Abstract:
Objective:To grasp the current situation of Keshan disease in Shaanxi Province, and to provide scientific basis for evaluation of local Keshan disease control and elimination.Methods:From May to November 2020, Keshan disease surveillance was carried out in all the diseased townships (towns) of 29 diseased counties (districts, cities) in Shaanxi Province. The diseased village was used as the unit to collect the demographic data of the diseased areas, and the village doctor's clues were used to investigate suspected myocardial cases, and recent outpatient or inpatient clinical examination data of Keshan disease cases were collected; suspected cases were organized for clinical physical examination, electrocardiography (ECG), chest X-ray and echocardiography examination. According to "Notice of the National Health Commission on Printing and Distributing the Evaluation Measures for the Control and Elimination of Key Endemic Diseases (2019 Edition)", the diseased compliance status was assessed.Results:There were 174 diseased townships (towns) and 2 653 diseased villages in the whole province, with a permanent population of 2 819 342 people. A total of 87 suspected cases and 29 confirmed cases of Keshan disease were found, including 27 cases of chronic Keshan disease and 2 cases of latent Keshan disease. The acute and subacute Keshan disease and new cases with disease duration less than 1 year were not detected. The ST-T changes, premature ventricular contractions, complete right bundle branch block, left ventricular hypertrophy, and atrial fibrillation were the most common ECG changes in 29 cases of Keshan disease, and the single ECG change accounted for 6.90% (2/29), two changes accounted for 44.83% (13/29), and three or more changes accounted for 48.28% (14/29). There were 1 case with normal cardiothoracic ratio in chest X-ray examination, 10, 13, and 4 cases with mild, moderate and severe enlargement, respectively; 13 cases with enlarged left atrium in echocardiography, 15 cases with enlarged left ventricle, and 6 cases with enlarged heart.Conclusions:All the diseased areas in Shaanxi Province have reached the national standard for elimination of Keshan disease. Keshan disease monitoring should be continued, self-management of patients with chronic Keshan disease and follow-up observation of patients with latent Keshan disease should be strengthened, and treatment programs for patients with Keshan disease should be actively carried out to improve the quality of life of the patients.
