Foreword Foreword The oldest existing therapeutic systems used by humanity for health and well- being are called Traditional Medicine or Complementary and Alternative Medicine(TM/CAM) Increasingly, TM/CAM is being formally Ms can hel existing health-care systems. When practised correctly, TM/CAN protect and im citizens health and well-being. The appropriate use of TM/CAM therapies and products, however, requires consideration of issues of safety, efficacy and quality. This is the basis of consumer protection and is no different, in principle, from what underpins modern medical practice. Upholding basic requirements for the modern practice of TM/CAM therapies can support national health authorities in the establishment of adequate laws, rules, and licensing practices These considerations have guided the work of the Regional Government of Lombardy in TM/CAM which was first included in the Regional Health Plan 2002-2004. Clinical and observational studies in the region of Lombardy have provided a crucial step in the evaluation of TM/CAM. With the help of data from these studies, a series of governmental provisions have been used to create a framework for the protection of consumers and providers. The cornerstone of this process was the first Memorandum of Understanding (Mou) for the Quadrennial Cooperation Plan which was signed between the Regional Government of Lombardy and the World Health Organization. The MO highlighted the need for certain criteria to be met including: the rational use of TM/CAM by consumers; good practice; quality; safety and the promotion of clinical and observational studies of TM/CAM. When they were published in 2004, the Who guidelines for developing consumer information on proper use of traditional, complementary and alternative medicine were incorporated into this first MOU In the region of Lombardy, citizens currently play an active role in their health care choices. The awareness of the advantages as well as of the risks of every type of care is therefore critical, also when a citizen actively chooses to use TM/CAM Consumers have begun to raise new questions related to the safe and effective treatment by all providers of TM/CAM. For this reason, the Regional Government of Lombardy closely follows WHo guidelines on qualified practice of TM/CAM in order to guarantee appropriate use through the creation of laws and regulations on skills, quality control, and safety and efficacy of products, and clear guidelines about practitioner qualifications. The Regional Government of Lombardy has also provided support and cooperated with WHO in developing series of benchmark documents for selected popularly used TM/CAM therapies including Ayurveda, naturopathy, Nuad Thai, osteopathy, traditional Chinese medicine, Tuina, and Unani medicine Modern scientific practice requires a product or a therapeutic technique to be safe and effective, meaning that it has specific indications and evidence for care supported by appropriate research.

Foreword vii Foreword The oldest existing therapeutic systems used by humanity for health and wellbeing are called Traditional Medicine or Complementary and Alternative Medicine (TM/CAM). Increasingly, TM/CAM is being formally used within existing health-care systems. When practised correctly, TM/CAM can help protect and improve citizens’ health and well-being. The appropriate use of TM/CAM therapies and products, however, requires consideration of issues of safety, efficacy and quality. This is the basis of consumer protection and is no different, in principle, from what underpins modern medical practice.

Pref Preface There has been a dramatic surge in popularity of the various disciplines collectively known as traditional medicine(TM) over the past thirty years. For example, 75% of the population in Mali and 70% in Myanmar depend on TM and TM practitioners for primary care, while use has also greatly increased in many developed countries where it is considered a part of complementary and alternative medicine(CAM). For instance, 70% of the population in Canada and 80% in Germany have used, in their lifetime, traditional medicine under the title complementary and alternative medicine Integration of traditional medicine into national health systems Traditional medicine has strong historical and cultural roots. Particularly in developing countries, traditional healers or practitioners would often be well known and respected in the local community. However, more recently, the increasing use of traditional medicines combined with increased international mobility means that the practice of traditional medicines therapies and treatments is, in many cases, no longer limited to the countries of origin. This can make it difficult to identify qualified practitioners of traditional medicine in some One of the four main objectives of the WHO traditional medicine strategy 2002 2005 was to support countries to integrate traditional medicine into their own health systems. In 2003, a WHO resolution( WHA56.31)on traditional medicine urged Member States, where appropriate, to formulate and implement national policies and regulations on traditional and complementary and alternative medicine to support their proper use. Further, Member States were urged to integrate TM/CAM into their national health-care systems, depending on their relevant national situations Later in 2003, the results of a global survey on policies for TM/CAM conducted y WHO showed that the implementation of the strategy is making headway For example, the number of Member States reporting that they have a national policy on traditional medicine rose from five in 1990, to 39 in 2003, and to 48 in 2007. Member States with regulations on herbal medicines rose from 14 in 1986 to 80 in 2003 and to 110 in 2007.

Preface ix Preface There has been a dramatic surge in popularity of the various disciplines collectively known as traditional medicine (TM) over the past thirty years.
