Objective To understand the current situation of medical service and management in Luxi township health center (LxC) in Yongxin county of Jiangxi province, so as to provide baseline data about drug allocation, logistic key techniques research and products development for township health centers. Methods By means of questionnaire and focus interview, the LxC was investigated from the following aspects: general information, human resources, medicine list, basic device configuration, medical service and management, as well as service efficiency. Results a) Yongxin county including 13 village committees covers an area of 86 km2, with the population of 22 300 in 2009, and it pertains to a backward area with the annual per capita income of RMB 4 100 yuan; b) Among the total 28 staffs in LxC, 78.6% were health workers; the general practitioner (GP)/nurse ratio was about 1?0.58; the proportion of GP, nurses, medical technicians, other staffs was 54.55%, 31.82%, 9.09% and 4.54%, respectively; the proportion of bachelor degree, junior college graduation and secondary technical school graduation was 9.1%, 13.6%, and 77.3%, respectively; and the ratio of elementary, middle, and high professional title of health workers was 15?5?1; c) There were 625 species of drugs in LxC in 2009, and the hospital beds approved by government were 0.69 per thousand agricultural persons, which, however, were 1.15 in fact. The rate of 51 basic equipments shown in national regulation was actually 76.5%, and the readiness and utilization rate of existing 40 equipments was 92.5%; and d) In 2009, the outpatients were 12 150 person-time, with the average cost of RMB 29.39 yuan; the hospital discharge was 1 589 person-time, with the average stay of 12 days and the average cost of RMB 490.05 yuan; the vaccine inoculations were 5 053 person-time; among the total income, the medical service income accounted for 73.2%, while the drug income accounted for 53.7%; the personnel expenditure was 31.0% of the total, and the balance of income and expenditure was RMB –263 500 yuan. Conclusion The hardware condition of LxC is not so good owing to the financial difficulties of Yongxin county and Jiangxi provincial government. In comparison with the whole country, although the professional title structure is ok, health workers are still not enough, with unreasonable specialty structure and low educational background. The rate of basic equipments and the approved hospital beds per thousand agricultural persons are low. There are 625 species of drugs, containing 218 species shown in 2009 national essential medicine list. And the other conditions are as follows: no information system, lack of public health service, short of financial input, high ratio of “running hospital by selling drugs”, and low efficiency of medical service. So the top priority of LxC construction should be figuring out all of the above issues, and better serving the people.
Consensus reporting items for studies in primary care (CRISP) is a newly developed measurement tool developed abroad to standardize primary health care research, so as to improve the quality of reporting and enhance the applicability, comprehensiveness, transparency and operability of reporting. The report contains 24 Entries that follow the Introduction, Methods, Results, Discussion (IMRaD) format, and is primarily concerned with describing the research team, the patients, the study subjects, the health status, the clinical experience, the health care team, the interventions, the study interventions, and the findings in the PHC study / implementation of results, etc. This article introduces and interprets the reporting guidelines to help researchers better understand and apply this statement to improve the quality of reporting in primary health care research
This paper introduces the concept, characteristics, similar concepts, system of knowledge, theoretic model and typical example of improvement science in health care sector, and analyzes a project of quality improvement in order to demonstrate the practical implication. It attempts to provide evidence and reference for future relative studies.
背景 基于仿真研究(simulation-based research,SBR)的数量迅速增加,但是这类研究的报告质量却需亟待提高。为使读者能够批判性地评估研究,研究报告的要素需要在文章中清晰地报告出来。我们旨在通过扩展试验报告的统一标准(Consolidated Standards of Reporting Trial,CONSORT)和加强流行病学观察性研究报告(Strengthening the Reporting of Observational Studies in Epidemiology,STROBE)声明来制定卫生保健仿真研究的报告规范。 方法 在制定报告规范的建议步骤基础上,使用迭代的多步共识法建立流程。多步共识法包括以下内容:① 建立指导委员会;② 定义报告规范的范围;③ 确定共识小组参与者;④ 通过在线会前调查生成拟讨论项目清单;⑤ 召开共识会议;⑥ 起草报告规范及解释与说明文件。 结果 对 CONSORT 的 11 个条目进行了扩展,包括条目 1(文题和摘要),条目 2(背景),条目 5(干预措施),条目 6(结局指标),条目 11(盲法),条目 12(统计方法),条目 15(基线数据),条目 17(结果和估计值),条目 20(局限性),条目 21(可推广性)和条目 25(资金来源)。对 STROBE 的 10 个条目进行了扩展:条目 1(文题和摘要),条目 2(背景/原理),条目 7(变量),条目 8(数据来源/数据测量),条目 12(统计方法),条目 14(描述性数据),条目 16(主要结果),条目 19(局限性),条目 21(可推广性)和条目 22(资金来源)。工作组已创建详细说明文档,提供每个扩展条目的示例和说明。 结论 制订基于 CONSORT 和 STROBE 声明的仿真研究扩展版,可帮助提高仿真研究的报告质量。
ObjectiveTo analyze the main input and output of healthcare reform in China, and to provide references for improving the policies and measures of healthcare reform in China in future. MethodsData from the National Health Services Survey, and the China Statistical Yearbook etc. was collected to compare and analyze the allocation of health resources, health status of residents, health service utilization, and medical burden before and after healthcare reform. ResultsDuring the reform from 2009 to 2013, hospital health and technical personnel increased year by year. In 2013, the proportion of health and technical personnel in hospitals was up to 61.4% of the total national health technical personnel. In 2013, 65.19% of government expenditure on healthcare was used for disease treatment, and only 14.59% was used for disease prevention. Compared with the year of 2008, the two-week prevalence rate of residents increased by 5.2%, the chronic disease prevalence rate increased by 9% in 2013. Compared with the year of 2009, the annually diagnosed and treated patients increased 18.2 billion person-time, the annually discharged patients increased 59.65 million person-time in 2013. The individual residents paid 52.49% of total medical expenses. ConclusionSince the healthcare reform, China's central and local governments have imputed a large number of health resources into hospitals for "disease treatment". That partly improved the utilization of residents' health service, but the two-week prevalence rate and chronic disease prevalence rate are rapidly growing. There is still high burden of medical expenses for the residents. China's healthcare model should be changed from "treatment-centered" to "prevention-centered" in future.
