The usage rates range from 6% to 37 %, which is comparable to the data from the literature. Doctors' attitude towards CAM and the possibility of coexistence of alternative and conventional medicine are two important issues addressed byfamily practice. Only 28.9 % of patients consult their family doctors about the use of CAM, and 38.2 % report the use of alternative medicine to their doctors. In 23.8% of cases, doctors themselves recommended the use of some form of alternative treatment The level of patient satisfaction with family practice does not seem to predict the use of CAM. In only 34 % of cases wereCAM healers interested in the history of previous conventional treatment. They referred 20.1 % of their patients back to family practitioners, and in 4.6 % of cases they discouraged the use of conventional therapiesPrispevek predstavlja nekaj podatkov o različnih oblikah komplementarnih in alternativnih oblik zdravilstva (KAM) ter o pogostosti njihove uporabe med slovenskimi bolniki. Ta se giblje med 6 in 37 %, kar je primerljivo s podatki iz literature. Družinsko medicino poleg tega zanima tudi odnos zdravnikov do tega fenomena in možnost sobivanja KAM in klasične medicine. Le 28,9 % bolnikov se pred uporabo o KAM posvetuje s svojim zdravnikom in le 38,2 % bolnikov naknadno zdravniku pove o pretekli uporabi KAM. 23,8 % bolnikom je zdravnik priporočil KAM. Med napovednimi dejavniki za uporabo KAM zadovoljstvoz delom zdravnika družinske medicine ne igra nobene vloge. Na drugi strani so zdravilci povprašali po dosedanjem zdravljenju pri zdravniku le 34 % preiskovancev in jih v 20,1 % napotil k svojemu zdravniku družinske medicine ter jim le v 4,6 % primerih odsvetovali medicinsko zdravljenjeTEXTznanstveno časopisjejournalsSlovenian National E-content AggregatorNational and University Library of SloveniaInštitut za varovanje zdravja RS
