Croatian medical history - a short walk through long centuries

Soon after their arrival in the 7th century Croats accepted Christianity and countinued to develop a specific culture. Inhabiting towns they slowly embraced various cultural influences and medical traditions. There were Greek colonies, such as ancient Epidaurum, on the territory that later became the Republic of Dubrovnik. Roman colonies followed them after the Illyrians had been pacified. Rudimentary surgical instruments, tombstones of midwifes or medical professionals, various articles from apotechary and medical practice were found on various places of Croatia testifying vivid medical practice. Throughout history Croatian towns were connected by Roman roads and were built with great expertise in public hygiene. In accordance with Justinian’ s Byzantine hospitals similar institutions existed in Zadar, Poreč, Rab, Split and Dubrovnik. The oldest Croatian public pharmacies were from 13th and 14th centuries. The inefficiency and failure of all anti-epidemic measures, prompted the rulers of Dubrovnik to introduce, in 1377 the first quarantine, the greatest contribution of Croats to the Medieval health culture in the world. Dubrovnik's 1395 Insurance Law is the oldest in Europe. It was only in the 12th century that the Croats joined the scientific activity in Western Europe so the first one who contributed to the world science was Herman Dalmatin. In the course of the Middle ages Croats studied and were active in numerous scientific European centers: Federic Grisogono of Zadar a physician active at the beginning of 16th century wrote a notable work in astrological medicine , and formulated a significant theory of sea tides. Famous physician from Kopar Santorio Santorio who conducted experiments in physics spent some time conducting his medical practice here, while the most outstanding physician who applied the principles of mechanics in his study of the structure and function of living beings Đuro Baglivi was of Croatian (Dubrovnik) origin as well. Medicine in the 18th century overcame the conservative and the reactionary tendencies of the beginning of the century, eagerly accepting the first results of positive sciences obtained in the transitional period at the turn of the century. On Croatian territory health was regulated by van Swieten’ s Normativum Sanitatis whose main purpose was the containment of epidemics. This period also brought the first medical books in the Croatian language. In the first half of the 19th century efforts continued to establish Croatian scientific terminology, and there was also progress in writing in Croatian. In Zadar under the French administration Lyceum was established in 1806 and given the status of a central school which included higher education curricula and had right to confer academic degrees. It also offered courses in medicine surgery and pharmacy. Croatian Academy of Sciences and Arts was established in 1866, which played enormous role in the development of natural sciences. A great change came in 1874 when Zagreb University was reopened and reorganized in modern lines. The most significant turning point in the development of Croatian medicine in the 19th century was in 1874, the year of the founding of the Croatian Medical Association, the passing of the first public health act of Croatia and Slavonia, and the founding of the University of Zagreb. The first two medical journals were launched in 1877. This was the mile stone towards the institutionalization and profesionalization of medicine which culminated in foundation of Zagreb School of medicine in 1917.
