1. Who needs a physical examination most?
Experts suggest that health examination is the most effective means to prevent diseases, and there are three groups of people who should have regular health examinations.
The first kind of people are white-collar workers.
A data shows that among more than 4,000 white-collar workers aged 3 1-60, the incidence of fatty liver is as high as 12.9%, the prevalence of obesity is 3 1.6%, the prevalence of hyperlipidemia is 12.8%, and the prevalence of coronary heart disease is 3.1. The analysis shows that the prevalence of fatty liver and hyperlipidemia in white-collar workers is higher than that in the whole population, which may be because white-collar workers often eat too much food, snacks, supper and other irregular diets, which disturb their normal metabolism and provide conditions for the onset of fatty liver and obesity. If you do a serious physical examination every year, these diseases can be found early and treated in time, which can effectively prevent further fibrosis and hardening of the liver and prevent liver damage.
The second kind of people are sub-healthy people over 40 years old.
According to age, 18-40-year-old population shows a slow upward trend with the increase of age, but the proportion of latent disease state suddenly rises over 40 years old, and more and more people have obvious disease symptoms around 55 years old. After middle age, sub-health became obvious, and the pace of slipping into disease accelerated rapidly. Middle-aged people who shoulder the heavy responsibilities of career and family should never underestimate the sub-health status, otherwise, in the near future, one-third of these people will suffer from cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases in two dead, one-tenth will die from tumors, one-fifth will die from lung disease and diabetes, and there will be overwork and accidents, and only one-tenth will hope to enjoy a natural life.
The third kind of people have chronic diseases.
Patients with chronic diseases refer to those who have already suffered from cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases, diabetes, hepatitis, asthma, stomach diseases, etc. Under the treatment of doctors, they may be temporarily relieved, but they will never be cured once and for all. Therefore, these patients should still be followed up and examined regularly. Diabetes patients should check their blood sugar at least once a month to see if there are any complications. Patients with hepatitis B should have a B-ultrasound examination of the liver once every six months, so as to find liver lesions as soon as possible. Patients with gastropathy should have a gastroscopy once a year to know their own condition development in time and adjust their medication in time to achieve the best treatment effect.
2. Precautions for physical examination
1. Physical examination should be conducted under the guidance of a doctor. In the physical examination, there are not a few people who "cut meals" at will according to their feelings or experiences. Experts believe that you can't reduce items at will according to your own feelings. It is experts who design packaging projects. According to their professional knowledge and clinical experience, they worked out the most scientific and comprehensive sports. Such a project can find problems most effectively. So it's best to check according to the set meal, and don't cut down on meals at will. For example, some people feel uncomfortable or shy, and often ask for omission. But in fact, a small anal finger examination is a simple and easy method to check rectal cancer. Many early rectal cancers were discovered by anal finger examiners. Therefore, medical examiners must check one by one according to the requirements, and some people reduce their appetite because of "too much trouble". Xiao Wang, 23, has a physical examination this year. Xiao Wang explained, "I don't think there is anything wrong with me. It's too much trouble to go to the hospital for examination! " So run! "
Please take a bath and change clothes the day before the physical examination, and keep your body clean and hygienic, so as to obtain accurate physical examination results.
3. Stop eating (including drinking water and taking medicine). ) After 8: 00 pm on the first day of physical examination, blood samples were taken on an empty stomach that morning.
4. Please don't have a physical examination for female subjects during menstruation.
Please take the doctor's advice seriously and review, follow-up or further check and treatment in time.
Experts pointed out. Physical examination is not a one-time examination, and the service after physical examination should also keep up and do a good job in follow-up. Experts from Shanghai Marriott Hospital will provide standardized health assessment reports and medical guidance for medical examinees for their reference.
Health assessment includes many aspects, such as lifestyle assessment, assessing the rationality of dietary structure and rest habits of physical examination participants; List of risk factors, pick out the risk figures in the physical examination results and point out the possible consequences; Risk assessment of illness, combining the diet and family history of the medical examiner to put forward the possibility of illness; After summarizing the above indicators, the doctor will also give suggestions for health improvement, reminding the medical examiner to pay attention to various aspects such as diet and daily life.
3. Misunderstanding of physical examination
Myth 1: I think physical examination is for the elderly.
Experts pointed out: Nowadays, people's life and work are under great pressure, and with the influence of bad living habits such as smoking, drinking and staying up late, some diseases that used to occur frequently among the elderly also tend to be younger. Young people often think that they are in good health, and physical examination is only needed by elderly people. Once you have a physical examination, you will find that young people have many problems. Regular physical examination is related to the health of people of all ages, and young people cannot ignore it.
Myth 2: I think there is no worry about physical examination for three to five years.
Many people often feel that everything is normal after physical examination. I think the results can be managed for a long time, and there is no need for physical examination for three to five years.
Experts pointed out: We should realize that our body is a dynamic system, and subtle changes are constantly taking place every day. Physical examination results have no long-term significance, and can even be changed within a few months. Because some diseases develop rapidly, the symptoms are not obvious and it is difficult to detect. Once you realize that you may have missed the best treatment opportunity. Physical examination should be carried out regularly, because its purpose is to find diseases in time, and timely detection is the key to achieve good therapeutic effect, which is the real significance of physical examination.
Myth 3: I think computer instruments can see more accurately than doctors' palpation and consultation.
At the entrance of the consultation room related to physical examination in the hospital, we can often see such a phenomenon: the examination rooms such as fluoroscopy and ultrasound are crowded, but the doctors sitting in the consultation room are much deserted.
Experts pointed out: only believing in instrument testing will miss many possibilities of finding diseases. The instrument cannot comprehensively consider the patient's medical history, symptoms and other factors like doctors. It is always auxiliary, and the final diagnosis still depends on the human brain. Moreover, most diseases can only be discovered after detailed consultation and palpation by doctors. The doctor's rich clinical experience, coupled with the accurate detection of instruments, is conducive to the correct diagnosis of diseases.
Myth 4: Physical examination reports are thrown at will.
Many people throw away the medical report after seeing the results, thinking that since there is no problem, there is no need to keep it.
Experts pointed out that people's physical examination results last year and this year may be normal, but if one of the indicators has changed greatly, we should pay attention to it because there may be a tendency to a certain disease. After comparing the physical examination results at different times, doctors will find the changes of someone's physical condition in the past year, which is conducive to timely diagnosis or prevention. Therefore, the physical examination report should be kept well and not thrown around.
Myth 5: Physical examination is blind and expensive.
The price of physical examination has always been a concern of everyone. Some medical examiners have better financial ability, and it is understandable that they want to have a more comprehensive and thorough one-time examination and choose a higher-priced package. Higher-priced packages usually contain a full set of indicators.
Under normal circumstances, it is recommended that the medical examiner start with the basic package, and if there are problems with important indicators, then do a full set of examinations to further diagnose. Ordinary people don't need to choose particularly high-end instruments. Personal physical examination generally chooses 300-400 project packages to find out the basic situation of your body.
Myth 6: Physical examination aggravates psychological stress.
Many people think that it is better to be confused than to find out a serious illness and cause psychological pressure and mental burden. But experts remind this group of people that early detection and early treatment is the best way to solve diseases such as tumors.
The survey report of the World Health Organization Cancer Advisory Committee shows that 1/3 tumors can be prevented; 1/3 tumor can be found early and treated effectively early; 1/3the patients with advanced cancer can prolong their life and improve their quality of life through treatment. According to experts, about 1/4 cancer patients in China can live for more than 5 years, and this proportion is higher in Shanghai, reaching 1/3.
Diseases found through physical examination are generally early, so timely treatment, "terminal illness" is likely to be "rescued"! And economically, early treatment is more economical than late treatment.
I hope it will help you and be adopted. Thank you.
