Diagnostiskt prov i klinisk nutrition för läkarstuderande [Diagnostic test in clinical nutrition for medical students] : provresultat visar att utbildningen i klinisk nutrition måste förbättras [Test results show that training in clinical nutrition must be improved]

• A national core curriculum in clinical nutrition was approved by the Section for Nutrition in the Swedish Society of Medicine in 1995. Here we report on the results of an anonymous diagnostic test based on this core curriculum in clinical nutrition, administered to medical students at the end of medical school. The test was the same for students in Linköping, Lund and Stockholm. Only 42% of the participants obtained an acceptable test result, with the score in Lund being significantly lower than those in Linköping and Stockholm. We compare the results with a similar test administered in Stockholm in 1996, and discuss current developmental work in clinical nutrition being done in all the medical faculties in Sweden.
