You'an experts bring hope for the cure of hepatitis B patients in Baoding People's Hospital
2024-07-29
On July 25, the test results of positive hepatitis B B virus examination of 3-year-old children in Baoding showed that their hepatitis B B virus DNA had turned negative. Although it has not reached the clinical cure standard, it is developing in a positive direction. Yangyang's mother said that three months ago, she took her 3-year-old son to the hepatitis B Clinical Cure Clinic of Baoding People's Hospital. Because she was a patient of hepatitis B, the child found HBsAg positive and HBeAg positive in the kindergarten physical examination, commonly known as "Big Three Yang". The parents intended to take their children to Beijing for further diagnosis and treatment. After many inquiries, they learned that Beijing You'an Hospital had set up a clinical cure clinic for hepatitis B in Baoding People's Hospital. Director Cao Zhenhuan held a temporary post in Baoding People's Hospital and took a seat in the hospital, so he started hepatitis B treatment at his home. She sincerely felt the convenience of being able to see experts from the capital without leaving her home, which is also a benefit for the local people to enjoy the coordinated development of Beijing Tianjin Hebei. After a face-to-face consultation with the child, Director Cao Zhenhuan developed an individual diagnosis and treatment plan based on their actual situation. After 3 months of treatment, the child achieved good therapeutic effects. It is understood that with the popularization of hepatitis B vaccine and the implementation of the mother infant blocking strategy, the prevalence of HBsAg among children in China has declined significantly. However, due to the large population base, there are still a large number of infants and young children infected with HBV virus every year. As age increases, the incidence of adverse events such as cirrhosis and liver cancer also increases. "Grass roots doctors dare not treat and cannot treat" is one of the significant problems in the treatment of hepatitis B in children at present. First of all, the awareness of children with hepatitis B is insufficient. Most doctors believe that children with hepatitis B have a mild illness, and they recommend observation. However, medical institutions lack specialized clinics and physicians for pediatric liver disease, and there is a lack of experience in applying dosages of relevant drugs to children. Furthermore, doctors and parents are concerned about the safety and adverse reactions of antiviral therapy. In order to delay the progress of hepatitis B disease in children and promote clinical cure, in March 2024, China issued the Expert Consensus on the Treatment of hepatitis B B in Children, recommending that children with chronic hepatitis B who are HBeAg positive or HBeAg negative, regardless of size, should receive antiviral treatment after obtaining the informed consent of their guardians. On May 18, 2024, Academician Wang Fusheng proposed at the "Sixth Academic Conference on Clinical Cure of Chronic hepatitis B" that it is of great significance to treat children with antiviral therapy as soon as possible and avoid chronicity for clinical cure. Recent studies have shown that the younger children with chronic hepatitis B are, the better the treatment effect will be. On July 27, 2023, the unveiling ceremony of the Hepatobiliary Disease Center of Beijing You'an Hospital (Baoding) affiliated to Capital Medical University was held at Baoding People's Hospital. Beijing You'an Hospital fully supports Baoding People's Hospital in improving its diagnosis and treatment service capabilities for liver and gallbladder diseases. Nine clinical medical technology department directors, including critical illness, digestion, and liver disease, have been appointed as the corresponding department directors of Baoding People's Hospital, creating the Beijing You'an Hospital (Baoding) Liver and Gallbladder Disease Center and building a high-quality medical service platform for the entire life cycle of liver and gallbladder diseases. In November 2023, Cao Zhenhuan, the doctoral supervisor of Beijing You'an Hospital, as the temporary vice president of Baoding People's Hospital, took the lead in opening a hepatitis B cure clinic, creating a hepatitis B clinical cure center in Baoding, and providing standardized diagnosis and treatment, personalized services, and treatment programs and medical services for hepatitis B patients with full course management. The establishment of the center has also successfully solved the current treatment situation of children with hepatitis B who "dare not treat, can not treat", bringing hope for the cure of children with hepatitis B in Baoding.
