摘要

背景:多年来,意大利一直受到不一致和矛盾的媒体宣传。一方面,“媒体”向我们提供有关医学进步的大胆和令人放心的信息;另一方面,每当医疗没有达到预期的效果时,他们就容易受到条件反射式的批评,经常把这种情况描述为“malasanit”的明显例子,这是一个最近新造的意大利词,用来表示医疗事故。报纸上关于健康治疗的法律程序的报道常常错误百出,缺乏任何科学依据。数据来源:已公布的数据证实,针对医生和医疗机构的诉讼数量高得不可持续,同时还存在因真实或指称的医疗差错或归咎于医疗机构工作的失误而要求赔偿的情况。结论和影响:目前,意大利公民比过去更了解自己的健康权,患者的期望也有所提高。目前的医学状况与个别医生和保健机构的能力之间出现了差距。最后,需要加强对保健服务质量的监测,并更加重视预防健康风险。

Medical malpractice, defensive medicine and role of the "media" in Italy.

Background: For many years until now, Italy has been subjected to an inconsistent and contradictory media campaign. On one hand the "media" present us with bold and reassuring messages about the progress of medical science; on the other hand they are prone to kneejerk criticism every time medical treatment does not have the desired effect, routinely describing such cases as glaring examples of "malasanità", an Italian word of recent coinage used to denote medical malpractice. Newspaper reports of legal proceedings involving health treatment are frequently full of errors and lack any scientific basis.

Data sources: The published data confirm the unsustainably high number of lawsuits against doctors and medical structures, accompanied by demands for compensation arising from true or alleged medical errors or mistakes blamed on the work of health structures.

Conclusions and implications: Currently Italian citizens have a greater awareness of their right to health than in the past, and patients' expectations have risen. A discrepancy is emerging between the current state of medical science and the capacities of individual doctors and health structures. Lastly, there is a need for greater monitoring of the quality of health care services and a greater emphasis on health risk prevention.
