The problem of increasing emergency ophthalmic care for children in Guangzhou under the epidemic situation
During the epidemic period, the number of pediatric ophthalmic emergencies in Guangzhou increased significantly. This situation is mainly because the epidemic has led to changes in people's lifestyle. Children spend a long time at home learning and entertainment activities, resulting in excessive eye burden. In order to deal with this problem, we can start from the following four aspects.
Strengthen the publicity and education of children's vision protection
Parents and children do not understand the importance of children's vision protection, so relevant publicity and education need to be strengthened. Schools can add visual protection knowledge in the classroom to educate children to use electronic equipment correctly and have good eye habits. The hospital can popularize the knowledge about children's ophthalmic problems to parents through bulletin boards, WeChat public accounts and other channels, reminding them to take their children for ophthalmic examinations regularly.
In addition, parents also need to improve their awareness of vision protection. They can work with children to set reasonable eye use time and rest time, and provide children with sufficient opportunities for outdoor activities to reduce eye fatigue.
Increase the number and staffing of emergency departments of pediatric ophthalmology
As the epidemic has led to an increase in the number of emergency patients in pediatric ophthalmology, hospitals need to increase the number of relevant departments. This can relieve the pressure of patients to see a doctor and reduce the waiting time. At the same time, the hospital also needs to strengthen the manpower allocation to ensure that it can provide professional ophthalmic diagnosis and treatment services for patients in a timely manner.
In addition, the hospital can also adopt an appointment system to reasonably arrange the patient's visit time to avoid overcrowding. For some patients who are not seriously ill, remote consultation can be adopted to reduce unnecessary personnel gathering.
Promote children's eye care products
In order to help children's eyes grow healthily, some children's eye care products can be promoted on the market. These products can include eye protection lamps, eye protection devices, etc., which can effectively reduce the fatigue of children's eyes. At the same time, the hospital can also cooperate with relevant enterprises to promote children's eye care products in schools, so as to improve students' and parents' awareness of vision protection.
However, when promoting children's eye care products, attention should be paid to the safety and reliability of the products. Only products that have been strictly tested and certified can be put on the market. At the same time, correct use methods and precautions need to be provided.
Strengthen the training of children's ophthalmic diagnosis and treatment technology
With the increase in the number of pediatric ophthalmic emergencies during the epidemic, ophthalmologists in hospitals are facing greater pressure for diagnosis and treatment. Therefore, it is necessary to strengthen the relevant training of ophthalmologists and improve their diagnosis and treatment level.
The hospital can organize expert lectures, academic exchanges and other activities to share the latest pediatric ophthalmology diagnosis and treatment technology and experience. At the same time, the hospital can also cooperate with other hospitals to share resources and experience and improve the overall diagnosis and treatment level.
Summary
Among the problems of the increase of pediatric ophthalmic emergency in Guangzhou under the epidemic situation, we can solve them from four aspects: strengthening publicity and education, increasing the number of departments and staffing, promoting ophthalmic health care products, and strengthening doctor training. Through these measures, we can improve children's vision protection awareness, reduce hospital pressure, and provide better ophthalmic diagnosis and treatment services.
