The doctor's order system of electronic anamnesis is the bridge between HIS system and a much better service, especially when the HIS system is focused on its billing function. In practice, we continuously perfect and better the interface and functions of medical advising inputs to effectively standardize doctors' orders and lessen mistakes. It can also enhance working efficiency, and set a valid platform for medical billing management, rationalized drug use management, antibiotic classification management, clinical application, etc.

Programs that promote health through schools (school health programs), when delivered through schools that are themselves organized to promote health (health-promoting schools), are one of the essential means through which the twin goals of "Health for All by the Year 2000" and "Education for All" can be achieved. There are numerous evidences that school health programs are cost-effective and highly beneficial for adolescents themselves and communities they are belonged to. These days, the world's trend for school health programs has two directions. One is that to achieve best goals for school health, well-organized efforts are needed from governments, communities, schools, parents, and doctors. So, a new concept of 'comprehensive school health programs' is emerging. The other is that physicians should play an active roles not only for the school health promotion and school health education but also for the other steps including marking polices, and advising community members who are concerned with school health services. Now, it is also time for Korean doctors to be an advocate for comprehensive school programmes and to participate actively in those programs.

BACKGROUND: Family physicians are interested in health promotion for maintaining one's sound health. But there is little information on what patients think about the practice of health promotion by family physicians. Therefore, we found out whether patients think that it is appropriate for family physicians to be concerned about problems relating to four health risk factors, and the patients' perception both of their own health problems and of the concern actually shown by their family physicians. METHODS: Patients who had visited our two family medicine offices from March to August 1998 was asked to complete a self administered questionnaire. Questions on attitudes to wards and perceptions of family physicians' interest in weight, smoking, drinking, and fitness problems were included. 586 questionnaires with adequate response were analyzed using chi square test and Mantel Haenszel's linear trend test. RESULTS: A total of 586 respondents consisted of 230 men and 356 women. Of the respondents, the proportion of people who thought that family physicians should be concerned about the health risk factors ranged from 83.6% in the case of smoking to 86.5% of fitness, but 76.6% thought their family physicians had in fact been interested in smoking and 72.2% thought so about fitness. There was a significant age group trend in the case of attitudes towards family physician concern for smoking with larger proportions of older patients (p<0.01). Significantly more women than men thought that their family physicians seemed interested in health risk factor with 62.2% to 70.0% in men and 78.6% to 80.9% in women (p<0.001). There were significant age group differences in proportions who thought that their family physicians seemed interested in weight (p<0.001), smoking (p<0.001), and drinking (p<0.05) problems except for fitness problem. 31.6% of the respondents thought that they had a weight problem, 20.5% smoking problem, 14.0% drinking problem, and 28.2% fitness problem. CONCLUSION: These results suggest that many patients thought that most of their family physicians seemed interested in health promotion, but felt the need that they should be come more interested.

Smoking and tobacco addiction are serious public health problems worldwide. New research reveals that addiction to tobacco can begin very early, with very low levels of smoking. Family physicians are in a unique position to prevent smoking initiation by youths and to diagnose and treat tobacco addiction in young smokers. In this paper we discuss the factors that prompt youths to try smoking, how quickly addiction to tobacco begins after the onset of smoking, how a family physician can determine whether a young patient is addicted, and what the physician can do to prevent adolescent patients from beginning to smoke or to assist them to quit if they already smoke.
