Objective: To understand the pathogen spectrum composition of non-bacterial respiratory infections in Pinghu City, Zhejiang Province, so as to provide insights for the prevention and control of respiratory infectious diseases. Methods: A total of 592 throat or nasopharynx swab samples were collected from fever patients in Pinghu First People's Hospital from Jamuary 2021 to November 2022. Multiple real-time fluorescence quantitative polymerase chain reaction was used to detect the nucleic acids of rhinovirus (RhV), respiratory syncytial virus (RSV), parainfluenza virus (PIV), adenovirus (ADV), metapneumovirus (MPV), coronavirus (CoV), Boca virus (Boca), enterovirus (EV), influenza virus (Flu), chlamydia pneumoniae (CP) and mycoplasma pneumoniae (MP). The detection rates of pathogens and mixed infections in different age groups and seasons were analyzed. Results: A total of 212 samples were tested positive for at least one pathogen's nucleic acid from 592 samples, with a total detection rate of 35.81%. The detection rates of RhV (9.80%), PIV (7.26%), Flu (6.76%), RSV (4.39%) and CoV (3.72%) were relatively high. The detection rates were higher among patients at ages of 0 to 2 years and 3 to 17 years than among patients at ages of 18 to 59 years, and in autumn than in spring and winter (all P<0.05). Twenty-three samples were infected by mixed pathogens, accounting for 3.89%. The mixed infections were all detected two pathogens, with PIV, CoV, RhV, and ADV predominant. Conclusions From 2021 to November 2022, the main pathogens of non-bacterial respiratory infections in Pinghu City were RhV, PIV, FLu, RSV and CoV, and there were mixed infections. It is necessary to strengthen the prevention and control of respiratory infection in infants and children.

First-aid stations were divided randomly into 4 groups.Advanced airway for sudden cardiac arrest patients with laryngeal mask airway (LMA) was established in groups A and C while trachea cannula was inserted on spot of emergency medical service (EMS) or in ambulance in groups B and D.According to the results,the success rate of insertion and cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) of groups A and C were higher than the other two groups (P ＜ 0.05).However,the required time was shorter (P ＜ 0.05).Due to a difficult catheterization environment,LMA is more effective and convenient than trachea cannula in EMS.

Patient safety culture is an important aspect of ensuring patient safety in primary care institutions. The evaluation of patient safety culture helps researchers and managers to understand its essence and to develop more targeted and effective strategies for its promotion. In this article we review the current progress of the assessment tools for patient safety culture in primary care, to provide reference for their development and application in China.

Objective:To investigate the status quo of potentially inappropriate medication (PIM) among elderly hypertensive patients in community general practice clinic and related influencing factors.Methods:A total of 767 prescriptions for elderly hypertensive patients in a community health service center in Beijing from October 2020 to August 2021 were reviewed. The prevalence of PIM was assessed based on the criteria of potentially inappropriate medications for older adults in China(2017). Logistic regression analysis was employed to analyze the influencing factors for PIM. Results:The survey showed that 198 elderly patients had PIM with 244 person-doses. The top three drugs with high rate of PIM were benzodiazepine-estazolam (64 person-doses), clopidogrel (53 person-doses) and insulin (35 person-doses). Univariate analysis showed that PIM was significantly associated with types of medication;and underlying diseases hypertension with hyperlipidemia, coronary heart disease, type 2 diabetes, osteoarthritis, upper respiratory tract infection and insomnia (χ 2=82.58, 13.65, 17.74, 7.52, 10.34, 68.19,respectively,all P<0.05). Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that the types of medication, hypertension complicated with upper respiratory tract infection, and insomnia were independent influencing factors for PIM ( OR=1.55, 2.47, 9.05; P<0.05). Conclusion:The study shows that PIM is more common in elderly hypertensive patients in community general practice clinics,which is associated with types of medication, hypertension complicated with upper respiratory tract infection and insomnia. It is suggested that general practitioner working in community clinics should be aware of PIM, minimize the number of prescription drugs, and choose new drugs or non-drug treatments to reduce the occurrence of PIM.

Objective:To survey the training needs for chronic diseases among family health care workers in Beijing.Methods:A questionnaire survey on training needs for chronic disease was conducted from September to November 2018 among 820 family health care workers from 15 community health service centers in Beijing selected by stratified random sampling. The questionnaire consisted of demographic information and training needs related to chronic diseases. The training needs included: the knowledge and skills related to chronic diseases: the types of chronic diseases expected to learn, the basic knowledge of chronic diseases (7 items), preventive health care knowledge (7 items), nursing and rehabilitation skills (9 items); the duration, frequency, method, time and location of training arrangement.Results:The survey showed that chronic disease that family health care workers most wanted to learn was hypertension (90.3%, 717/794); among the basic knowledge of chronic diseases, the highest need was disease risk factor (65.5%, 520/794); among the knowledge of preventive health care, the highest need was home safety protection (87.3%, 693/794); among nursing and rehabilitation skills, the highest need was blood glucose measurement (83.1%, 660/794). The female respondents had higher training need for basic knowledge of chronic diseases than males ( Z=2.51, P=0.012). There were significant differences in the needs for preventive health care knowledge among respondents of different gender ( Z=2.72, P=0.007), occupation ( H=15.02, P=0.001) and educational level ( H=12.01, P=0.002). Respondents with different age ( H=6.49, P=0.039), occupation ( H=52.93, P<0.001) and educational level ( H=9.56, P=0.008)) had different needs for nursing and rehabilitation skills. Among the respondents, 58.2% (462/794) indicated that duration of each course should be 30-59 min, 34.0% (270/794) wanted to participate in the training once a month, 53.1% (422/794) wanted to participate in the training in the form of large class, 39.2% (311/794) were willing to participate in the training on working days and 48.7% (387/794) wanted to be trained in community health service institutions. Conclusions:There are diverse training needs of family health care workers. Attention should be paid to the implementation of need-oriented training. It is crucial to promote the motivation of family health care workers to participate in the training, which can improve the training effect and facilitate their role in family health management.

Objective:To survey the continuing medical education training needs for village doctors in Beijing suburbs.Methods:A qualitative study on the continuing medical education training needs for village doctors was conducted in Beijing Huairou district from March to July 2021. Six township hospital managers, 19 village doctors, 15 village cadres and 30 villagers from 15 villages of 3 townships in the district selected by purposive sampling method attended the face-to-face, individual, in-depth interviews. A semi-structured interview outline was developed based on literature review and expert consultation. The content of the interviews was analyzed by the thematic framework method.Results:Among 19 rural doctors, 11 preferred the full-time training, while 8 were unable to participate in the full-time training. Most of township hospital managers and village doctors thought the ideal form of training was "classroom knowledge teaching teaching" (5/6, 16/19)and "outpatient clerkship"(6/6, 13/19). The training contents for village doctors were basic medical knowledge and skills, including diagnosis and treatment of common diseases, identification of common symptoms and management of chronic diseases; the appropriate techniques of traditional Chinese medicine including acupuncture, moxibustion, cupping and scraping; and public health including epidemic prevention and control, infectious disease detection and reporting.Conclusion:For improving the applicability and practicality of training for village doctors, it is necessary to apply rational training methods and forms, and develop targeted training program and contents based on training needs.

Objective:To survey the health literacy and related factors of family caregivers of patients with chronic diseases in Beijing.Methods:A survey was conducted from September to November 2018, among 1 350 family caregivers of patients with chronic diseases selected by stratified random sampling from 6 districts of Beijing. A self-filling questionnaire was used for the survey, which consisted of the basic information and health literacy of family caregivers. Health literacy included three parts: daily living habits, basic knowledge (knowledge of prevention and management of behavioral risk factors, knowledge related to chronic diseases and knowledge related to first aid) and chronic disease-related skills.Results:A total of 1 268 valid questionnaires were collected with a recovery rate of questionnaires was 93.9%. The median age of 1 268 family caregivers was 62 years (23-86) and 75.7% (960/1 268) were females. In terms of daily habits, smokers and drinkers accounted for 11.3% (143/1 268) and 21.5% (272/1 268) respectively; 82.7% (1 049/1 268) caregivers exercised regularly accounted, of whom 72.5% (761/1 049) exercised at least 4 times a week; 28.9% (366/1 268) caregivers had habit of light diet. In terms of basic knowledge of health literacy, 12.9% (163/1 268) of family caregivers mastered the basic knowledge (≥80% total score); family caregivers who were able to measure blood pressure, blood sugar, pulse, coping with hypoglycemia, cardiopulmonary resuscitation and dialing the emergency number correctly accounted for 27.4% (347/1 268), 18.1% (230/1 268), 15.1% (191/1 268), 15.7% (199/1 268), 6.0% (76/1 268) and 33.8% (429/1 268), respectively. For the six chronic disease-related skills, 23.7% (301/1 268) were able to call emergency number correctly and only 2.6% (33/1 268) were able to perform CPR. There were significant differences in the knowledge of behavioral risk factors ( χ 2=3.88, P=0.017), chronic disease related knowledge ( χ2=7.40, P=0.025), first-aid related knowledge ( χ2=12.04, P=0.002) and overall basic knowledge ( χ2=13.56, P=0.001) among family caregivers with different educational levels. There were significant differences in the knowledge of chronic diseases among family caregivers in different occupations ( χ2=8.78, P=0.012). Conclusion:The health literacy level of family caregivers of patients with chronic diseases in Beijing needs to be further improved, and there are differences in the health literacy of family caregivers with different educational qualifications and occupations.

Objective: To analyze the prevalence of severe fever with thrombocytopenia syndrome virus(SFTSV)infection in Zhoushan island of Zhejiang province and the duration of serum positive IgG antibody in patients infected with SFTSV. Methods: One thousand one hundred and twenty-two healthy people from Zhoushan island of Zhejiang province were recruited for cross-sectional study in August 2019, including 641 from non-epidemic areas and 481 from epidemic areas. The serum SFTSV-IgG antibody was detected by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA), and the positive rates of SFTSV-IgG antibody were compared between people from the epidemic areas and non epidemic areas. Meanwhile, the antibody titer of SFTSV-IgG in 19 patients confirmed between July 2011 and June 2018 was detected by indirect ELISA. SPSS 17.0 software was used to analyze data. Results: The positive rate of SFTSV-IgG antibody was 1.5% (7/481) in the epidemic area, which was higher than that in the non-epidemic area (0/641) (χ²=7.187, P<0.01). The positive rates of SFTSV-IgG antibody in 2019 were lower than those in the epidemic area (11.7%) and non-epidemic area (2.5%) in 2013 (χ²=22.556 and 10.352, both P<0.01). The serum SFTSV-IgG antibody of 18 patients with previous infection was still positive, and the longest one lasted for 8 years. Conclusions There is a SFTSV latent infection in population from epidemic area of Zhoushan island. The SFTSV-IgG antibody can last for a long time in patients with SFTS and it may have certain protective effect.
