Abstract:
Objective:To understand the missing report rate and reporting status of infectious diseases in private medical institutions and discuss the defects involved, so as to provide a scientific basis for further standardizing the management of infectious disease reporting.Methods:By virtue of onsite data collection and face-to-face interview of 16 private hospitals in Chaoyang district of Beijing from January to May 2019, which were equipped with direct network report system, qualitative and quantitative data of their current infectious disease reporting were collected. Ratio or constituent ratio indicators was used to describe sample characteristics and survey indicators, while the ratio or constituent ratio were compared via χ2 test. Results:The missing report rate of these hospitals was 11.73%. Top three infectious diseases neglected were acute hemorrhagic conjunctivitis(100.00%), genital herpes(100.00%)and viral hepatitis(96.36%). The missing report rate of inpatients was higher than that of outpatients, and that of chronic infectious diseases was higher than that of acute infectious diseases. These hospitals were found with such defects as insufficient training of infectious disease diagnosis, and poor self-inspecting regulations and poor management actions.Conclusions:The missing reports rate of infectious diseases was high among private hospitals in Chaoyang district, especially that of chronic infectious diseases. It is necessary to strengthen infectious disease diagnosis training, and further standardize the infectious disease reporting process in hospitals using the electronic information systems, so as to reduce underreporting and consolidate infectious disease prevention and control in hospitals.
