"Our 'World Cup Syndrome' outpatient clinic was opened simultaneously on the first day of this year's World Cup, and has received sixty or seventy patients. After Argentina's upset last night, some fan patients showed symptoms of chest tightness and shortness of breath. There are also digestive tract and cardiovascular problems, and we have opened a green channel for fans to conduct multidisciplinary consultations.” Recently, Zhang Yanzhong, the attending physician of traditional Chinese medicine at Meizhou Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine in Guangdong Province, said in an interview with the media that the attending physician of the clinic They are all members of the hospital football team, and they can better empathize with the emotions of the fans.
The reason why the "World Cup Syndrome" clinic has so many patients is that it was opened at the right time.
When some fans watch the World Cup football match, they are extremely excited, have great mood swings, and are prone to rapid rises in blood pressure.
In addition, fans generally stay up late to watch the game, and they like to eat supper and drink beer while watching the game. They are prone to symptoms or diseases such as fatigue, anxiety, insomnia, visceral dysfunction, and acute gastroenteritis.
The "World Cup Syndrome" clinic is highly targeted and can provide fans with precise diagnosis and treatment services.
This kind of outpatient clinic greatly improves the convenience of fans to see a doctor.
If there is no "World Cup Syndrome" outpatient clinic, fans would have to find a different outpatient clinic for health problems due to watching the football.
With a professional outpatient clinic for the World Cup, it is possible to provide one-stop diagnosis and treatment for fans.
Moreover, there is still a lot of room for expansion in the service content of the clinic.
For example, the current "World Cup Syndrome" outpatient clinic mainly waits for patients to come to the door, and treats them after illness. ) fans provide preventive medication guidance.
In addition, doctors can also provide fans with more timely and comprehensive health guidance and diagnosis and treatment services through Internet diagnosis and treatment, WeChat groups, live broadcast rooms, etc.
The "World Cup Syndrome" outpatient clinic is another attempt by the hospital to set up a clinic for special reasons. In the past, such attempts appeared from time to time.
For example, in the past, in terms of sports, an "Olympic clinic" was also set up.
With the adjustment of the birth policy, "two-child outpatient clinic" and "three-child outpatient clinic" also came into being.
After the introduction of the "double reduction" policy, a large number of special outpatient clinics such as "Learning Difficulty Clinic", "Growth Clinic" and "Parent Accompanying Clinic" have appeared, and have attracted wide attention from the society.
For another example, after Internet addiction was included in the scope of psychiatric diseases, some hospitals launched "Internet addiction clinics."
In addition, the "tobacco control clinic" and "weight loss clinic" launched in conjunction with tobacco control and weight loss are all additional clinics for special reasons, and they have also played a good role.
There is still a broad space for development in setting up clinics for specific events, and it must become a way for hospitals to enrich service content and improve service quality.
For example, during the epidemic, a hospital in Shanghai set up a "coronavirus department" and opened outpatient clinics accordingly.
This approach is also worth promoting.
Especially when the epidemic has lasted for several years, many people have psychological problems. It is necessary to open a special clinic for this, and so on.
Of course, the necessity and practicability should also be considered when setting up clinics for specific reasons. We should not just set up outpatient clinics in a timely manner just to catch hot spots and catch up with fashion, but ignore the practical value of outpatient clinics, resulting in waste of resources.
The "World Cup Syndrome" outpatient clinic has become popular, which is not a bad thing in itself, but other medical institutions should not simply copy this practice, because what is worth learning is not only the outpatient clinic itself, but also the service model of setting up a clinic for specific reasons.
At present, precision medicine is developing rapidly, and patients have higher and higher requirements for the accuracy and convenience of diagnosis and treatment. Diagnosis based on specific circumstances can be used as a breakthrough in precision medicine. Together with other corresponding measures, it can provide patients with more convenient and higher quality medical care. Medical services.
