Özet

Purpose: Traditional and complementary medicine, which is being used more and more all over the world, has also become widespread in our country. However, the medical school could not find enough place in the curriculum. In this study, it was aimed to show the level of knowledge and awareness of medical faculty students about traditional and complementary medicine.Method: In the study, an e-questionnaire was delivered to the 1st and 6th grade students of the medical faculty with the help of "Google Forms". A 24-question survey consisting of GETAT application methods and some descriptive questions was applied to the participants. Analyzes were analyzed by SPSS.Results: A total of 166 medical faculty students participated in the study. Most of the students were female students (% 62). Students from all classes participated in the study. The students stated that they knew the most about acupuncture and the least about plorotherapy. Nearly half of the students (46.4%) thought that GETAT applications should be included in the medical school curriculum. It was observed that towards upper grades, students stated their GETAT knowledge level more.Results and Discussion: It was observed that medical faculty students were frequently interested in GETAT applications, but they did not find their knowledge sufficient on this subject. In this sense, new education models and curriculum arrangements are needed.
