摘要
当前,新型冠状病毒肺炎疫情防控工作进入关键时期。绝大部分患者均以发热和/或咳嗽等呼吸道症状首发,但部分患者伴有腹泻症状甚至没有症状。根据最新的研究结果,该病毒不仅感染呼吸系统,而且也能感染消化系统,经消化道感染可能是一种重要途径。为此,本团队建议应扩大新型冠状病毒感染患者的筛查范围,在非发热门诊及住院部,对以腹泻等消化系统症状就诊的患者进行流行病学调查,以发现可能漏查的感染者,为更加积极高效地控制新型冠状病毒的传播,尤其是控制院内传播提供科学依据。
At present,the prevention and control of the coronavirus disease has entered a critical stage. Most patients started with respiratory symptoms such as fever and/or cough,but some of them had diarrhea or even no symptoms. According to the current finding,the virus can infect not only the respiratory system,but also the digestive system. For this reason,we suggest that we should expand the screening scope of patients with 2019 novel coronavirus infection,and carry out epidemiological investigation on patients with diarrhea and other digestive system symptoms in non-febrile outpatient and inpatient departments. It will help to find patients who may have missed diagnosis,and also can provide scientific basis for more active and efficient control of the transmission of 2019 novel coronavirus,especially in hospital.
