ABSTRACT
Objective To evaluate the effects of measures on the schistosomiasis control after the earth quake in Lushan County so as to provide the experiences for post-disaster schistosomiasis control. Methods The measures taken in schistosomi-asis control after the earth quake were reviewed in Lushan County in 2013 and the epidemic situation of schistosomiasis was in-vestigated and the results were analyzed. Results The schistosomiasis control in floating population and the control of Oncome-lania hupensis snails were enhanced and no schistosome infections were found in both human and livestock. No infected snails and infested water were found. Conclusion The measures of schistosomiasis control after the disaster are effective in Lushan County and the goal to prevent major plague after the earth quake is achieved.
ABSTRACT
Objective To understand the vital signs on admission time and traumatic classification of the inpatients injured in Lushan Earthquake ,and provide a basis evidence for handling major disasters and treating masses of injured patients .Methods The information of patients injured in Lushan Earthquake who were admitted in Chengdu Military General Hospital was collected by“No .1 Military Medical Project” hospital information system and self-edited “Questionnaire for Hospitalized Patients Injured in 4 .20 Lushan Earthquake” .The data of the vital signs on admission time and traumatic classification of these patients were analyzed by SPSS 16 .0 .Results A total of 65 civilian patients were admitted in this hospital .Among these patients ,there were 30 men (46 .15% )and 35 women(53 .85% );with mean age of(45 .74 ± 20 .96)years old .On admission time ,the abnormal rates of tempera-ture ,pulse ,respiratory rate ,systolic pressure ,diastolic pressure of these patients were 18 .46% ,6 .15% ,21 .54% ,12 .31% and 23 .08% ,respectively .48(73 .85% )patients had closed injury .Traumatic condition:8(12 .31% )patients in mild degree ,17(26 .15% ) patients in moderate degree ,32 patients(49 .23% )patients in severe degree and 8(12 .31% )patients in critical degree .The top 4 traumatic parts were as follows :33(50 .77% )patients got waist(abdomen)division and pelvis(perineum);31(47 .69% )patients got lower limb injuries;18(27 .69% )patients got chest and back injuries and 10(15 .38% )patients got facial injuries .There were 39 skin and soft tissue injuries ,counting for 60 .00% ,and 38 fractures ,counting for 58 .46% .Conclusion The epidemiological characteris-tics of earthquake injuries are founded by analyzing the vital signs on admission time and traumatic classification of the inpatients in-jured in Lushan earthquake ,which suggests attention of the relevant scholars and departments .
ABSTRACT
Objective To investigate the application of field work logs in collection of the disaster information in medical rescue of earthquake.Methods The self-designed work logs were made according to the condition of the wounded in the medical rescue of Lushan earthquake.Through the field work logs,we got first hand information which facilitate statistics,inquiry and subsequent follow-up work.Results By using the field work logs,the rescue workers guaranteed the collection of original data timely and accurately,supplied a number of rich and a-list clinical data and also facilitated the masses in disaster areas looking for their relatives.Conclusions The application of field work logs played a pivotal role in medical rescue of Lushan earthquake.It can be widely extended as a general manner in emergency disaster rescue after further perfection.
