China News Service, Shanghai, March 19 (Reporter Chen Jing) At the press conference on the prevention and control of the new coronary pneumonia epidemic in Shanghai held on the 19th, Wu Jinglei, director of the Shanghai Municipal Health Commission, said that in this round of epidemics, Shanghai has discovered For more confirmed cases and asymptomatic infections, the commission has further improved the Shanghai Public Health Clinical Center's admission and treatment capacity by mobilizing the city-level hospital treatment team and adding medical facilities and equipment.
At the same time, Shanghai has launched an emergency plan to standardize the selected medical institutions in accordance with the designated hospital setting requirements, standardize the process, meet the relevant requirements for the treatment of infectious diseases, and start the admission of patients.
A few days ago, Shanghai began to investigate the key areas of the city and adopted the measures of "nucleic acid screening + flow reduction".
Relevant personnel have defined some key areas according to the epidemiological characteristics of the past period.
Wu Fan, member of the expert group of the Shanghai Epidemic Prevention and Control Leading Group and vice president of Shanghai Medical College of Fudan University, said frankly that a relatively large number of positive infected persons were indeed found in the screening, and they may be confirmed cases after follow-up review; during the screening, Many asymptomatic infections were also found in Shanghai.
From the perspective of prevention and control, asymptomatic infections are contagious, and they still need to be screened and controlled, and the close contacts and second-close contacts of asymptomatic infections and risk groups must be controlled.
It is reported that on the 18th, Shanghai added 8 local confirmed cases of new coronary pneumonia (mild) and 366 local asymptomatic infections.
Of the 8 confirmed cases, 4 were found in centralized isolation and control, and 4 were found in nucleic acid screening of relevant risk groups.
Among the 366 asymptomatic infections, 178 cases were found in centralized isolation control, and 188 cases were found in the screening of relevant risk groups. All of them have been closed-loop transferred to designated medical institutions for isolation treatment or isolation medical observation. The current situation is stable.
Wu Jinglei introduced that the treatment of people infected with the new coronavirus in Shanghai strictly follows the principles of "four mornings" and "four concentrations". Patients are admitted to designated hospitals in a centralized manner. Western medicine pays equal attention to comprehensive treatment, strives to achieve "one person, one policy", and goes all out to do a good job in medical treatment.
He said that in the whole process of medical treatment, Shanghai, in line with the general idea of "preparing instead of using it, and not preparing it when it is unavailable", especially emphasized the reserve of backup medical resources, and made targeted plans in advance.
It is reported that in terms of hardware resources, Shanghai has done a good job of expanding the beds in designated hospitals in the early stage of the epidemic, and can dynamically adjust the bed resources in the hospital according to the speed of case admission.
At the same time, Shanghai has set up a batch of back-up designated hospitals (districts) and a batch of reserve treatment beds, which are dispatched uniformly throughout the city.
In the rescue team, Shanghai has selected professional medical staff as a reserve team, which can support designated hospitals at any time.
A city-level hospital intensive care team has been set up. Once severe or critical cases appear, they will be stationed in designated hospitals immediately, and will focus on treating critically ill patients in the form of "grouping a group to do the job".
