot of advances have been made in the utilization of simulation in various domains. Continuing medical education is such a domain, and this chapter will briefly describe the history of simulation, present simulation as an authentic instructional activity, examine education trends of using simulation-based learning, highlight two applicable theoretical frameworks, and present a case study that effectively utilized simulation as an authentic instructional strategy and assessment during a continuing medical education course for athletic trainers.

The medical profession has seen significant advancement in the availability of a variety of educational activities, across a range of formats and processes, to help physicians remain current and improve professional performance. The objectivity and quality of continuing medical education (CME) activities has been enhanced by the credit recognition systems of the American Academy of Family Physicians (AAFP), the American Medical Association (AMA), and the American Osteopathic Association (AOA). These credit systems also provide a metric for tracking compliance with a variety of regulatory requirements such as state medical licensure, hospital staff privileges, and health insurance plan participation, and are increasingly used as criteria for voluntarily obtaining and maintaining specialty certification and fulfilling requirements for membership in medical specialty societies. This article reviews the history of CME, the research that supports its value, and the opportunities that exist to address its challenges. It also explains how the Federation of State Medical Boards (FSMB) Maintenance of Licensure (MOL) framework incorporates and builds upon the research involving the effectiveness of CME for physician learning and improvement. Special focus is given to the CME credit systems and their features, the synergies among them, and the way in which various learning formats that can be certified for CME credit are aligned with the three recommended components of MOL.

Analysis of the state of scientific elaboration of the problem of distance learning in Ukraine and the experience of its implementation in the practice of higher education showed that despite some achievements, this pedagogical problem needs further research. Distance learning improves postgraduate training of doctors. The main purpose of teaching in postgraduate education is to achieve high-quality practical training based on knowledge, skills and abilities in traditional and modern educational technologies. Distance learning is a promising form of pedagogical technologies in the field of medical education, as it is more flexible and corresponds to modern realities of society.
