For optimum Peripheral Health Service and implementation of various Vertical Public Health Programme Services, network of public Rural and Urban Health Centers with trained Specialists in General Practice (GP) is essential. Later such Specialist GPs will thus fulfill both comprehensive training and experience required for Health Management and Planning Service in the centre.  About 40%-50% of all Residential Trainings and Specialists are required in GP. There are further up to 100 to 150 possible specialties in which remaining doctors can be trained for Specialty Health Services. Though free Residential Training has numerous advantages, its shortage inside country is the bottleneck to provide above mentioned Health Services. Planning for health service delivery by at least trainee residents under supervision or appropriately trained specialists guides Residential Training’s regulations. Fulfillment of objective training criteria as its core focus is the concept now with the major role of Faculty as supervising residents to provide required service in the specialty and simultaneously updating themselves and their team for Evidence-Based Medicine practice. Similarly the need of Ambulatory Health Service and joint management of in-patients by specialists in hospitals has changed unit and bed divisions and requirements for Residential Training. Residents, already the licensed doctors, are thus providing required hospital service as indispensable part of its functional hierarchy for which they need to be paid. With such changing concepts and trends, there are some essential points in existing situation to facilitate free Residential Training inside country. For Government doctors, relevant amendment in their regulation is accordingly required.

National basic public health services (BPHSs) are important for promoting the health of rural populations. A better understanding of rural BPHSs from the viewpoint of residents utilizing the services can help health-related departments and primary health care (PHC) centers further improve rural BPHSs. By conducting a large-scale cross-sectional survey in 10 western provinces of China, the study depicts rural resident experiences with rural BPHSs. Of the 9019 participants, 59.33% and 66.48% did not receive services related to health examinations or health education in the six months prior to the survey, respectively. A total of 56.90% were satisfied with the rural BPHSs, and the mean overall satisfaction score was 3.61 ± 0.908 (out of a maximum of 5). The most satisfying domain for rural residents with BPHSs was the attitude of PHC workers, whereas rural residents with chronic diseases were the least satisfied with the health management. Satisfaction with the attitude of PHC workers was identified as the strongest determinant of rural residents’ overall satisfaction with BPHSs. This study could enlighten rural BPHSs management in China.

Use Of Health Services

Abstract The objective of this study is to describe the profile of use of primary health care services, estimated by the PNS, of the population living in households registered and not registered with the Famly Health Strategy - FHS, in the years 2013 and 2019. Cross-sectional study carried out using microdata from national health surveys 2013 and 2019. The sample originated from a master sample, consisting of a set of units from selected areas in a register..The variables sex, age, skin color, income, education, self-perceived health, home registered with the FHS, medical care in the last year, type of service you seek when you are ill were selected. The dependent variables were use of health services and use of public health services. The dependent and independent variables were described with the respective confidence interval and adjusted logistic regression was performed for each outcome analyzed. In public health services, lower income, have chronic diseases (arterial hypertension or high cholesterol), be pregnant, and having a bad self-perception of health were associated with used more health services in both periods. Living in registered households was associated with more used health services (public or private). The family health strategy is an important strategy for expanding access equally.

Public Health Challenge

Western Australia (WA), Australia's largest state by area, has one of the highest notification rates of gonorrhoea in the world. This is likely a reflection of the challenges of providing health services over a vast remote area combined with a unique set of sociocultural aspects. Despite this, microbiology can play a pivotal role in the public health management of gonorrhoea even if the primary health services are thousands of kilometres away from the laboratory. However, it requires new approaches to how diagnostic testing and laboratory surveillance are conducted and the repurposing of existing technologies to cater for novel demands. In this article I describe some of the microbiological approaches that have been undertaken in WA to help address the public health challenge of gonorrhoea. That is, facilitating the appropriate antimicrobial management of gonorrhoea in an era of increasing resistance to prevent treatment failure, timely provision of an accurate diagnosis to inform appropriate treatment, and providing molecular insights to better understand gonococcal transmission (Table 1).

The Impact

This paper summarizes the arguments and counterarguments within the scientific discussion on the factors that influence public health service. The main purpose of this research is to determine the expected indicators of pathogenic and sanogenic effects on significant risk factors of pathology among children. For achieving the research goal, the authors substantiated the models of final results for the modification of risk factors. Investigation of antenatal and genealogical factors in healthy and ill children groups was performed using a specially compiled expert assessment card and parents’ interviews. The systemic population modeling methods were applied to develop and substantiate population health management models (early diagnosis and primary prevention). Evaluation of the expected effectiveness of the N-factor program of primary prevention was carried out on a set of genealogical and antenatal factors. Conducted logical analysis of the methodology of quantitative and qualitative determination of health and the gathered experience in that respect were taken into account in developing population models of preventive effects. This study provides the identified priority directions for realizing the regional and population programs to implement them further. The authors presented the example of calculating the expected effectiveness of children’s health management by eliminating the investigated factors. The authors determine the priority directions for realizing the regional and population programs pathology based on the influence on the various elements to improve the public health services system. An example of calculating the expected effectiveness of children’s health management by eliminating these factors is given. The obtained results could be used to further research the issues associated with a prospective assessment of the program’s effectiveness in reducing the impact of antenatal and genealogical factors on children’s health.

ObjectiveTo analyse the trend change and level change of neonatal health services and neonatal mortality before and after the introduction of the Basic Public Health Service (BPHS) project in 2009.Design and settingA national longitudinal study on neonatal mortality from 1991 to 2017 and neonatal health services from 2000 to 2017 was conducted based on data extracted from the National Neonatal Mortality Surveillance System and National Health Statistic Yearbook. The segmented linear regression model was used to assess the level changes and trend changes of the outcome variables before and after the introduction of BPHS project. Pearson correlation analysis as conducted to measure association between neonatal mortality rates (NMRs) and maternal health management rates (MMRs), neonatal visit rates, respectively.Primary and secondary outcome measuresThe outcome variables were national NMR, the gap of NMR between urban and rural areas, maternal health management rate and neonatal visit rate.ResultsThe annual trend change coefficient of national NMR and the gap of NMR between urban and rural areas were −0.57 (p<0.01) and −0.49 (p<0.01) after the introduction of BPHS project, while the annual trend coefficient of the MMR and the neonatal visit rate were 1.21 (p<0.01) and 0.85 (p<0.01), respectively. The negative correlations were found between NMR and MMR (r=−0.79, p<0.01) and neonatal visit rate (r=−0.76, p<0.01).ConclusionThe BPHS project was found to be associated with increased volume of neonatal health services and reduced NMR. The design and implementation of this project may provide references to other low-income and middle-income countries.
