摘要
晚清中国医学统计活动基本经历了3个阶段。最初是传教士医生的个人行为。早在16世纪，西方国家即开始注意收集有关中国的相关资料，包含医疗和公共健康信息。1840年鸦片战争之后，随着来华传教士增多，从事医学信息收集与统计的医生也渐次增多，但比较零散。自19世纪60年代起，西方列强窃取了满清政府的海关控制权，在其主导下，中国的医学统计开始了制度化的过程，内容、方法、时间等都有了明显的改进；进入20世纪之后，卫生的现代性成为衡量国家是否具备自主管理资格的标尺，医学统计成为清政府的需求，从而建立了相应的卫生管理机构。在这一过程中，依据参与主体的不同，进行的目的也会有所差异，但从影响上来看，医学统计活动促进了西方医学在中国的传播与发展，并有利于医学科学研究以及中国现代卫生建制的完善。
Chinese medical statistics basically went through three stages in the Late Qing Dynasty. The early stage was individual behavior of missionary doctors. In the early 16^th century, western countries began to collect materials about medicine and public health in China. After the Opium War in 1840, more missionaries came to China and more doctors engaged in medical information collection and statistics. In 1860s, the western countries stole the customs power control from the Qing＇ s government and the systemati-zation process of statistics began. The process, content, method and time of statistics were improved. In the 20th century,modernity of medicine became the scale for a country＇ s self - management qualification. Statis-tics was needed by the Qing government and relevant medical administration was established. During this process, they carried out this activity with different purposes according to the different participants. But from the point of influence, medical statistics promoted the spread and development of western medicine in Chi-na. They were also helpful to the perfection of medical research and public health system in China.
