Abstrakt		School medicine is reflecting changes in the modern world; with extension of schooling peraod it is becoming practically identical with adolescent medicine on the primary level. In comparison with past the morbidity has changed, too. Efforts far preservation and improvement of youth health should stimulate healthy development on one hand and prevent and solve health problems on the other. Essential are two approaches: strengthening of personal structure and prevention andlor overcoming of adverse environmental influences (primary prevention, also secundary and tertiary if needed). Modern youth health care extends beyond the scope of classical medical model and it is most effectively carried out in functional connection with the school. Several organisational models exist, but irrespective of the model the main aim is improvement of youth health (and thus, in long tem, health of the entire population) primarily by education for healthy life-style, enhancement of physical and psychalogical fitness and reduction of risk factors. All endeavours in this direction are worth of the effort as they are assuring health and quality of life of generations who will be responsible for the economical, cultural and social progress in the new millenium.
Izvleček		Tudi šolska medicina odseva spremembe sodobnega sveta; ker se obdobje šolanja podaljšuje, postaja na primarni ravni skoraj identična adolescentni medicini. V primerjavi s preteklostjo se je spremenila tudi obolevnost. Za ohranitev in izboljšanje zdravja mladine je treba po eni strani spodbujati zdrav razvoj in po drugi preprečevati in reševati zdravstvene težave. Ključni sta dve smeri: krepitev strukture osebnosti in preprečevanje oz, premagovanje neugodnih vplivov okolja (primarna, po potrebi sekundarna in terciarna preventiva). Sodobna zdravstvena zaščita mladostnika presega okvire klasičnega medicinskega modela, najučinknviteje pa jo je mogoče izvajati v funkcionalni povezanosti s šolo. Za to obstajajo različni organizacijski modeli, a ne glede na model je glavni cilj izboljšanje zdravja mladine (in s tem dolgoročno celotnega prebivalstva) predvsem z vzgajanjem za zdrav način življenja, z izboljšanjem telesne in duševne kondicije in a zmanjšanjem dejavnikov tveganja. Vsi napori v tej smeri sa vredni truda, saj gre za zagotavljanje zdravja in kakovosti življenja generacij, ki bodo v novem tisočletju prevzele odgovornost za gospadarski, kulturni in družbeni napredek.
