中醫(yī)藥事業(yè)發(fā)展現(xiàn)狀

新中國成立55年來，在黨和政府的關(guān)懷下，我國的中醫(yī)藥事業(yè)取得了長足的發(fā)展。

一、以中醫(yī)醫(yī)院為主體的中醫(yī)醫(yī)療保健服務(wù)體系基本形成。目前，全國有中醫(yī)醫(yī)院2868所，中醫(yī)類醫(yī)院床位28萬余張，中醫(yī)執(zhí)業(yè)醫(yī)師（含助理醫(yī)師）27萬余人；大部分綜合醫(yī)院設(shè)立了中醫(yī)科；2003年全國中醫(yī)醫(yī)院診療人次達(dá)2.06億人次，綜合醫(yī)院中醫(yī)科門診人次達(dá)5636萬人次。在社區(qū)，有89%的社區(qū)衛(wèi)生服務(wù)中心和50%的社區(qū)衛(wèi)生服務(wù)站提供中醫(yī)藥服務(wù)。為發(fā)揮中醫(yī)藥特色優(yōu)勢，目前全國建設(shè)了137所示范中醫(yī)醫(yī)院，161個重點?？疲▽２。?。中醫(yī)藥既對一些慢性病、疑難病、老年性疾病、功能性疾病和病毒性疾病等有很好的療效，同時在急性傳染病的防治中也可以發(fā)揮作用。實踐證明使用中醫(yī)藥治療非典是安全的。中醫(yī)藥早期治療艾滋病，可用于治療機(jī)會性感染，調(diào)節(jié)免疫功能，減毒增效，提高病人的生存質(zhì)量，同時，成本低，無明顯的毒副作用。

二、農(nóng)村中醫(yī)工作得到加強(qiáng)。在農(nóng)村，約70%的縣建有中醫(yī)院，70%的鄉(xiāng)鎮(zhèn)衛(wèi)生院設(shè)有中醫(yī)科，40%的鄉(xiāng)村醫(yī)生采用中醫(yī)或中西醫(yī)兩種方法為患者治病。國家和地方積極開展農(nóng)村中醫(yī)工作先進(jìn)縣建設(shè)，近年，建成全國中醫(yī)工作先進(jìn)縣113個、在建單位111個。國家中醫(yī)藥管理局為各地縣級中醫(yī)醫(yī)院培訓(xùn)技術(shù)骨干3000名，為西部地區(qū)貧困縣中醫(yī)醫(yī)院（含民族醫(yī)醫(yī)院）培養(yǎng)了600余名中醫(yī)?？萍夹g(shù)骨干人才。目前組織研究、整理中醫(yī)臨床診療技術(shù)216項，部分進(jìn)入驗收階段，其中15項已通過鑒定，并積極組織向農(nóng)村推廣。對四川、湖南等8省啟動了農(nóng)村無學(xué)歷鄉(xiāng)村醫(yī)生開展學(xué)歷教育的試點工作，努力提高鄉(xiāng)村醫(yī)生的學(xué)歷層次和業(yè)務(wù)水平。

三、中醫(yī)藥學(xué)術(shù)水平不斷提高，科研成果大量涌現(xiàn)。據(jù)統(tǒng)計，全國現(xiàn)有獨立的中醫(yī)藥科研機(jī)構(gòu)100余所，科研專業(yè)技術(shù)人員1萬余人。不少從事自然科學(xué)研究的院所、企業(yè)積極參與中醫(yī)藥科研，形成了行業(yè)內(nèi)外結(jié)合、多學(xué)科參與、聯(lián)合攻關(guān)的中醫(yī)藥科研格局。目前有國家級中醫(yī)藥藥品非臨床研究質(zhì)量管理規(guī)范中心2個，藥品臨床試驗管理規(guī)范中心7個，中藥工程技術(shù)研究中心8個，國家中醫(yī)藥管理局中醫(yī)藥科研三級實驗室138個和規(guī)范化藥理實驗室3個。初步建成了全國中醫(yī)藥科學(xué)數(shù)據(jù)資源共建、共享平臺。在文獻(xiàn)和基礎(chǔ)研究方面，已整理、出版中醫(yī)古籍600余種，近年來從國外影印回歸200多種善本中醫(yī)古籍；出版《中華本草》巨著，對8980種中藥進(jìn)行了全面、系統(tǒng)的整理、研究；國家重點基礎(chǔ)研究發(fā)展計劃 方劑關(guān)鍵科學(xué)問題的基礎(chǔ)研究，對中藥復(fù)方藥效學(xué)物質(zhì)基礎(chǔ)及作用機(jī)理進(jìn)行了深入研究，初步揭示了藥物配伍的科學(xué)內(nèi)涵；證候的規(guī)范及其與疾病、方劑相關(guān)的基礎(chǔ)問題研究正在進(jìn)行之中；我國制定的針灸經(jīng)穴標(biāo)準(zhǔn)逐步得到世界的認(rèn)可。在臨床研究方面，對心腦血管疾病、肝病、腎病等疾病的治療形成了比較成熟、規(guī)范可行的診療方案。十五以來，中醫(yī)藥成果獲國家科學(xué)技術(shù)獎11項，其中血瘀證與活血化瘀研究獲2003年國家科技進(jìn)步一等獎。

四、中醫(yī)藥教育形成了現(xiàn)代化教育方式和師承教育相結(jié)合的教育網(wǎng)絡(luò)，基本建立了多形式、多層次、多專業(yè)的中醫(yī)藥教育體系。目前，全國有高等中醫(yī)藥院校32所，中等中醫(yī)藥?？茖W(xué)校45所，中醫(yī)藥院校在校學(xué)生27萬。全國有58所高等醫(yī)學(xué)院校和綜合性院校設(shè)置中醫(yī)藥院、系或?qū)I(yè)，184所衛(wèi)生學(xué)校開設(shè)中醫(yī)藥專業(yè)。中醫(yī)藥24個重點學(xué)科（78個建設(shè)點）已進(jìn)入中期評估階段。組織編寫出版了新世紀(jì)中醫(yī)藥本科教材46門。開展中醫(yī)藥繼續(xù)教育工作，以繼承名老中醫(yī)的學(xué)術(shù)思想、臨床經(jīng)驗為目標(biāo)，先后共確定老中醫(yī)藥專家1607人次，培養(yǎng)繼承人2285人。啟動了優(yōu)秀中醫(yī)臨床人才研修項目，第一批在全國遴選了215名中青年臨床學(xué)術(shù)骨干進(jìn)行培訓(xùn)。

七、中醫(yī)藥對外交流與合作日益增多，國際傳播進(jìn)一步擴(kuò)大。

截至2004年9月，在我國與外國政府簽訂的雙邊、多邊衛(wèi)生協(xié)議中包含中醫(yī)藥條款的有49個，專門的中醫(yī)藥協(xié)議17個。據(jù)對全國28個省市中醫(yī)藥機(jī)構(gòu)的統(tǒng)計，1998年至2002年，中國境外來訪的傳統(tǒng)醫(yī)藥方面的訪問團(tuán)組的批次，年均增長率20%；中醫(yī)藥派出團(tuán)組批次，年均增長率超過6%。與世界衛(wèi)生組織的合作促進(jìn)了全球傳統(tǒng)醫(yī)學(xué)戰(zhàn)略的制定和實施，世界衛(wèi)生組織與我國合作建立的7個傳統(tǒng)醫(yī)學(xué)合作中心發(fā)揮了積極的影響。總部設(shè)在北京的世界針灸學(xué)會聯(lián)合會現(xiàn)有43個國家和地區(qū)的77個中醫(yī)藥團(tuán)體，世界中醫(yī)藥學(xué)會聯(lián)合會現(xiàn)有48個國家和地區(qū)的138個中醫(yī)藥團(tuán)體。據(jù)不完全統(tǒng)計,目前，在中國境外有中醫(yī)醫(yī)療包括針灸機(jī)構(gòu)5萬多家，在當(dāng)?shù)刈葬樉膸煶^10萬人，中醫(yī)師超過2萬名。2003年的統(tǒng)計資料表明，全國高等中醫(yī)藥院校在校留學(xué)生3221名，居自然科學(xué)類中留學(xué)生人數(shù)的首位。下一步的工作思路和重點

Way of Thinking and the Priorities in the Future

I.Participation of TCM to the Public Health System Construction

TCM should take an active part in Emergency Response System of the Public Health Construction.The capability of TCM to response the urgent Public Health events should be further enhanced,TCM should be integrated to the Response System for emergent Public Health events,therefore,the professional teams and experts counseling panel for the urgent medical problems should be established.The professional and universal training should be provided,and attention should be given to the construction of the clinical base for the integrated treatment of TCM and western medicine,and the establishment of Emergency Unit in the TCM hospitals,therefore to further upgrade the standards for the prevention and control of the major diseases.
