While the hospital is treating patients and saving people, the quality and safety of medical care are also the top priorities of the hospital’s work. It is understood that since last year, a number of hospital-related epidemics have occurred across the country, involving hospital cleaning staff, medical staff, and inpatients. Today, Hunan Provincial CDC issued an emergency reminder to conscientiously implement nosocomial infection prevention and control measures to reduce and eliminate the risk of nosocomial infection.

To achieve “internal and external protection”, implement “early detection, early The prevention and control measures based on reporting, early isolation, and early treatment”, and “entrance gates” of personnel, vehicles and materials in medical institutions. Personnel entering medical institutions should have their body temperature checked, the wearing of masks, and strengthen sensory control monitoring. .

05

The hospital’s infection control gate was moved forward, and the three-level prevention and control measures were fully implemented. Scientifically set up pre-examination and triage points, and ensure the three lines of defense of hospital entrance, outpatient and emergency department and ward. Consolidate the “outpost” responsibility of the fever clinic, so that the fever clinic does not go out for six times (pre-examination, diagnosis and treatment, inspection and testing, taking medicine, CT, and observation) to ensure closed-loop management.

06

Strengthen the management of fever clinics. Fever clinics should be equipped with a certain number of relevant professional medical personnel, equipped with a certain number of isolation observation rooms and equipment, so that registration, dispensing, testing, injection, and charging “five not going out”. If it is temporarily impossible to achieve “five not going out”, during the movement of the patient, the principle of “the shortest distance, the least contact person, and the personal protection and escort” should be strictly followed, and the relevant elevators, examination rooms and other areas should ensure that the patient is used alone, and strictly implement Disinfection and isolation system.

All medical and health institutions should improve the sensitivity of the management of inpatient wards, strengthen the epidemiological history investigation of hospitalized patients during the prevention and control of the new coronary pneumonia epidemic, and those who come to Hunan from key areas should complete corresponding medical observation. Closely observe the condition of hospitalized patients. Once fever and respiratory symptoms without clear incentives are found, corresponding tests should be carried out immediately, and if necessary, they should be transferred to the isolation ward.

08
