Do you still need a physical examination after being positive?

Recently, many COVID-19-infected people found that they always felt chest tightness, shortness of breath and fatigue after "Yang Kang", and they were worried about various functions of their bodies, especially heart and lung functions, after being infected with COVID-19. The entrance of the hospital CT room is also overcrowded, and radiology medical staff in many hospitals in Huzhou and Nanchang have started working 24 hours a day.

In order to relieve the pressure of departments and patients' anxiety, some public hospitals have launched "Yang Kang Physical Examination Package". Medical institutions such as Ruici Physical Examination, Mei Nianda Health and Aikang have also launched physical examination packages for the "Yang Kang" population, with prices ranging from several hundred yuan to three thousand yuan.

The reporter of 265438+20th Century Business Herald found that the contents of these medical examination packages basically include lung CT, cardiac color Doppler ultrasound and myocardial enzyme detection by browsing the official WeChat account of the above-mentioned medical examination institutions. Among them, Aikang not only has a comprehensive physical examination package to prevent COVID-19's sequela, but also has a detailed physical examination package for "Yang Kang" people, such as immune evaluation, cardiac function evaluation, special screening of lung depth and so on.

However, it is worth noting that not all "yang" people need physical examination, and frequent exposure to CT rays is also harmful to the human body. Li Jun, director of the Department of Infectious Diseases of Jiangsu Provincial Hospital, said, "After Yang Kang, if the patient's blood oxygen saturation is abnormal and he really feels unwell, he can go to the hospital for necessary examination, but in the absence of special physical symptoms, the patient can rest at home. In the current busy medical institutions, there is no need to rush to the peak of infection for unnecessary medical examinations. "

In addition, if a physical examination is really needed, preparations should be made according to the precautions suggested by the hospital or the physical examination institution before the physical examination to avoid errors in the results of the physical examination.

Many hospitals and institutions have launched the "Yang Kang" physical examination package.

The Physical Examination Center of the First Affiliated Hospital of Zhejiang University School of Medicine launched the "Yang Kang Physical Examination Package" with a price of 2,500 yuan. The examination items include blood pressure, pulse, blood oxygen saturation monitoring, general examinations in internal medicine, surgery, ophthalmology, otolaryngology, stomatology, etc., as well as blood routine, C-reactive protein (which can be used to judge whether bacterial virus infection occurs), urine routine, liver and kidney lipid electrolytes, myocardial enzyme spectrum, D- dimer, etc.

The Second Affiliated Hospital of Shandong First Medical University has also launched two kinds of "Yang Kang Physical Examination Packages", the prices of which are 480 yuan and 877 yuan respectively. According to a doctor in the hospital, "This is a discount price. The number of people making appointments in these two days has gradually increased, about 50 people a day. At present, there is no need to queue up for medical examination at the medical examination center. "

265438+20th Century Business Herald reporter called Guangzhou General Hospital of Qianhai Life Insurance to inquire about the package of "Yang Kang Physical Examination". The staff of the hospital said, "At present, the hospital only has a set of" Yang Kang Physical Examination "package of 67 1 yuan, including eight items of liver function, six items of heart function, three items of kidney function, blood routine, routine electrocardiogram and chest CT, which are suitable for all ages." Subsequently, the reporter called the physical examination center of the hospital. The staff of the physical examination center said, "There have been many CT scans of the lungs recently, and there may be a queue. The exact time is still uncertain. The medical report is expected to come out in two or three days. " She also reminded, "Don't drink or eat at 10 the night before the physical examination, rest early at night, and try to draw blood at the physical examination center between 8: 00 and 10 the next morning."

In addition, the hospital also launched the Yang Kang Children's Physical Examination Package. The staff of Shanghai Children's Hospital told 2 1 Century Business Herald: "At present, there are two kinds of packages for children in Yang Kang, namely basic package and special package. Choose which one can be judged after the diagnosis of the hospital doctor. The two packages have no restrictions on the age of the child. "

Applicable people and matters needing attention in "Yang Kang" physical examination

Recently, keywords such as "myocarditis" and "white lung" frequently appeared in hot searches in Weibo, leaving many netizens in a state of anxiety, worried that the cardiopulmonary function would be damaged after being infected with COVID-19. And going to the hospital for examination has become their main way to relieve anxiety.

However, Rao Yolanda, director of the Health Management Center of Zhejiang Hospital and deputy director of oncology department, said that not all patients with "Yang Kang" need physical examination. "These symptoms are caused by viruses, and it will take some time for virus removal and body repair. At this time, for some specific groups, such as the elderly (over 60 years old), or complicated with their own basic diseases (diabetes, cancer, coronary heart disease, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, etc.). ), it is still necessary to carry out relevant physical examination and evaluation, which is mainly used to judge whether the first round of infection has caused damage to functions such as heart and lung and guide subsequent related rehabilitation.
