今年初,一则“中国人每年人均输液8瓶”的新闻,揭开了过度医疗的冰山一角,引发了全社会的思考。所谓过度医疗,是指医生违背医学规范和伦理准则,脱离病情实际需求,实施不恰当、不规范、不道德的医疗行为,包括过度检查、过度治疗、过度用药等。近年来,我国过度医疗现象屡禁不止,不仅浪费了医疗资源,加重了百姓负担,而且影响了医疗卫生行业的形象。过度医疗现状如何?过度医疗症结何在?如何治理过度医疗?《人民日报》记者白剑峰推出“解剖过度医疗”特别报道,追问事实真相,寻求解决之策,敬请读者关注。 At the beginning of this year, the news of the “Chinese people’s infusion of 8 bottles per capita per year” opened the tip of the iceberg of over-medical treatment and triggered the thinking of the whole society. The so-called over-medical treatment refers to doctors who violate medical norms and ethical guidelines, dissociate themselves from the actual needs of the disease, and implement inappropriate, unregulated, and unethical medical behaviors, including over-examination, over-treatment, and excessive drug use. In recent years, the phenomenon of over-medical treatment in China has continued to be banned. It not only wastes medical resources, but also aggravates the burden on the people and affects the image of the medical and health industry. What is the status of over-medical treatment? What is the cause of excessive medical treatment? How to deal with over-treatment? The People’s Daily reporter Bai Jianfeng has launched an “Anatomy Over-Use Medical Care” special report to ask the truth and seek solutions. I would like to ask readers’ attention.
