ABSTRACT
BACKGROUND: Urban barrier-free facilities are imperfect in China, but visually impaired people need barrier-free facilities urgently. OBJECTIVE: To understand the public’s cognition and problems about urban barrier-free facilities, and put forward improvement suggestions by researching the application status of barrier-free facilities in Shijiazhuang (taking tactile ground surface indicator as an example). METHODS: One hundred and eighteen citizens and 51 ordinary sanitation workers at Shijiazhuang were randomly selected, and underwent cognitive survey by questionnaire. Meanwhile, 60 visually impaired persons were tactile ground surface indicator using survey by questionnaire. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: Most citizens, sanitation workers and visually impaired person have a certain understanding of tactile ground surface indicator, but the awareness rate is still low. Totally 7% citizens and 18% sanitation workers did not know the tactile ground surface indicator, and the travel rate of visually impaired people was extremely low, only 38% visually impaired person were able to travel frequently. More than 50% people thought that the tactile ground surface indicator had not actually effect. Only 19% citizens were more satisfied with the supervision, maintenance and maintenance of the tactile ground surface indicator. 56% visually impaired people believed that it had no practical effect, and 42% visually impaired people said that their travel range was less than 1 km. It means that the public cognition rate and the tactile ground surface indicator utilization rate are low. We also put forward improvement suggestions from three aspects: Strengthening publicity education and training, rehabilitation training for the visually impaired persons, strengthen construction and maintenance, so as to protect the rights and interests for disabled people, promote them return to society and improve their quality of life.
ABSTRACT
Objective:To provide specific suggestions for the reasonable application of various quality sampling inspection methods for Chinese herbal medicines in order to improve the scientificity of sampling inspection plan. Methods:The sampling inspection pro-gram and the overall quality of Chinese herbal medicines in Hubei province from 2014 to 2016 were reviewed and the existing problems were analyzed, finally, suggestions for improvement were proposed for the future work. Results and Conclusion:The current sampling inspection methods have made certain achievements;however, each method still needs optimization. It is suggested that the supervision sampling inspection be standardized to solidify the basis of sampling inspection, special sampling inspection be arranged periodically to target the complicated and recurring quality issues, and evaluation sampling inspection be strengthened for certain varieties to evaluate the overall quality status and discover the risk signals.
ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVE:To evaluate the quality of sampling drugs of Hubei province,and to provide reference for drug enter-prises and supervision department. METHODS:The data obtained by Hubei Institute for Food and Drug Control about provincial drug sampling and testing from 2013 to 2015 were summarized,the overall quality and unqualified items were statistically analyzed according to current standard. RESULTS & CONCLUSIONS:The number of total sampling batches was 7721 and that of the un-qualified batches was 333 (4.3%) during 2013-2015. Most of the unqualified samples came from distribution units (2.8%-9.0%) and medical institutions (5.2% -11.7%). Among all sample types, the herbal medicine has the highest unqualified rate (12.1%-37.4%),with the largest number of unqualified items(content determination,supplement inspection item,property,resid-ual amount of sulfur dioxide,ash content). The quality of pharmaceutical preparations is relatively stable,and the unqualified items correlated with drug types and dosage forms. The current issues of provincial drug sampling and testing are the variety of standard levels,unreasonable sampling resource allocation and the low level of the industry. Supervision department is proposed to readjust drug standard,reasonably plan sampling and testing process and strengthen production source controlling.
