Epilepsy is one of the chronic central nervous system diseases that can occur repeatedly for a long time. About 70 million people worldwide suffer from epilepsy. Two thirds of epileptic patients do not receive proper treatment because of inadequate health care services and social discrimination based on cultural beliefs. Effective health management mode can reduce the morbidity and mortality of patients and improve the quality of life of patients. This article divides management modes into five types: Hospital-based health management model, community-based health management model, family health management model, self-health management model and health management model based on network technology. By referring to relevant literature, the research status of epilepsy health management model at home and abroad was summarized, which provides reference for the health management and reasonable intervention of patients with epilepsy.
Objective To investigate the satisfaction of patients who signed up for chronic disease continuous health management services, so as to provide a theoretical basis for improving service quality. Methods We conducted an online anonymous survey by issuing an electronic questionnaire to all patients who met the inclusion criteria through the short message platform of the hospital from October 8th to 19th, 2021, and used χ2 test and logistic regression to compare the differences in satisfaction among different patients and explore the factors affecting satisfaction. Results A total of 3311 short messages were send out, and 816 valid copies of questionnaire were recalled. The total satisfaction was 77.3%, and the satisfaction before, during and after service were 86.0%, 75.2% and 73.7%, respectively. The items with low satisfaction included service pricing (58.9%), online follow-up (57.5%) and overall cost reduction (43.9%). There were significant differences in satisfaction among patients of different permanent addresses and health status (P<0.05). The multiple binary logistic regression analysis showed that the respondents in Chengdu city had lower satisfaction than those outside Sichuan province [odds ratio (OR)=0.377, 95% confidence interval (CI) (0.156, 0.908), P=0.030], and the respondents with poor, general, and good self-reported health status had lower satisfaction than those with very good self-reported health status [OR=0.196, 95%CI (0.067, 0.577), P=0.003; OR=0.165, 95%CI (0.058, 0.468), P=0.001; OR=0.317, 95%CI (0.108, 0.927), P=0.036]. Conclusions The patients’ satisfaction with chronic disease continuous health management services is at a high level. The next step should focus on service pricing and online follow-up, and strive to improve the service experience of people with low satisfaction.
Objective To analyse the content and structure of the health management policy text for chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) in China, and to provide a reference for the optimization and improvement of subsequent relevant policies. Methods We searched for relevant policy documents on COPD health management at the national level from January 2017 to December 2023, constructed a two-dimensional analysis framework for policy tools and chronic disease health management processes, coded and classified policy texts, and used content analysis method to analyze policy texts. Results Twenty-four policy texts were included. There were 183 codes for policy tool dimension, with supply based, environmental based, and demand based tools accounting for 43.72%, 47.54%, and 8.74%, respectively. There were 124 codes for the dimension of health management processes, with health information collection and management accounting for 12.10%, risk prediction accounting for 14.52%, intervention and treatment accounting for 66.13%, and follow-up and effectiveness evaluation accounting for 7.26%. Conclusions At present, the proportion of policy tools related to the management of COPD in China needs to be dynamically adjusted. Environmental tools should be appropriately reduced, the internal structure of supply tools should be optimized, the driving effect of demand tools should be comprehensively enhanced, the coupling of COPD health management processes should be strengthened, and the relevant policy system and overall quality should be continuously improved.
The new coming era has brought great challenge to present health service model, and the development of new science and technology had improved the reconstruction of medical system and model. With the guidance of evidence-based management and participation of model technology, this paper provides an explanation of the new health service model containing new health management, clinical medicine, chronic disease management and elder care which cover the whole life cycle, so as to implement the " Health China” strategy and develop a whole life cycle health service system for all residents with necessary, high quality, and affordable prevention, treatment, rehabilitation and health promotion.
ObjectiveTo analysis the situation of health management service project for patients with hypertension in basic public health service project of Sichuan province from 2015 to 2016, and to provide enhancing suggestions for community prevention of hypertension.MethodsA total of 42 health clinics or community health service centers, 21 counties and 21 cities were extracted each year by method of multistage stratified random sampling from 2015 to 2016. In each institution, we sampled 10 residents, health records of hypertension. Telephone survey was used to judge the accuracy and standard ability of services the patients received according to the national basic public health service specifications, such as personal information, physical examing records, follow up information.The blood pressure of the last follow-up was recorded.ResultsRate of the managed hypertension was from 42.09% to 40.31% (χ2=115.33, P<0.05), rate of the records with accurate information was from 84.29% to 88.79% (χ2=1.94, P=0.16), and rate of the patients received normative services was from 69.49% to 72.33% (χ2=0.54, P=0.57). The control rate of blood pressure was from 82.66% to 85.37% (χ2=0.52, P=0.48). The standardization of the service could obviously improve blood pressure control rates (χ2=22.61, P<0.05).ConclusionProgress has been achieved in health management service of hypertension in Sichuan province from 2015 to 2016, however the standardization of the service is needed to be further enhanced.
Currenty, China still faces problems such as an aging population, the younger onset of chronic diseases, and insufficient primary medical care and preventive services in some regions. The profession of health management professionals is on the rise in China, but there are few domestic studies on how to define the connotation and boundaries of health management professionals, the current development status of the industry, and its existing deficiencies. This article aims to review the current development status and existing problems of health management professionals in China and put forward suggestions for their future development.
