Although there have been lots of developments in the field of science, the information is still transferred from past through the future by authentication. Medical sciences can never be excepted.
The History of Medicine began simultaneously with the recording of medical records. It should be noted that the medical records are as valuabel for the patients as drugs and treatments are.
Recording the results of his/her studies, a physician can not only show his/her scientific efforts, but can develop the history of medicine as well.
The studies show that, in the field of medicine, whenever the medical authentication has been done precisely and the physicians paid close attention to this factor, the history of medicine is much more glorious. It is somewhat impossible to study the life of those physicians who had studied in this subject, unless they have left behind some records in his respect.
The authors here try to reveal how important the authentication in form of medical records is, and how medical records have accounted for continuation of the history of medicine.Keywords: Medical Records, History of Medicine, Twenteeth centuryTurkiye Klinikleri J Med Ethics 2005, 13:199-202
