After graduating from a Ph.D., she is willing to do "data processor": let more patients with chronic diseases have high -quality life

Wuhan Evening News July 15 (Reporter Jiang Mengqing) Chronic non -infectious diseases are the first type of disease with the highest prevalence and mortality rate. The Wuhan Centers for Disease Control and Prevention has been established and adhered to the prevention and control system of chronic non -infectious diseases since its establishment. Through the strategies such as disease monitoring, physical examination, intervention guidance, and follow -up management of diseases, the "invisible" defense line is built for the health of the general public.

Recently, Yan Yaqiong, director of the Chronic Disease Prevention of the Wuhan Disease Prevention and Control Center, is busy organizing the training of early screening capabilities of grass -roots respiratory diseases in the city, and launched a survey of epidemics of chronic respiratory diseases in 13 districts in the city. The reporter of the Yangtze River Daily walked into Yan Yaqiong's office. The bookshelf of a whole wall was neatly placed in 2008 to participate in a dozen job notes in this year. Drop work and preventive results.

Substantial doctor transfer to a public guard

In 1997, Yan Yaqiong was admitted to the clinical medical major of Wuhan University Medical Department and read it according to the scheduled path. He was a prospective doctor.

When she graduated from undergraduate, she chose to apply for a graduate student of the "School of Public Health".

Why does it turn from the "front desk" of medicine to the "background"?

"Fighting and fairness, sincere nourishers", the college training of Wu Da Public Health College explained her original intention- "Guardians".

Yan Yaqiong told the Yangtze River Daily that that year (2003) was the outbreak of major infectious diseases. "Clinical medicine is a cure for the disease and saving people. We often face a person. Public health faces groups. It may carry out a health education, provide a group intervention, and promote the health lifestyle of the people. people."

Yan Yaqiong, who was deeply touched by the SARS epidemic, was determined to change his professional direction, put down the surgery knife, and held the keyboard, mouse, dossiers ... to the "invisible" battlefield, guarding the health of the masses, and the use of talents in the motherland to achieve life value.

Self -claiming data "processor"

After graduating from the PhD, Yan Yaqiong was assigned to the Chronic Disease Control System of the Wuhan Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. In the monitoring and evaluation department engaged in the monitoring of death, key chronic disease monitoring, and chronic diseases and behavioral risk factors monitoring.

The first large -scale survey was the city's cause of death in 2009. In order to ensure the objective and truth of the death data, we must carry the community with the survey tool and enter the countryside. Recalling the scene at the time, she was still vivid. "When visiting the countryside, the simple villagers drove his tractor and transported the staff of our investigation to the past and dragged from the village clinic to another village neighborhood committee."

The chronic diseases and behavioral risk factors will be carried out every 3 to 5 years, and the questionnaires are collected throughout the city. The questionnaire design has been checked in a large number of literature in the early stage and carefully consider. During the 14 years in the prevention and control of CSP, she participated in many large and small on -site investigations, or led the team guidance, or demonstrated it himself. When she was not understood, she also encouraged herself to comfort her colleagues. For more than ten years of career, she led the city's chronic disease team to run through 15 administrative districts in the city, take the streets, go to the house, and collect the most authentic survey data after the data is cleaned up, statistical, and analyzed. The crowd health survey report provides a basis for government health policies and resource allocation.

"The job of slow diseases is more behind the scenes that everyone can't see. We seem to be a data -processor". Yan Yaqiong said that when facing numbers every day, it looks unknown, but it is actually very meaningful. To understand the macro health levels such as the health status of regional population, life expectancy, mortality, death rate, and change trends, they need to analyze and conclude through micro -data analysis and conclusions. In this way, the administrative department reflects where the future prevention strategies focus should be, and at the same time, it also guides the lower -level institutions to do.

Yan Yaqiong (first from left) organized tumor cards with colleagues.

The reporter from the Yangtze River Daily followed her into the archives room of the Causes, and the staff carefully took out the 1989 death monitoring registration card. "At that time, the number of cards came out of the cards, and the number could only be achieved as much as possible."

When working at Yan Yaqiong, the use of online direct reports has improved a lot of efficiency. Now, with more effective informationization methods such as big data, you can achieve multiple seconds. "Data collection has become efficient. We need to continue to learn, keep up with the speed of new methods, new technological progress, and improve the ability to diagnose data."

Today, the city has carried out the "323" tackling action to prevent chronic disease prevention and control, and establishing the concept of great health and great health requires a larger level, a larger scope of active screening, identifies more high -risk groups through informatization and big data. The integrated service model of screening, tube, governance, and research can truly realize digital, intelligent and precise health management of patients with chronic diseases.

"Let more patients with chronic diseases live high quality"

With the improvement of the social and economic level, the process of population aging accelerates, and chronic diseases represented by cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases, cancer, respiratory diseases, and diabetes are severe and are younger.

On the one hand, the Slow Disease Institute continuously explores the technique of chronic disease prevention and control, while actively carried out mission work, and uses the national health lifestyle month, the national hypertension day, World Diabetes Day and other theme days to carry out a series of health education activities for chronic diseases to enhance the people of the people for chronic diseases. Prevent consciousness, prevent knowledge and prevent and control skills.

From 2010 to 2014, the chronic disease prevention team entered the community to conduct intervention projects for patients with hypertension: health education for residents based on health theory models, group health management and individual health intervention, strengthening exercise intervention, and continuous observation for many years, which can effectively reduce the effects, which can effectively reduce The risk of complications such as stroke, acute myocardial infarction and other complications. Yan Yaqiong attended the launching meeting of the National Health and Health Standard Amendment Project.

There are many cases in the research process that some of the same age patients with similar age, scientific diet of salt and oil reduction, rational planning exercise, regulating psychology, all aspects are well done, blood pressure controls very well, and can be harmonized. Enjoy life like a healthy person; if you do not monitor your blood pressure, do not take medicine on time, and even some lifestyles are unhealthy, you may have been in bed for a long time.

"Through our intervention pilot, Wuhan community began to have a variety of chronic disease management teams. Many self -health management teams appeared to be the first responsible person in their own health. Good habit of diet. "

Since 2012, the Institute of Children, as a professional and technical institution, has organized a free medical examination for the elderly over 65 years old in the city every two years. The number of physical examinations each year is about 400,000. Key people who participate in the key group of chronic disease health intervention and management model.

In recent years, the per capita expectations of residents in Wuhan have increased year by year, from 78.23 in 2008 to 82.15 years in 2022. "It is rejoicing that the premature mortality rate of major chronic diseases is declining year by year." Yan Yaqiong pointed out that "public health is essential to promote public health. It is to extend the life expectancy of the residents' per capita, and it is necessary to improve the quality of life of the people and improve the life expectancy of health. Make chronic diseases without occurrence, late, slower development, and less complications. This is the direction we have been working hard. "
