China News Service, Beijing, September 4 (Reporter Li Yanan) In order to improve the standardized prevention and treatment of cerebrovascular diseases in counties in China, promote the improvement of the medical quality of cerebrovascular diseases in counties, increase public awareness of stroke and related diseases, and help realize "serious diseases" The goal of not leaving the county was officially launched on the 4th of the "China Cerebrovascular Disease Clinical Management County Demonstration Center Project" sponsored by the Chinese Stroke Society.
Stroke (known as "stroke") has become one of the main causes of death among Chinese residents.
According to the "China Stroke Report 2019 (English Version)" data, in 2018, the number of deaths from cerebrovascular diseases in China reached 1.57 million, accounting for 22.33% of the residents' total disease mortality, second only to malignant tumors and heart disease.
Hypertension and smoking are the main risk factors for cerebrovascular disease.
"Through screening and early intervention of high-risk populations, the incidence of stroke can be greatly reduced. However, the current society's understanding of stroke is still obviously insufficient, and there are also great differences in the level of stroke prevention and treatment by doctors at all levels. Standardized management It is imminent to comprehensively disseminate knowledge about diseases. It can be seen from the "China Stroke Report 2019" that stroke mortality is higher than that of men in men and higher in rural areas than in cities. At the same time, the incidence and prevalence of stroke among rural residents are also significantly higher. For urban residents. Therefore, doing a good job in the prevention and control of cerebrovascular diseases in the vast counties, including rural areas, is the most important part of stroke prevention and control in China.” said Wang Yongjun, director of Beijing Tiantan Hospital, Capital Medical University.
"In the course of stroke prevention and treatment, county hospitals should gradually establish stroke prevention/screening/follow-up clinics and stroke emergency green channels, develop appropriate stroke prevention and treatment technologies suitable for county hospitals, promote early recovery of stroke patients, and greatly reduce patient diseases. The burden and family social burden.” Zhao Xingquan, the Neurology Center of Beijing Tiantan Hospital, Capital Medical University, said that at present, county stroke prevention and treatment still face limited medical resources in counties, lack of effective stroke prevention and control management systems in counties, and insufficient capacity for standardized diagnosis and treatment by county doctors. In terms of challenges, to do a good job in county-level stroke prevention and control, it is necessary to establish an effective stroke prevention and control management system in these areas and improve the standardized diagnosis and treatment capabilities of county-level medical institutions.
The "China Cerebrovascular Disease Clinical Management County Demonstration Center Project" came into being under this background.
It is understood that the county demonstration center for clinical management of cerebrovascular disease in China will focus on the clinical management of ischemic cerebrovascular disease. The first batch of 50 county hospitals will be selected. Through a series of work including demonstration center construction, doctor training, public health education, etc. Standardize county-level clinical diagnosis and treatment, improve the public's awareness of diseases, and raise the goal of cerebrovascular disease management.
"In order to advance this project, we have assembled more than 30 experts across the country to formulate the county interpretation version of the "2019 China Cerebrovascular Disease Clinical Management Guidelines", and conduct doctor training through cloud classrooms and expert field interpretation, and integrate diagnosis and treatment flowcharts and guidance Combining opinions, standardizing and guiding the target hospital, and finally building a model hospital, and radiating the rest of the county hospitals to build a healthy and stable stroke prevention network." Vice President of the Chinese Stroke Society, the First Affiliated Hospital of Jinan University/No. Xu Anding, Dean of a Clinical School of Medicine and Director of the Cerebrovascular Disease Center, explained the project plan in detail. “After the completion of the model hospital, we will also rely on them to carry out a total of 1,400 people with stroke risk factors and stroke patients. Public health education and patient education activities are held to raise public awareness of risk factors such as hypertension, hyperlipidemia, and smoking, and improve the awareness and control rate of stroke."
The project is planned to be carried out from September to December 2020.
"County hospitals are the leader of the county's medical and health service system, and their development directly affects the entire grassroots medical structure. With the joint efforts of experts, county hospitals and all sectors of society, this project will surely further improve the prevention of cerebrovascular diseases in county hospitals. The level of control and treatment will promote the further improvement of our country’s medical system and guarantee people’s health in an all-round and full cycle.” Wang Yongjun said.
