We established the rapid response system for non-hospitalized patients from 2012 in order to improve the effectiveness of emergent critical care for non-hospitalized patients when emergency happened.From January 2013 to December 2016,there were 122 cases with RRS activation for non-hospitalized patients.The time to arrive was 3.16±0.41 min,and 107 cases(86.89％)were sent to the emergency department.Fifteen patients(14.02％)were classified as level 1,26(24.03％)as level Ⅱ,48(16.82％)as level Ⅲ,and 18(16.82％) as level ⅣV,and 83％ were critical patients.Rapid response system is important to cope with emergency in non-hospitalized patients.

OBJECTIVETo investigate the epidemiological characteristics of measles cases of new genotype D8 in Beijing from January to June, 2013.

METHODSEpidemiological survey and descriptive analysis was conducted.

RESULTS661 suspected measles were reported from January to June, 2013. 416 were confirmed measles cases by serology and etiology detection. 28 measles cases were caused by genotype D8 measles virus by genotype identification. There were 2 measles outbreak including 14 cases and 14 sporadic cases. The incidence peak was during April and May. 25 cases (89.3%, 25/28) occurred in downtown and suburban districts. 22 cases (78.5%, 22/28) were adults aged 15-39 years and 19 cases (67.9%, 19/28) were migrant population. 12 cases (85.7%, 12/14) in outbreak were migrant population working in clothing sales. There was epidemiological association between 2 outbreaks.

CONCLUSIONMeasles cases of genotype D8 were found for the first time in Beijing. Genotype D8 virus mainly infected migrant adults and caused local outbreak and endemic.
