Objective To find out the epidemic characteristics of brucellosis in Harbin and provide scientific evidences for development of countermeasures.Methods The brucellosis surveillance data were collected from the "National Diseases Surveillance Information Management System" and the municipal surveillance results from 2013 to 2017 in Harbin;the place,time and population distribution characteristics of brucellosis were analyzed by descriptive epidemiological methods.Results A total of 2 909 cases of brucellosis were reported in Harbin from 2013 to 2017,and the incidence of brucellosis declined from 5.98 per 100 000 to 4.53 per 100 000,the epidemic situation was mainly sporadic,and an outbreak caused by a live Brucella vaccine (A19 strain) was reported in 2017;all eighteen districts (counties or cities) in Harbin had reported epidemic in the past five years,Shuangcheng,Yilan,Binxian and Bayan had a large number of cases,accounted for 53.76% (1 564/2 909) of the total number of patients in Harbin;the time of onset focused on March to July,which accounted for 57.17% (1 663/2 909) of annual incidence;age distribution,mainly young adults aged 30 to 59,accounted for 72.57% (2 111/2 909);gender distribution predominandy male,accounted for 75.42% (2 194/2 909);and occupational distribution predominantly farmers,accounted for 86.28% (2 510/2 909).In the municipal surveillance stations from 2013 to 2017,7 005 cases were surveyed,of which 2 141 cases received serological test,the positive rate was 3.32% (71/2 141),except 2016,the serum positive rate was decreasing year by year (x2 =13.927,P < 0.05),and the monitoring results of municipal monitoring stations can better reflect the epidemic trend.Conclusions The incidence of brucellosis in Harbin is decreasing year by year.However,the outbreak caused by the new vaccines should be given high attention and we should strengthen prevention and control of the disease.

Objective To investigate the peripherally inserted central catheter (PICC) to improve the accuracy of three valve PICC head end position of the fortune with endocardial mapping method.Methods 204 patients with PICC were randomly divided into observation group and control group according to the digital table,102 cases in each group.The observation group used saline infusion method by three valve PICC guided endocardial mapping catheter tip location.The control group received conventional positioning surface positioning method.The accurate rate of end position of the two groups was compared.Results The head position accuracy of the observation group was significantly higher than that of the control group (100.00% vs.93.14%,x2 =3.003,P =0.004).Conclusion The use of saline drip instillation to guide intracardiac electrogram during PICC catheter placement can reduce ectopia and improve the accuracy of the head end position of the catheter,and it is worthy of promotion.
