[Consultation system in Tenri Hospital from a physician's perspective]. 1997

K Hatta
Comprehensive Care and Education, Tenri Hospital.

Tenri hospital is a large hospital with 1,001 beds, and is famous in Japan for its unique resident system. Two doctors and more than 120 technicians work in the department of clinical pathology. In this paper, the status of the consultation system in the field of clinical pathology is described from the perspective of a physician. Most physicians do not find it inconvenient to consult about laboratory tests and they come to know whom and how to consult. However, some new doctors sometimes have difficulties with consulting. As for residents, they can rotate in clinical pathology if they wish. All residents who rotated in each of the 4 divisions of clinical pathology said that their training was very useful. They did not learn procedures in depth because the period was short. However, they came to understand the entire departmental system, became acquainted with medical technologists and laboratory physicians, and could easily consult concerning laboratory tests. Communication and mutual understanding is a very important factor in consultation.
