以問卷調查評估日本在2009年醫學院的營養教育狀況。2004年曾進行類似的調查,在當時日本醫學院的營養教育被認為是不足的。現行的問卷被寄送給80所醫學院的醫學教育中心的主管,他們代表所有日本的醫學院。計67所(83.8%)醫學院回覆,其中25所(37.3%)提供專門的營養課程,36所學校(53.7%)沒有提供專門的營養課程,但在其他課程有提供營養相關資訊;6所學校沒有提供任何的營養教育。整體來看,61所學校(91.0%)在他們的大學學程中,提供至少一些營養主題。不過,依據他們的教學大綱判斷,似乎只有11所學校(16.4%)給予超過5小時實質的營養教育。雖然課程的平均長度為11小時,實質上營養教育只有4.2小時。提供專門營養課程的25所醫學院當中,有7所學校提供獨立的營養課程,另18所學校的營養課程是整合性課程的一部份。總結,日本營養教育的狀況已經稍微改善但仍然是不足的。
A questionnaire survey was used to determine the status of nutrition education in Japanese medical schools in 2009. A similar survey was conducted in 2004, at which time nutritional education was determined to be inadequate in Japanese medical schools. The current questionnaire was sent to the directors of Centers for Medical Education of 80 medical schools, who represented all medical schools in Japan. Sixty-seven medical schools (83.8%) responded, of which 25 schools (37.3%) offered dedicated nutrition courses and 36 schools (53.7%) did not offer dedicated nutrition courses but offered something related to nutrition in other courses; six schools (9.0%) did not offer any nutrition education. Overall, 61 schools (91.0%) offered at least some nutritional topics in their undergraduate education. Nevertheless, only 11 schools (16.4%) seem to dedicate more than 5 hours to substantial nutrition education as judged by their syllabi. Although the mean length of the course was 11 hours, substantial nutrition education accounted for only 4.2 hours. Of the 25 medical schools that offered dedicated nutrition courses, seven schools offered the nutrition course as a stand-alone course and 18 schools offered it as an integrated course. In conclusion, the status of nutrition education in Japan has improved slightly but is still inadequate.
