In order to establish objective, scientific, effective performance assessment system and strengthen government’s supervision on health service in our country, this research retrieved literature on relevant official UK websites and databases to get the whole picture of NHS (National Health Service) performance assessment policy, documents and reports. Based on the introduction of NHS Performance Assessment Framework (1999), NHS Performance Assessment Framework: Implementation Guidance (2009) and NHS Performance Rating, it summarized and analyzed the experience and measures of NHS Performance Assessment, which enlightened us in the following aspects: a) We should pay more attention to the performance assessment of national healthcare system and spread out the relevant work in China; b) Performance assessment is closely linked with national health policy and its strategic focus; c) Performance assessment centers on quality; d) We should take performance assessment as a strategic tool to improve the healthcare system performance.
Objective To investigate the diabetic knowledge of primary hospital doctors and diabetes patients, and to explore the way to improve the capability of primary hospitals in preventing and treating diabetes. Methods Between January 2013 and June 2014, we set questionnaires to learn the profiles of diabetes knowledge of 328 internal and general medicine doctors including 43 chronic disease management workers from fifteen township hospitals and two community health centers, 152 doctors from village clinics, and 575 diabetes patients in Xindu District of Chengdu City. We made questionnaires for doctors and patients respectively to investigate their knowledge on diabetes and blood sugar control in the patients. Finally, we made plans to train doctors in primary hospitals according to the results of the investigation. Results For township hospitals, 328 questionnaires were given out with 319 retrieved, and the valid retrieval rate was 97.3%; 152 questionnaires were given out to village doctors and 149 were retrieved, with a valid retrieval rate of 98.0%; and we gave out 575 questionnaires to the diabetes patients and retrieved 539, with a valid retrieval rate of 93.7%. Primary hospitals were insufficient in their drug varieties. Among doctors in township hospitals, 7.8% had bachelor’s degree, 53.6% had received post-secondary education, and 38.6% had received secondary vocational education. Most of the village doctors had not received any professional medical education, among whom, 89.9% had a certificate of village doctors and 10.1% had a certificate of assistant doctors. The diabetes questionnaire score of primary hospital doctors was low, while the score of chronic disease management workers was relatively higher (P<0.05). For diabetes patients, medical investment was inadequate, treatment rate was low, common sense of diabetes was insufficient, and glycosylated hemoglobin control rate was only 13.5%. Conclusions Diabetes patients in primary hospitals have a poor disease control, which is probably associated with the insufficient publicity and education from doctors. It is necessary to train primary hospital doctors at all levels. In order to get the best therapeutic effect, we advocate that diabetes should be managed by doctors of chronic disease management, although they should receive systematic training for a long time.
【摘要】 目的 探讨颅内原发生殖细胞瘤的临床特征。方法 收集华西医院脑外科2000年1月—2009年3月119例颅内原发生殖细胞瘤的临床资料进行回顾性分析。结果 发病率约占同期颅内肿瘤的 1.1%。男〖DK〗∶女=1.64〖DK〗∶1,平均发病年龄15.4岁。临床表现主要为颅内高压症状及视力视野改变,分别为61、56例；肿瘤主要来源于松果体区及鞍区；64例患者行放疗或放疗加化疗,随访45例。55例患者行手术治疗(其中术后行单纯放疗19例,放疗加化疗5例),随访36例。随访时间3~94个月,平均29.7个月。行放疗和放化疗的患者3、5年生存率明显高于单纯行手术治疗的患者。结论 颅内原发生殖细胞瘤多见于儿童及青少年,男性多见,肿瘤大多位于松果体区及鞍区。临床表现位于松果体区者主要为颅内高压症状等,位于鞍区者主要为视力视野改变、尿崩等。放疗联合化疗是主要治疗手段。
