[The current problems in the postgraduate training of military physicians]

The existing medical intern-structures of Military Districts and Fleets cannot meet modern requirements on post-graduate training of military physicians because of its restricted possibilities. It is proposed to reform these structures in the regional Military Medical Institutes (each institute in the interests of several Military Districts or Fleets) for advanced training of physicians. The further improvement of the military physicians' qualification will require new forms and methods of training. It's necessary to increase the efficiency and quality of current and long-term planning of the training process by a wide application of computers. It is reasonable to conduct proficiency test cycles, which will directly influence upon further transfer or/and medical classification estimate of the physician. The training must be performed concerning the principle "work-and-study". The goals of training must converge towards further medical activities, and the final results of studies must provide for thorough professional skill of the physician. It is advisable to apply more widely the active methods of training, such as practical and clinic games, methods of concrete situation analysis, etc.
