Abstract

Background: A 1985 law in the Islamic Republic of Iran integrated all health-related educational institutions into the Ministry of Health and established the Ministry of Health and Medical Education to set policies.

Aims: We aimed to classify the value concept of the policies that prioritized and to develop a conceptual value-based framework, for the Islamic Republic of Iran's healthcare and medical education systems.

Methods: We conducted this qualitative study using a critical, thematic content analysis of value-based statements and policy documents on health and the development of medical education published from 2009 to 2019 in the Islamic Republic of Iran. A total of 210 documents were reviewed and 7 were critically analysed. Value concepts were identified and coded.

Results: A total of 69 value concepts were classified into 28 subthemes and 5 main themes: mission values, principal values, procedural values, implementation values, and outcome values. We identified the pattern of the fundamental values to present our conceptual framework.

Conclusion: This comprehensive value-based framework can help establish a supportive value-based culture among policymakers, identify under- and over-emphasized issues, and enhance the incorporation of fundamental values across the health and medical education system.

将基本价值观纳入伊朗伊斯兰共和国卫生和医学教育系统的概念性框架。

背景:伊朗伊斯兰共和国1985年的一项法律将所有与卫生有关的教育机构纳入卫生部，并设立了卫生和医学教育部来制定政策。目的:我们旨在对优先考虑的政策的价值概念进行分类，并为伊朗伊斯兰共和国的医疗保健和医学教育系统制定概念价值框架。方法:我们对伊朗伊斯兰共和国2009年至2019年发表的关于健康和医学教育发展的基于价值的声明和政策文件进行了批判性的专题内容分析，进行了这项定性研究。共审查了210份文件，并对7份文件进行了批判性分析。价值概念被识别和编码。结果:共69个价值概念分为28个子主题和5个主要主题:任务价值观、主要价值观、程序价值观、实施价值观和结果价值观。我们确定了基本价值的模式来呈现我们的概念框架。结论:这一基于价值观的综合框架有助于在决策者中建立一种支持性的基于价值观的文化，识别被低估和过度强调的问题，并加强基本价值观在整个卫生和医学教育系统中的纳入。
