Operating costs face numerous challenges: how public hospitals can "calculate this account" and cover nearly 80% of medical services | public hospitals | costs

Since the outbreak of the epidemic, the economic operation of public hospitals has faced unprecedented challenges and pressures. How to strengthen refined management internally, improve the level of medical services, ensure financial and medical insurance support externally, and provide high-quality services to citizens in the context of high-quality development is an urgent pain point that needs to be solved. At the Shanghai Health Economy Youth Forum and the 74th bimonthly lecture of the Shanghai Health and Health Development Research Center, how to strengthen cost control and quality management has become a topic of deep thinking and hot discussion among everyone. Under the impact of the epidemic, public hospitals have experienced several declines. For a long time, public hospitals have played a leading role in providing medical and health services nationwide, accounting for nearly 80% of outpatient and inpatient services. At the same time, after canceling the markup on drugs and consumables, the price adjustment of medical services has not been in place, especially after the COVID-19 epidemic

Through the use of artificial intelligence assisted detection products, the detection rate of polyps has been improved, and the incidence and mortality rate of colorectal cancer have been reduced. Recently, Tencent Seeking Pictures, in collaboration with multiple medical institutions, launched the "Electronic Endoscopic Image Assisted Detection Software for Colonic Polyps" to achieve real-time assistance and reminders for clinical doctors through artificial intelligence, which will effectively improve the early detection and intervention of diseases. Data shows that the number of new cases of colorectal cancer in China has increased from 388000 in 2015 to 555000 in 2020. It is expected that the number of new cases and deaths from colorectal cancer will double by 2040. The early detection rate of colorectal cancer needs to be improved. Experts explain that the ability of colonoscopy examiners to detect adenomas is easily affected by their technical level, fatigue level, and alertness, and there are also significant differences with individual doctors. However, colonoscopy examination is cumbersome and invasive, which can easily lead to poor patient acceptance

A thousand miles away in southeastern Yunnan - Qiubei County, Yunnan Province, has beautiful scenery and simple folk customs. However, there is a shortage of medical resources and many people are unable to seek medical treatment locally. How can high-quality medical resources be sent to mountainous areas? Seven years ago, the North Campus of Huashan Hospital affiliated with Fudan University signed a paired assistance agreement with the government of Qiubei County and the People's Hospital, and the Youth League Committee of Huashan Hospital launched the "Caiyun Plan" volunteer service. Volunteer service has pioneered a new model of "medical+education" assistance in Shanghai and Yunnan, from providing medical technology to supporting impoverished students and promoting science education. After seven years, the Huashan North Hospital was reorganized and merged into Huashan Hospital, and the "Caiyun Plan" was not interrupted. During this period, medical youths from Huashan entered the mountains in batches under the organization of the Youth League Committee, bringing health and well-being to the people and igniting the academic dreams of the children in the mountains. Recently, on the occasion of the 102nd anniversary of the founding of the Communist Party of China, the "Colorful Cloud Plan"

Unexpectedly Abdominal Aortic Dissection: Domestic Upgrade "Four Windows" Challenge Intraluminal Treatment Forbidden Area, Female Abdominal Pain for Two Months Xue Guanhua | Ms. | Domestic

Ms. Yu suffered from stomach pain for two months, but was unexpectedly discovered to have a silent "bomb" in her blood vessels, posing a threat to her life at any time. Abdominal aortic dissection involving visceral vascular areas has always been a treatment "forbidden zone" with great difficulty. Xue Guanhua, Chief Physician of the Vascular Surgery Department at Renji Hospital Affiliated to Shanghai Jiao Tong University School of Medicine, has decided to face the challenge and work with Ms. Yu to innovate: reconstructing visceral arteries through a fenestrated branch stent. In the past, experts needed to "open windows" outside the body and modify the four branches of the stent on their own. However, the latest challenge is the domestic upgrade of "four windows", which combines two domestic stents with their own branch brackets to form two branches, and then "open windows" two more branches outside the body, reducing the original "window opening" time of one or two hours to less than 45 minutes. This innovative upgrade treatment for complex visceral areas actively involves abdominal surgery

Unexpectedly, the internal organs have come out! The multidisciplinary team of Zhongshan Hospital successfully dismantled the bomb, and the grandfather's abdomen was as huge as a pregnancy in October. Surgery | blood vessels | viscera

The abdomen is huge like being pregnant for ten months, with skin ulcers and rags on the raised area of the belly. Underneath the thin skin are faintly visible internal organs, which look like a "big ball" about to explode... When Mr. Luan came to Zhongshan Hospital affiliated with Fudan University for consultation, Professor Dong Zhihui of the Department of Vascular Surgery took a breath. In the end, after joint diagnosis and treatment by experts from multiple disciplines, the patient was successfully disarmed, and Mr. Luan was also discharged smoothly recently. Four months ago, 73 year old Mr. Luan suddenly experienced persistent abdominal pain, making it difficult for him to exhaust and defecate. The local hospital diagnosed him with "umbilical hernia with small intestinal obstruction" and performed exploratory laparotomy and hernia repair surgery. However, two months after the surgery, the wound did not heal for a long time, and the stomach became increasingly swollen. As time goes by, even fist sized bumps grow around the edge of the knife, causing the skin nearby to repeatedly rupture

Tracheal protuberance tumor obstructs normal breathing, and ultra precision surgery is performed to clear the airway congestion at the triple junction of the trachea. Seeing that the patient has been transferred from the intensive care unit to the general ward and will soon recover and be discharged, the chief surgeon Zhao Xiaojing's heart finally relaxed. Recently, the team led by Zhao Xiaojing from the Department of Thoracic Surgery at Renji Hospital Affiliated to Shanghai Jiao Tong University School of Medicine once again broke through the technical limit and completed a trachea carina tumor resection and complex carina reconstruction surgery, with up to three tracheal anastomoses. Two sets of plans ensure the safety of patients during surgery. At the beginning of this year, 63 year old Aunt Wang discovered a tracheal tumor during a physical examination, which seriously affected respiratory function. The patient was sent to Renji Hospital for treatment at the end of February. After consultation with Director of Thoracic Surgery Zhao Xiaojing and his team, it was determined that adenoid cystic carcinoma of the tracheal carina affected both main bronchi and the opening of the right upper lobe bronchus

Let healthcare professionals understand "storytelling" medicine: Shanghai Medical Ethics Society Narrative Medicine Branch Established Mother | Patient | Medicine

"Relying solely on scientific medicine cannot help patients fight against the loss of health and find the meaning of disease and death." In 2001, Rita Karen, a professor of internal medicine at Columbia University, proposed the concept of "narrative medicine", which added a humanistic nourishment to medical science that emphasizes professionalism. Narrative techniques such as patient storytelling and doctor listening can bring each other closer psychologically. Only when doctors understand the patient's experience to a certain extent can medical care be carried out with humility, trust, and respect. Recently, the Narrative Medicine Branch of the Shanghai Medical Ethics Society was officially established, and appointment letters were issued to honorary chairman Chen Dezhi and chairman Zhang Yanhua of the Narrative Medicine Branch. Yang Fang, President of Shanghai Medical Ethics Society, Yu Ying and Hu Yiqun, Vice Presidents, First level Inspector of Shanghai Health Commission, and Shanghai Medical Ethics

"One, two, one, two... Okay, don't take too big a step, take it slow." At around 10 o'clock in the morning, the female patient in hospital uniform walked slowly in the hallway under the guidance of a nurse and accompanied by her family. "I completed the surgery yesterday, and the pain was much lighter than expected. The doctor taught me how to recover and exercise, and I hope to be discharged smoothly today." Ms. Liu, who was in her thirties, was diagnosed with a small pulmonary nodule during her physical examination, and the outpatient doctor suggested performing thoracoscopic wedge resection of the lung. The anxiety before being admitted to the day surgery ward has now been shattered one by one. "On the same day of the surgery, she was discharged the next day and was able to eat, drink, and walk, which is completely different from my memories of visiting patients before." Miss Liu checked into the day surgery ward of Shanghai Chest Hospital. Inside the independent light colored exterior wall, there are 14 quiet beds that operate in an orderly and efficient manner. two hundred and two

How is the treatment of dental implants bidding farewell to the "era of ten thousand yuan"?, "The Most Difficult Collection in History" Postmedical | Oral | Era

The folk have always had the joke of "planting a tooth, selling a car". It can be said that compared to the diagnosis and treatment of ordinary oral diseases, dental implants require higher skills and consumables from the surgeon, resulting in higher prices. Nowadays, some patients who are hesitant about dental implants are seeing a dawn: the medical service price of a single conventional simple dental implant has completely bid farewell to the "era of ten thousand yuan", which has become another common disease area benefiting from the national centralized and volume based procurement policy, following medical consumables such as heart stents and artificial joints. However, while favorable policies were implemented, a variety of "price war" advertisements were also launched. Some citizens have raised doubts: can the quality of dental implant treatment still be guaranteed after the price reduction? Which patients actually need dental implant treatment? Meanwhile, what should dental medical institutions affected by this policy do

The 14th China Cancer Intervention and Minimally Invasive Treatment Conference and the 8th Asia Pacific Cancer Intervention Conference held today announced that the "Chinese Expert Consensus on Peripheral Intervention through the Radial Artery" led by the Interventional Department of Zhongshan Hospital affiliated with Fudan University has been officially released, which will effectively fill the gap in the field of interventional diagnosis and treatment in China. What is intervention? Experts explain that under the guidance and monitoring of imaging equipment, puncture needles, catheters, and other interventional devices are used to guide specific instruments into the affected area of the human body through natural pores or small wounds for minimally invasive treatment. In recent years, interventional therapy has been widely known for its advantages of minimally invasive, efficient, and precise treatment. However, traditional peripheral intervention surgery often uses the femoral artery approach, which requires strict immobilization of the lower limbs for 6 hours and bed rest for at least 12 hours after surgery, causing inconvenience to patients

How to solve the recurring problem of parking difficulties? Shanghai Children's Medical Institutions in the summer face the challenge of facing the peak of specialty training | hospitals | specialties

Every summer vacation, children's medical institutions in Shanghai experience a peak of medical visits, and the problem of hospital parking becomes increasingly prominent. Recently, a reporter from Jiefang Daily's Shangguan News visited and found that after the normalization of epidemic prevention and control, the number of pediatric specialist visits has rebounded strongly. During the summer vacation, due to the frequent driving trips of the affected children's families, traffic congestion occurred around the hospital. How to guide and alleviate traffic problems around hospitals? How to seek medical treatment in an orderly manner during the peak period of specialized departments? Since the summer vacation, traffic congestion around children's medical institutions has become a norm due to the increase in traffic congestion around hospitals caused by family outings. The Affiliated Pediatric Hospital of Fudan University is located between Wanyuan Road, Gudai Road, and Hechuan Road in Minhang District. The reporter drove there at 10am last Tuesday. When Gudai Road turned into Wanyuan Road, congestion began, and the subsequent "tailgating" phenomenon was severe. Ms. Liu, who took her child to see a respiratory disease, bluntly said, "My child..."

Will artificial intelligence reverse the trend?, By 2030, there will be a 13% labor shortage in the global healthcare industry. Artificial intelligence | healthcare | labor

The medical industry is undergoing significant changes. At the 2023 World Artificial Intelligence Conference, a third-party market research report from GE Medical, a globally renowned medical equipment and device company, showed that healthcare professionals in multiple countries around the world experience occupational burnout, with 61% of clinical doctors believing that artificial intelligence can support clinical decision-making. 66% of Chinese doctors recognize that artificial intelligence can be used in the medical field, ranking first among surveyed countries. Doctors and patients worldwide are calling for the establishment of a more humane and caring service system to meet more medical needs. The World Health Organization previously predicted that there will be a global large-scale labor crisis in the healthcare industry, with a 13% labor shortage by 2030. In addition, the global population aged 60 and above will reach 1.4 billion, which will lead to an already unbearable burden

A 14-year-old girl has been experiencing symptoms such as protruding pupils, incomplete eye closure, corneal injury, restricted eye movement, and overall fatigue for several years. The physical discomfort and facial abnormalities caused by eye diseases have made her increasingly reticent, and her temperament is vastly different from before. At the Ophthalmology Department of the Ninth People's Hospital Affiliated to Shanghai Jiao Tong University School of Medicine, the pupil has been diagnosed with a rare thyroid ophthalmopathy combined with myasthenia gravis, which requires prompt treatment. However, considering the young age of the pupil, conventional hormone and radiation therapy cannot be used. Therefore, Zhou Huifang, Deputy Director of Ophthalmology and thyroid ophthalmology expert, has developed a targeted drug combined with surgical treatment plan for it, and targeted drug treatment will be performed first. Three months ago, I was hospitalized for one week with mydriasis and received intravenous targeted drug treatment. Afterwards, I went home for observation and followed up on time

Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is a disease that affects the health of women throughout their lives. The incidence rate of PCOS accounts for 6-10% of women of childbearing age and 80-85% of women who do not ovulate. There are about 15 million patients in China. The combination of traditional Chinese and Western medicine has a unique therapeutic effect on polycystic ovary syndrome. To verify clinical efficacy, the prospective randomized controlled multicenter clinical research project on the treatment of polycystic ovary syndrome with kidney yang deficiency and phlegm obstruction type and kidney yin deficiency and phlegm stasis combination type by Shenluo Tiaojing Pill and Shenluo Yuchun Pill has been officially launched today. The reporter learned that Shenluo Tiaojing Pill and Shenluo Yuchun Pill are the core drugs for the diagnosis and treatment of polycystic ovary syndrome based on the classification of traditional Chinese and Western medicine gynecological experts and nationally renowned traditional Chinese medicine professor Yu Jin. They were approved for clinical application as hospital preparations in 2021. Professor Yu Jin's introduction: Polycystic ovary syndrome not only leads to infertility in patients
