With regard to future curricular developments, a consideration of attitudes and needs of medical students regarding the topics of medical errors and patient safety seems necessary. A goal-directed undergraduate education can promote an open culture and can lead to safety and satisfaction for both patients and medical professionals.

Some disagreements regarding the patho-physiology, diagnosis, treatment and prevention of asthma still prevail. Nevertheless, in order to better appreciate its complexity, openness to and persistent consideration for interdisciplinary as well as sex- and gender-related factors is required of the medical-research community in future investigations.

An AMTS-PSI-set was identified by a systematic review and recognised as valid for transferring it to the pharmacotherapy care of the German Health Care System by the "qualify-instrument".

Originalien Rauchen ist das bedeutendste Einzelrisiko für prävenierbare Erkrankungen. Die Exposition durch Eltern gefährdet die Unversehrtheit von Ungeborenen, Neugeborenen und (Klein-)Kindern. Sie erhöht die Morbidität, die Anzahl der Krankenhauseinweisungen und die vermeidbaren Kosten im Gesundheitswesen. Elterliches Rauchen fördert zudem den kindlichen Tabakkonsum. Dieser bedingt Nikotinmissbrauch und Krankheiten in späteren Lebensphasen. Pädiater/-innen sind wichtige Akteure in der Tabakprävention. Bei der Ausgestaltung ihrer Schlüsselposi-tion sind etablierte Beratungs-und Motivationsinstrumente hilfreich.
