  • Challenges and strategies of healthcare-associated infection control

    Medical institutions of China still face two challenges in hospital infections currently: one challenge is from infection, including infectious diseases, multidrug-resistant bacteria healthcare-associated infection (HAI), and classic HAI; the another challenge comes from the management of HAI in medical institutions, such as lack of full-time staff and insufficient capacity, inadequate infection control organizations, insufficient awareness of infection control among medical staff, and unbalanced development. To cope with these severe challenges, we must do the following three aspects: establishing the discipline of HAI, and improving people’s infection control ability through human-orienting; improving the management organization and system of HAI; improving the awareness of infection control among all medical staff, carrying out scientific and orderly infection prevention and control work in accordance with the law, and adhering to evidence-based infection control.

    ObjectiveTo investigate changes of the psychological heath condition of postgraduates in professional degree (PPD) of clinical medicine under "clinical-practical and medical-educational combination" training mode.MethodsA cluster sampling method was adopted for 101 PPDs and 120 postgraduates in academic degree (PAD) of clinical medicine in grade 2015 of our university. The psychological health condition was evaluated using online questionnaires at the time of enrollment in 2015 and prior to graduation in 2018.ResultsA total of 82 valid questionnaires in PPD group and 96 valid questionnaires in PAD group were collected in 2018. Compared with 2015, the scores of K6 for assessing psychological distress within 1 month, PHQ-9 for the depression module and the PHQ-15 for assessing somatic symptoms within 1 month decreased in 2018 (P<0.05), while the scores of sleep time in Pittsburgh Sleep Index Questionnaire increased in 2018 (P<0.05). The scores of K6 and PHQ-15 within 12 months in the group with excellent academic achievement prior to graduation were higher than those in the other three groups (P<0.05), and the hypnotic scores of the group with poor academic achievement were higher than those of the other three groups (P<0.05).ConclusionsThe emotion, somatic symptoms and psychological feelings of PDDs and PADs are superior than those at the time of admission, and the ability of psychological stress adjustment gradually matured and improved. However, the pressures faced by PPDs and PADs may originate from different aspects, and the "clinical-practical and medical-educational combination" training mode has not included more pressure on the PPDs. Graduates with excellent academic achievements are under significant pressure. However, the ability to adjust is strong, and the physiological health condition of graduate with inferior academic achievements may require more attention from educators.
