Objective:To investigate the current status of chronic respiratory disease (chronic obstructive pulmary disease, bronchial asthma and obstructive sleep apnea) management capacity in community health centers in Beijing Miyun district.Methods:From November 21 to 22,2018,nineteen community health centers and 65 general practitioners in Miyun district of Beijing were selected to participate in a questionnaire survey. The self-designed questionnaire was divided into two parts: the questionnaire for medical institutions(institution questionnaire)and questionnaire for general practitioners(doctor questionnaire). The institution questionnaires were distributed by the Miyun District Health Commission,and filled in by the person in charge of the institution; the knowledge questionnaires were sent to all general practitioners of 4 community health service centers. The two independent sample t test was used to compare the measurement data in accordance with normal distribution between the two groups, and analysis of variance was used for multi group comparison. Results:Nineteen institution questionnaires were sent to all centers in the district and all 19 valid questionnaires were recovered. Among them, 18 centers thought that chronic respiratory diseases should be included in the management of chronic non-communicable diseases, and health records should be established to achieve regular follow-up monitoring, but only one center had put asthma in the record. Nine centers purchased pulmonary function instrument; 8 centers were equipped with inhaled glucocorticoid, and 1 center was equipped with β 2-receptor agonists. The effective recovery rate of knowledge questionnaire was 100.0% (65/65). There was no significant difference in the knowledge scores of three kinds of chronic respiratory diseases (chronic obstructive pulmary disease, bronchial asthma, obstructive sleep apnea) among general practitioners [(63±19), (64±23), (62±21), F=0.087, P>0.05]. The scores of general practitioners with different ages and professional titles were (57±15), (66±13), (42±16) and (54±19), (67±12), (68±11) respectively. There were significant differences in the knowledge scores of general practitioners with different ages and professional titles ( F= 8.582 and 6.079, all P<0.05). The average scores of general practitioners with age>50 years or junior professional title were lower than others. Conclusions:The leaders of each center in Miyun district have a clear understanding of the necessity of diagnosis and treatment of chronic respiratory diseases, but there are still some problems, such as insufficient attention to chronic respiratory system, insufficient investment in disease management infrastructure, and lack of professional knowledge of chronic respiratory diseases among general practitioners. It is hoped that in the future, chronic respiratory diseases can be introduced into public health service projects, investment in related disease infrastructure will be strengthened, and comprehensive respiratory knowledge and ability training courses suitable for grass-roots general practitioners can be popularized as soon as possible.

As a powerful reserve force for primary care institutions, general practitioners (GPs) undergoing standardized training will be essential to solve the pediatric problems of first visit to primary medical institutions and coordinated care delivery system in the future, which puts forward new require-ments for the training of post competencies of GPs.However,the training and evaluating systems for GPs in Pediatric Department still need further exploration. This article tried to summarize the two-month rotating arrangement and its advantages for GPs in Pediatric Department of a general hospital.Based on the forgotten theoretical knowledge,superficial understanding of the diseases and individual teachers' poor teaching moti-vation, this article suggested reinforcing the theoretical basis of GPs through exploring multiple learning channels and increasing self-learning enthusiasm,strengthening the training and rewarding system of teachers to promote the specialist-GPs teaching, as well as promoting the set-up of Department of General Practice and taking the advantage of key disciplines in teaching hospitals to develop characteristic teaching model of general practice.

Objective:To investigate the status quo of nursing capacity for chronic respiratory disease in community health service centers.Methods:A questionnaire survey on nursing capacity for chronic respiratory disease was conducted in November 2018 among nurses working in internal medicine, general practice and chronic disease management departments of 4 community health service centers in Beijing Miyun District. The questionnaire included the knowledge and work content of chronic respiratory diseases. At the same time semi-structured interviews was conducted on the role of nurses in the management of chronic respiratory diseases among nurses selected by purposive sampling method.Results:In the study 63 valid questionnaires were collected and 14 nurses were interviewed. The results showed that the total score of nurses′ knowledge about chronic respiratory diseases was (62.0±14.4), and the scores of knowledge of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), bronchial asthma and obstructive sleep apnea were (55.5±19.3), (61.0±21.6), (69.5±25.1), respectively. The total knowledge score of nurses with middle-rank professional title or above was higher than that of those with primary title [(67.0±12.9) vs. (54.0±13.6), t=-3.07, P<0.01]. The work contents mainly involved were nursing procedures(22/63,34.9%), health education(18/63,28.6%) and nursing evaluation(8/63,12.7%).Three themes were extracted from the deep interviews: the main work contents for nurses should be nursing procedures, nurses should participate in the chronic respiratory disease management as a member of the integrated medical team; nurses expected practice-oriented trainings of chronic respiratory disease management. Conclusions:The knowledge of chronic respiratory diseases among nurses in community health center needs to be improved, and the nursing skills special for respiratory diseases are needed. It is suggested to develop training courses and nursing guidelines suitable for community health centers and for nurses to participate in chronic respiratory disease management as team members, so that nurses in primary care institutions can play a better role in the management of chronic respiratory diseases.

Objective:To investigate the status quo and related issues of reception of pediatric patients by general practitioners in community health centers in Longhua District of Shenzhen through qualitative and quantitative studies.Methods:In qualitative study, 10 general practitioners (GPs) from community health centers in Longhua District of Shenzhen were selected by the purpose sampling method for personal in-depth interviews. The interview contents were recorded and transcribed, then coded by Nvivo software. Theme frame analysis method was used for data sorting and theme extraction. Based on the results of qualitative interviews, the questionnaire was developed and distributed through the electronic questionnaire platform. The contents of the questionnaire included general information, the situation of pediatric patient reception in community health centers, the willingness and ability of GPs to receive children, the existing problems and the measures to promote receiving pediatric patients in community health centers.Results:The results of personal in-depth interviews with 10 GPs showed that the obtained information reached saturation. Through repeated reading, induction and analysis of the interview data, four themes were extracted: ① GPs in community health centers received a large number of pediatric outpatients with common diseases; ② GPs in community health centers are willing to receive child patients, but they were lack of ability; ③ there were many problems of pediatric patients reception in community health centers; ④ training and incentive policies would help to promote child patient reception in community health centers. A total of 223 electronic questionnaires were collected, 219 of which were valid for analysis. All the community health centers in Longhua District received pediatric patients, the number accounted for 20%-60% of the total outpatients; 84.5%(185/219)of the responders were willing to receive child patients, 65.8% (144/219)of them assumed that the consulting ability was average. The main problems for GPs to receive pediatric patients were "insufficient training" (76.7%,168/219) and "lack of consulting ability" (55.3%,121/219). The important measures to promote GPs to receive child patients were to improve their own clinical competence (94.1%,206/219), to have clinical faculty with pediatric background mentoring at the community health center (74.9%,164/219), to improve the supporting facilities (42.9%,94/219) and continuous professional support (38.8%,85/219).Conclusion:The status quo of pediatric patient reception in the community of Shenzhen Longhua District is generally satisfactory. The main problems in this aspect are insufficient training for general practitioners and lack of clinical competence, which should be strengthened and improved in the future.

Objective:To investigate the past continuing medical education (CME) in pediatrics for general practitioners in community health centers in Longhua District, Shenzhen, so as to explore the willingness, needs and suggestions of general practitioners for CME in pediatrics.Methods:A mixed methods research were used in this study. Firstly, the purpose sampling method was used to select general practitioners in community health centers in Longhua District, Shenzhen for personal in-depth interviews. The interview contents were recorded and transcribed. The interview contents were coded by NVivo software. Theme frame analysis method was used for data sorting and theme extraction. Based on the results of qualitative interviews, the questionnaire was developed and distributed through the electronic questionnaire platform, and relevant questionnaire data were analyzed by Excel.Results:The results of qualitative research showed that after personal in-depth interviews with 10 general practitioners, the information reached saturation. Through repeated reading, induction and analysis of the interview data, four themes were extracted: ① previous pediatric training opportunities and satisfaction; ② willingness to participate in pediatric training; ③ the demand of training content, form and duration; ④ measures to encourage participation in training. In terms of quantitative research results, a total of 223 electronic questionnaires were collected, among which there were 219 valid questionnaires. Besides, 150 (68.5%) general practitioners said that they had no or only a few training opportunities in pediatrics CME in the past. There were some problems in the past CME training, such as unsystematic training (39 practitioners, 66.1%), narrow course coverage (30 practitioners, 50.8%), the content divorced from clinical practice (29 practitioners, 49.2%), monotonous teaching method (27 practitioners, 45.8%), etc. And 210 (95.9%) general practitioners were willing to participate in pediatric training, and 161 (73.5%) hoped that the form of training would be a combination of online and offline. In terms of pediatrics specialty content training needs, the general practitioners had higher demand for respiratory (188 practitioners, 85.8%), digestive (160 practitioners, 73.1%), infectious (145 practitioners, 66.2%) and dermatology (136 practitioners, 62.1%) specialty.Conclusion:There are still some problems in pediatrics CME, such as few training opportunities, unsystematic training, etc. In the future, we need to formulate systematic training plans and incentive measures according to the needs of general practitioners, to strengthen the pediatric professional training for general practitioners and improve their ability to receive children, in order to promote the implementation of hierarchical medical system for children.
