ABSTRACT
Objective:To investigate the mental health status and its influencing factors in people under COVID-19 quarantine.Methods:A total of 130 people under quarantine in a centralized isolation site in Beijing from October 21 2021 to November 12 2021 were included in the study. The demographic data were collected, and the self-rating anxiety scale (SAS) and self-rating depression scale (SDS) were used for evaluation of mental health status.Results:One hundred and eleven people completed the survey; there were 10 people with anxiety (9.0%) and 34 people with depression (30.6%) among the study subjects. Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that the number of physical diseases ≥2 was the independent risk factor for anxiety ( OR=119.76,95% CI: 5.31-2 702.08, P=0.003) and depression ( OR=41.41,95% CI:6.06- 282.75, P<0.001). Conclusions:The incidence of psychological problems among people under COVID-19 quarantine is relatively high, particularly for people with multiple physical diseases, it is necessary to carry out early intervention for vulnerable people in centralized isolation sites.
ABSTRACT
Objective:To evaluate the effectiveness of mentorship-Leichester assessment package (LAP) model in general practice teaching.Methods:Sixty five-year Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) students undergoing general medicine internship from July 2020 to December 2020 were divided into study group and control group with 30 students in each group. Students in study group undertook general practice internship in Fangzhuang Community Health Service Center with the mentorship-LAP model, including group-based teaching, weekly LAP case discussion and mentor-intern individualized LAP clinical practice teaching; students in control group undertook general practice internship in other community teaching bases with the traditional clinical practice training methods. After one month, students were evaluated with LAP score sheet and the evaluation results were compared between two groups.Results:After one month of training, the scores of medical history collection, physical examination, problem solving, patient management, doctor-patient relationship, expected care and medical records in both groups increased compared with pre-training (the control group: t=4.23, 5.06, 8.94, 4.85, 3.99, 1.04, 5.13, study group: t=1.86, 2.85, 12.42, 13.61, 6.29, 4.83, 5.63, all P<0.05). The scores of medical history collection, physical examination, problem solving, patient management, doctor-patient relationship, and expected care after training in the study group were higher than those in the control group ( t=5.66, 2.83, 5.67, 8.13, 2.76, 2.52, all P<0.05). After the training, in the medical history collection items, the scores of patient-centered communication, RICE recognition, and physical-psychological-social factors in study group were higher than those in the control group ( t=5.66, 7.35 and 2.66, all P<0.05); in the problem-solving items, the scores of clinical data application, comprehensive analysis ability and personal ability limitation in study group were higher than those in the control group ( t=4.32, 3.38 and 2.26, all P<0.05); in the patient management items, the scores of overall management plans, doctor-patient collaboration, dispelling doubts, subsequent visits/follow-up, and the degree of patient understanding the management plan in the study group were higher than those in the control group ( t=3.03, 2.07, 2.43, 3.15 and 2.17, all P<0.05). Conclusion:The mentorship-LAP teaching model is helpful to improve the effectiveness of general practice internship for medicine students.
ABSTRACT
Objective:To evaluate an intelligent voice call system in popularizing knowledge of prevention and control of Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) for chronic disease patients in the community.Methods:An intelligent voice call system for popularization of scientific knowledge of COVID-19 and protective measures was developed in Fangzhuang Community Health Service Center of Beijing Fengtai district, in which 12 popular education modules ware designed and 3-6 core points were extracted from each module. During January 23 to January 29, 2020, the system was applied to send voice calls and text messages to all contracted chronic disease patients in Fangzhuang community with popular science education in different time points. Using equidistant sampling method, 400 participants were selected from the patients of successful voice outbound calls. The intelligent voice outbound system was used to investigate the participants′ COVID-19 knowledge levels, the main sources of knowledge and satisfaction with education. The outbound results of the above indicators were queried from the database of the intelligent voice outbound system.Results:A total of 98 487 voice outbound calls were effectively connected, the average call duration per person was 2.24 minutes, and the total call duration was equivalent to 488.5 workdays. A total of 141 201 messages were sent, with a read rate of 97.8% (141 201/144 405) . After the voice outbound education, the participants′ scores in answering the questionnaire on 12 popular science knowledge modules ware all significantly increased compared to those before the education ( t=22.4, 27.5, 24.3, 31.2, 25.6, 18.9, 22.5, 27.3, 28.1, 26.4, 15.2, 22.6, all P<0.01) ; 94.8% (235/248) of participants′ knowledge of COVID-19 mainly came from voice call. In addition, the patient′s overall satisfaction with the application of the intelligent voice call system for popularizing science education was 90.8% (225/248). Conclusions:The knowledge levels of COVID-19 and its prevention and control measures effectively have been improved among the community chronic disease patients with the application of an intelligent voice outbound system. Moreover, this mode is highly acceptable to patients, which would be introduced to other urban communities in China.
ABSTRACT
