Why can't a doctor give medical advice to a patient's family?
The list of medical orders is filed throughout the patient's medical record after the patient is discharged from the hospital. It is the most direct representation of the patient's treatment process. Now the patient can go to the hospital case room to make copies after discharge. There is nothing to give or not to give, dare not give. As long as the patient and family needs, is unconditional copying.
You can get copies made and the daily list can be seen.
Nowadays, most hospitals use electronic medical records. Patients who want to check the medical advice list during their hospitalization can usually go to a specific checking machine, and sometimes they can check it on their cell phones after the hospital system has been updated. Since the medical advice can be checked at any time, I think the doctors do not exist to hide the medical advice from the patients' family members.
What's in a medical order form?
There is nothing mysterious about a medical prescription. What is written in it is nothing more than the doctor's instructions on diet, medication, tests and examinations according to the patient's treatment needs. It is generally divided into two categories: long-term medical advice and temporary medical advice. Long-term medical advice mainly includes dietary instructions, such as general food, liquid food, diabetic diet, low-salt and low-fat diet, fasting water, etc.; level of care, such as special, first-class, second-class care, etc.; position requirements, such as free position, semi-recumbent position, lying position, etc.; but also in a period of time need to be used in a timely manner in the medication and disposal, such as antibiotics, painkillers twice a day, once a day, urinary catheter, drainage tube care, etc.. Temporary medical orders mainly include some tests and examinations, such as routine blood tests, liver function, X-ray, CT blood collection and examination, etc.; there are also some temporary medications and dispositions, such as antibiotic test sensitivity, painkillers, bone traction treatment, anesthesia medications and so on. These things are very specialized, and sometimes, as an orthopedic surgeon, you can't even figure out the role of many anesthetics in the medical order form.

Why don't doctors give medical advice to patients' families?
It can be seen from the above that a doctor's order form records the medical treatment process of a patient during hospitalization, and its main purpose is to give instructions to nurses. Since the recipients of the order form are the nurses, why is it necessary to show the order to the patient's family members? Of course, if there are objections to the medical behavior, you can ask to see the list of medical advice. However, the order form is simple to say, but it is full of all kinds of medical drugs, terminology and abbreviations, such as propofol, parecoxib sodium, medium and long-chain fat emulsion, gangliosides, ivgtt, bid, qd, po, iv, im, etc., so obscure and difficult to understand, and I think that not many doctors still have the time to explain to the patients the meaning of each medical advice in the order form.

To cite a less appropriate example, this is like eating in a restaurant, the customer's task is to eat well and full, rather than letting the chef tell the customer every cooking process word for word, if the customer has diarrhea after eating, of course, you can ask the chef to make the cooking process clear, but whether or not there is really a problem, you have to look for a professional to evaluate.

In short, I think there is nothing to give or not to give, dare or not to give, the reason why doctors do not show medical advice to the patient's family is because it is supposed to be for nurses, and what the patient needs to do is to fully trust the doctor and work together to overcome the illness, instead of reading the medical advice list over and over again.
Original is not easy, get more interesting and useful medical science knowledge, welcome to like attention!
Doctor's orders. It is a treatment order given by a doctor to a nurse. The nurse follows the doctor's instructions to accomplish the treatment of the patient. I don't understand why this issue is being raised. If one day the health board mandates that medical orders be given to the patient's family, hospitals will enforce it.
I really don't know how to answer this question ...... Rhetorical question to the questioner, how do you intend to use the medical order when it is given to you? Do you take the order and carry it out yourself? Do you know what should be done in "Level II care", and do you understand the meaning of Qd and Tid? Even if you can do all these things, if the doctor orders a blood culture, are you going to draw blood and take it home for culture? Or what are you going to do?

Medical orders are of no practical value to patients and families
Medical order form is the ward doctors throughout the examination, treatment process is the most intuitive embodiment, he not only reflects the doctor to the patient what examination, with those drugs ...... and, medical order form is also a continuous record, in the event of medical error, medical malpractice, with medical records, can be used to push back on the doctor's diagnosis and treatment of whether or not there is a fault. However, the most important thing is that this However, the doctor's order form has no practical value for patients and their families during hospitalization!

A doctor's order form is just a few sheets of paper or a few forms in a computer, and it is just that - a few sheets of paper or a few forms in a computer - if it is not carried out by the relevant medical staff. What are you going to do with it? Wipe your ass, I'm afraid! What level of care to give, what tests to do, what drugs to use, what dose to give ...... these to you, you can do it yourself or plan to do? Therefore, the doctor's orders for medical personnel have great use, but for hospitalized patients and their families, and has no practical significance and practical value. What's more, the doctor's orders involve a lot of medical terminology, for a person who does not know medicine, even if you give you, you may not be able to read all understand, is not it?

The order form is a medical record document and must be kept on file by the hospital.
According to the relevant national laws and regulations, hospitalized patients' orders belong to the medical record documents, and the same as the medical record, etc., must be archived by the hospital. China's current implementation of medical disputes, reversal of proof, simply put, if the medical side can not get evidence to prove that they are not at fault, even if there is really no fault, it is also the responsibility of the medical side! Therefore, the medical record has become the most direct evidence of medical disputes, the whole process of diagnosis and treatment of fault, at a glance.

But once this thing is handed over to the patient to keep, if there is a medical dispute, how many people do you think the patient as the plaintiff side will be willing to take out these medical record documents that are not favorable to their side? Lost, accidentally burned ...... reasons are many. In this way, but any medical disputes, the medical side to lose almost no doubt! That's why the state stipulates that the medical record information must be kept by the medical side, and can not be handed over to the patient side. If necessary, the patient can apply for judicial sealing, after the sealing of the doctor does not have the right to make any changes. Otherwise, the doctor is suspected of violating the law and will be severely punished by the law. Only by doing so can the interests of both parties be protected to the greatest extent possible.

You can't take the orders with you, but you can make copies.
Although the relevant laws and regulations stipulate that the medical prescription list cannot be kept by the patient, it does not infringe on the patient's right to know. It is completely open to the patient, and if necessary, the patient can make unconditional copies of the entire order form through regular channels. In other words, you can take all the contents of the order form with you by photocopying it, except for a few sheets of the order form itself. What is there to say that you can't give it to the patient? Photocopying is not copying, and while copying may involve intentional or unintentional undercopying or omission, photocopying is "copying" the original, word for word!

In summary, the questioner's question is a clear misrepresentation of the concept. The medical prescription list is always completely open to the patient, and as long as the patient has the need, he or she can make a copy of the entire medical prescription list unconditionally! The only difference is that the original can not be taken out of the hospital, but must be copied, and how come "hospitals can not give the patient's family"?

Medical advice is part of the medical record, and when the patient's family has to access the medical record, it should be the complete medical record ...... to ensure that the respective rights of doctors and patients are protected ......
There is a daily list for hospitalization, which is much more detailed than medical advice, and if you need medical advice, you can go to the case room to make a copy of it after filing the medical record, not to mention outpatient medical advice, and there is a detailed breakdown of payments, as well as medical advice in the outpatient medical record.
Daily lists, infusion slips before the nurse hangs up the needle, what's not to understand?
Our hospital prescription are printed out to the patient or family members, there is no cover up, now is what you what disease with what drugs, do what test, basically transparent, do not understand the people can also go to find out for themselves. But no one will read it, and there is no curiosity.
Families need to combine a shooting team in the future to see the doctor, that way take the dead. What do not know how to ask vigorously, do not understand to explain to understand. The patient waited on the line, otherwise the family can not let the doctor to treat the patient!
