Investigation and Research on the Current Situation of Medical Students’ Cognition of Precision Medicine in Chengdu University of Traditional Chinese Medicine

Abstract

The essence of “precision medicine” is a new medical concept belonging to Western medicine, but many researchers have found that there are certain similarities between traditional medicine and precision medicine in China. In the context of the development of precision medicine, it is in the interests of the Chinese people to promote the process of refining Chinese medicine (Quan Xiao Cup, He Lisha & Zhao Linhua, 2016). Investigating and studying the awareness, attitude, and appeal of clinical students of higher TCM colleges and universities to precision medicine has practical value. In this study, the data were collected by questionnaire survey method, and some students of Chengdu University of Traditional Chinese Medicine were used as the survey subjects, and descriptive statistical analysis and chi-square testing were used to analyze the data. The data analysis results show that the awareness rate of “precision medicine” is low among the groups interviewed in higher Chinese medicine colleges, and only a small part of this group is learned through classroom learning, but most of them express interest in the knowledge of “precision medicine” and hope that the school can introduce the knowledge of “precision medicine”. According to the survey results, this paper provides a reference for this group, higher Chinese medicine colleges and universities, and the government to deal with the development of “precision medicine”.
