扩大传统医学在卫生保健中的覆盖面是越南的一个优先事项。继续医学教育在保证医学培训质量方面发挥着重要作用。然而，关于越南TM从业者的TM CME证据不足。本文旨在评估越南地区医院TM提供者对TM CME的认识、实践和需求。本横断面描述性研究是在清化省综合医院TM医院和TM科的地区一级进行的。通过面对面访谈收集人口统计学特征、认知、实践和对TM CME的需求。采用描述性统计和多变量逻辑回归模型来研究与TM CME的意识、实践和需求相关的因素。大多数受访者（87.5%）听说过TM CME。只有60%的人在过去五年中接受过超觉静坐培训。大多数受访者对CME有需求（86.8%）。非京族人（OR = 0.2, 95% CI: 0.1-0.8）和有临时合同的人（OR = 0.2, 95% CI: 0.1-0.7）不太可能听说过TM CME。教育水平较高的群体（大学，OR = 14.1, 95% CI = 1.0-195.9；本科，OR = 9.1, 95% CI = 1.9-44.6）比职业训练组更有可能听说过TM CME。那些定期更新知识的人更有可能听说过TM CME (OR = 7.7, 95% CI = 2.8-21.7)，更有可能对TM CME有需求（OR = 3.7, 95% CI = 1.2-11.5）。那些听说过TM CME的人在过去五年内更有可能参加这些课程（OR = 6.9, 95% CI = 2.5-18.8）。然而，对于经验更多年的人来说，结果正好相反（OR = 0.9, 95% CI: 0.8-0.9）。对TM持续医学教育的认识和参与有限，但越南地区医院的TM提供者对CME的需求很高。促进终身学习和及时提供支持将有可能增加TM CME的需求和TM提供者的参与。
Expanding traditional medicine (TM) coverage in health care is a priority in Vietnam. Continuous medical education (CME) plays an important role in ensuring the quality of TM. However, evidence about TM CME in TM practitioners in Vietnam is insufficient. This paper aimed to evaluate the awareness, practice, and demands on TM CME among TM providers in district hospitals of Vietnam. This cross-sectional descriptive study was performed at the district level at TM hospitals and TM departments of general hospitals in Thanh Hoa Province. Demographic characteristics, awareness, practice, and demand for TM CME were collected via face-to-face interviews. Descriptive statistics and multivariable logistic regression models were applied to examine the factors associated with awareness, practice, and demand for TM CME. The majority of the respondents had ever heard of TM CME (87.5%). Only 60% received TM training in the last five years. Most respondents had a demand for CME (86.8%). The non-Kinh ethnic group (OR = 0.2, 95% CI: 0.1-0.8) and people who had a temporary contract (OR = 0.2, 95% CI: 0.1-0.7) were less likely to be ever heard about TM CME. Higher levels of education (college, OR = 14.1, 95% CI = 1.0-195.9; undergraduate, OR = 9.1, 95% CI = 1.9-44.6) are more likely to be ever heard of TM CME than the vocational training group. Those who regularly update their knowledge are more likely to have heard about TM CME (OR = 7.7, 95% CI = 2.8-21.7) and are more likely to have demands on TM CME (OR = 3.7, 95% CI = 1.2-11.5). Those who had heard about TM CME were more likely to take these courses in the last five years (OR = 6.9, 95% CI = 2.5-18.8). However, this result was the opposite for people with more years of experience (OR = 0.9, 95% CI: 0.8-0.9). There were limited awareness and participation in TM CME but was a high need for CME among TM providers at district hospitals in Vietnam. Promoting lifelong learning and providing promptly supports would be potential to increase the TM CME demands and participation among TM providers.
