  Lu Chen analyzed that in the process of medical treatment, in addition to drawing on the valuable experience of previous treatment, the following measures were also taken:

  One is to establish a good treatment system. After the outbreak of the epidemic, the State Council’s joint prevention and control mechanism immediately sent a number of experts with first-class domestic standards, participated in the actual combat against the epidemic in Hubei and other places, and have rich experience to Urumqi to guide the rescue work. Experts in medical, nursing, clinical, psychological, laboratory, imaging, etc. form a joint expert group to establish an expert evaluation system and consultation system in the treatment process, continuously optimize treatment plans and improve treatment quality.

  The second is to strengthen the protection of medical treatment. Xinjiang adheres to the principle of "Four Concentrations" and establishes designated hospitals for the treatment of new coronary pneumonia in Xinjiang, and recruits outstanding medical personnel from medical institutions directly under the autonomous region and Urumqi City, including medical teams that have supported Hubei and medical personnel who participated in foreign aid medical work. In the treatment of the new coronary pneumonia, dozens (sets) of advanced medical equipment including ECMO, ventilators, and CRRT machines have been mobilized. From personnel technology to medical supplies, they have provided important guarantees for the treatment and ensured a smooth and effective treatment process. Order, scientific and efficient.

  The third is to adhere to homogenization and standardized treatment. Strictly follow the requirements of the "New Coronavirus Pneumonia Diagnosis and Treatment Plan (Trial Seventh Edition)", implement effective treatment measures in detail, adhere to multidisciplinary collaborative treatment under the guidance of the expert group, strengthen both Chinese and Western medicine, and improve Chinese and Western medicine The joint consultation system gives full play to the positive role of traditional Chinese medicine in the treatment. The participation rate of traditional Chinese medicine in the treatment of new coronary pneumonia in Xinjiang in the early stage is about 93%. The participation rate of traditional Chinese medicine in this epidemic has reached 100%. , Severe clinical symptoms have achieved good results. At the same time, attention is paid to the prevention of complications related to new coronary pneumonia, and the patient's experience of seeking medical treatment is obvious. The high degree of cooperation between doctors and patients is also a strong support for improving treatment efficiency.

  The fourth is to resolutely implement the "four early" principle. The epidemic is characterized by the majority of patients with mild illness and asymptomatic infection, and the median age of onset is relatively low. According to the previous simultaneous treatment of severe and severe illnesses and the principle of "four early", we will try our best to treat severe and critical illnesses while paying attention to asymptomatic. In the treatment of infected persons, the focus is on early intervention and early treatment of mild patients, which effectively improves the cure rate and shortens the treatment cycle.

  Lu Chen said that the recovery period of no less than 14 days will continue for confirmed patients who are cured and discharged from hospital and asymptomatic patients who have been released from medical observation. The designated hospitals for the treatment of new coronary pneumonia in Xinjiang will promptly push patient discharge information to the neighborhood committees and relevant medical and health institutions in the patient's jurisdiction or place of residence to establish contacts and share medical records. Due to the low immune function of the body during the recovery period of new coronary pneumonia and the risk of infection with other pathogens, it is recommended to continue self-health monitoring for no less than 14 days after the completion of the recovery period, and follow-up and follow-up visits as required. In the past, patients who have had basic diseases such as cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases, diabetes, and kidney diseases need to be treated during the rehabilitation period while taking into account the treatment of the underlying diseases.

  From 0:00 on July 15 to 24:00 on August 3, a total of 42 confirmed cases were cured and discharged from hospital in Xinjiang, and 37 cases of asymptomatic infection were released from medical observation. (Finish)
