Discussions on the emergency medical procedure of children's hospitals against COVID-19 epidemic / 中华医院管理杂志

December 2019 witnessed the outbreak of COVID-19 in Wuhan, Hubei province of China, which has soon spread nationwide and across national borders, posting a menacing pandemic threat. Children are themselves highly susceptible infectious diseases in normal times not to mention an epidemic period. Coupled with the high incidence of seasonal influenza, it is imperative to strengthen epidemiological screening of children, along with effective isolation, treatment, prevention and control measures. In view of specifics of the hospital, the authors proposed to further improve the medical emergency procedure, strictly enforcing screening and isolation regulations, and standardizing medical procedure. They also proposed scientific layout and use of the infection wards. These measures are designed to control the epidemic and protect the safety of medical staff.

Application of three-in-one intelligent screening in outpatient department of children's hospital during the COVID-19 epidemic / 浙江大学学报·医学版

OBJECTIVE@#: To evaluate the application of three-in-one intelligent screening in outpatient pre-inspection in Children's Hospital.@*METHODS@#We randomly enrolled 100 children pre-screened by traditional in the outpatient department of Children's Hospital Zhejiang University School of Medicine from February 6th to 16th, 2020, and another 100 children by the intelligent three-in-one mode from February 17th to 27th, 2020. The traditional triage was conducted by nurses based on face-to-face, one-by-one interview of the epidemiological history and consultation department, and the temperature was measured before manual triage. The intelligent three-in-one model of pre-inspection and triage combined online rapid pre-inspection and triage, on-site manual confirmation, as well as synchronized online health education system. For on-line registered patients, the system automatically sent the COVID-19 epidemiological pre-screening triage questionnaire one hour before the appointment, requiring parents to complete and submit online before arriving at the hospital. The on-site registered patients were controlled at 100 m outside of the hospital entrance. The nurses guided the parents to scan the QR code and fill in the COVID-19 epidemiological pre-examination triage questionnaire. At the entrance of the hospital, the nurse checked the guide sheet and took the temperature again. The children with red guidance sheet for isolation clinic were checked again and confirmed by pre-examination nurses, and accompanied to the isolation clinic by a special channel. The children with yellow guidance sheet were guided to fever clinic; parents with green guidance sheet took their children to the designated area by themselves, and then went to the corresponding consultation area after on-site manual pre inspection and registration. The whole process of health education was associated with outpatient notes, and the system automatically posted the corresponding outpatient instructions and education courses. Parents would read the courses on their mobile phones and counsel online. The time of pre-examination and the coincidence rate of triage were compared between the two groups.@*RESULTS@#The three-in-one intelligent pre-inspection mode took an average of (25.6±8.0) seconds for each child, which was significantly shorter than the traditional pre-inspection mode (74.8±36.4 seconds) (=13.182, 0.05).@*CONCLUSIONS@#The three-in-one intelligent pre-inspection model can effectively shorten the patient pre-check time, with similar triage coincidence rate to traditional model.

Research on operation mechanism of precision medical service system based on the actor network theory / 中华医院管理杂志

The actor network theory, with reference to systems science, sociology and management science, offers a new perspective for research of the technology-society binary view. This theory as introduced by the authors, analyzed the constituent bodies and their relationship of the operation of the precise medical service system, and studied the translation process of the actor network. The analysis showed that the main factors affecting the operation of the precision medical service system were hospitals, patients, governments, scientific research institutions, technology-based enterprises, and universities, which were suppliers, demanders, managers, funders, and technical supporters of precision medical services. Among them, 82.72%(335/405) of clinicians believed that hospitals were the core actor that affected the operation of precision medical service system. 71.60%(290/405) of the clinicians thought that the training of medical workers was the current focus of the hospital, i. e., the mandatory access point for this actor network. Through training, the accurate medical service ability of medical workers and hospitals can be improved.

Diagnosis and treatment recommendation for pediatric COVID-19 (the second edition) / 浙江大学学报·医学版

The coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) has caused a global pandemic. All people including children are generally susceptible to COVID-19, but the condition is relatively mild for children. The diagnosis of COVID-19 is largely based on the epidemiological evidence and clinical manifestations, and confirmed by positive detection of virus nucleic acid in respiratory samples. The main symptoms of COVID-19 in children are fever and cough; the total number of white blood cell count is usually normal or decreased; the chest imaging is characterized by interstitial pneumonia, which is similar to other respiratory virus infections and infections. Early identification, early isolation, early diagnosis and early treatment are important for clinical management. The treatment of mild or moderate type of child COVID-19 is mainly symptomatic. For severe and critical ill cases, the oxygen therapy, antiviral drugs, antibacterial drugs, glucocorticoids, mechanical ventilation or even extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) may be adopted, and the treatment plan should be adjusted timely through multi-disciplinary cooperation.
