The Capital Institute of Pediatrics uses advanced technology to detect pathogens for more than a thousand children

When a child with a fever has a fever, the doctor takes a “throat swab” specimen and can get the result within half an hour of the examination. On January 14th, it was learned from the Capital Institute of Pediatrics that since December 2017, the pathogen detection and monitoring platform for children's viral infections has carried out pathogen detection for more than a thousand children with acute respiratory infections, which was formulated for the health and family planning department. The flu prevention and control strategy provides detailed clinical scientific data.

At the beginning of December 2017, the Virus Research Laboratory of the Capital Institute of Pediatrics initiated rapid influenza virus antigen detection. When the child visits the doctor, the doctor takes the “throat swab” specimen and can get the result within half an hour of the test to determine whether it is infected with influenza A or B virus. The detection of influenza virus positive results can provide a reliable pathogen basis for clinicians, while the test results are negative, then enter the respiratory virus pathogen detection. This test expands the scope of the virus. In addition to influenza A and B, it also includes viral pathogens common in children with respiratory syncytial virus, adenovirus, parainfluenza virus 1, 2, and 3.

The surveillance of viral pathogens in children with acute respiratory infections in the first child showed that the positive rate of influenza virus infection in children with acute respiratory infections increased gradually since December 2017, although the overall influenza A virus was the main, but the overall influenza A virus, but Further subtype identification results showed that the detection rate of type B Yamagata was higher than that of type A H1N1. In addition, respiratory syncytial virus also accounts for a high proportion of children with acute respiratory infections in outpatients, especially in critically ill children. This test result provides a scientific and scientific basis for the development of the National Health and Family Planning Commission's influenza prevention and control strategy.

It is understood that "flu" is different from "cold" and is two completely different diseases. "Influenza" is a systemic disease mainly caused by influenza virus infection involving the upper respiratory tract. The pathogens are influenza A, B, and C viruses; "cold" is mainly caused by respiratory syncytial virus, rhinovirus, adenovirus, coronary Upper respiratory tract infection caused by viruses and parainfluenza viruses. How to distinguish between the flu and the common cold depends on the pathogen test. Due to the huge economic and social costs, most hospitals do not carry out pathogen testing. Instead, some sentinel medical institutions in the disease control department conduct influenza pathogen monitoring to determine the development trend of the influenza epidemic.
