DIA-Person Integration Model to increase the quality of teaching, research and medical care. A person-oriented
1Teaching and Research Division, Centro Médico ABC, Mexico City, Mexico.
Abstract:
Current model of medicine has made for medical care, teaching and research to be driven apart, with an impact on the patient: during the process of care, the doctor fails to apply the scientific method, he only treats the ailment without accompanying the patient. The medical researcher looks for answers to questions far removed from patient ailments and, in the best-case scenario, conducts research on patient specimens. In addition, the student-teacher dyad is characterized by the transmission of knowledge and leaves aside understanding of the patient. Patients, doctors, researchers and students are oblivious to decision-making and, without questioning, they merely follow processes. One way to address the problem is to return to the DIA-person Integration Model: "concern and doing for the person, accompanied by the integration of teaching, research and medical care", which would allow the transfer of knowledge, skills and benefits from one activity to others. The model consists of contrasting the patient condition with knowledge, carrying out research during and parallel to the medical care-teaching process, as well as applying the architecture of research model "clinical judgment structured description", as a reference and reflection process that integrates the activities of teaching-research and person-oriented medical care.
