Iatrogeniа in internist practice
1I.M. Sechenov First Moscow State Medical University of the Ministry of Health of the Russian Federation (Sechenov University), Moscow, Russia.
The article presents the history of the issue, the concept of iatrogenia, possible negative consequences of the interaction of the doctor and the patient in modern conditions. The main forms of iatrogenic (psychogenic, hospital, iatrogenic diagnostic procedures, medicinal, etc.) are given. An important place is occupied by implantation of iatrogenic (patients with artificial heart valves, cardio-implanted electronic devices, coronary stents, articular endoprostheses). The most vulnerable to the development of iatrogenic are elderly and senile patients. The interdisciplinarity of the iatrogenic problem and its educational significance for therapists, general practitioners, clinical pharmacologists, pathologists. Keywords: iatrogeniа, iatrogenic events, undesirable drug reactions, мedical error.
