Patients with severe chronic diseases

In recent years, the incidence rate of malignant tumors in China has been increasing year by year. In addition to the characteristics of high incidence, long treatment time, high cost and poor efficacy, malignant tumors will also cause strong psychological stress to patients, and moreover, through damaging the internal environment and neuroendocrine immune system of the body, it will cause patients to have psychological problems such as pain, anxiety, anxiety, depression, fear, doubt, depression and despair, as well as accompanied by symptoms of the vegetative nervous system and behavioral abnormalities, and even produce refusal of treatment and It even produces the idea of refusing treatment and ending life. Research shows that 50%-70% of malignant tumor patients have depression, 40%-50% have anxiety, 10%-40% have mental retardation, and at least 84% of tumor patients will have different degrees of psychological problems. With the deepening of humanistic medical concept, the requirements of tumor patients for hospitals are not only limited to diagnosis and treatment, but also they urgently need more professional rehabilitation guidance and psychological care. In this regard, Professor Dong Jingcheng, director of the Department of Integrative Medicine of Huashan Hospital, led a team to study the effects of several traditional Chinese medicines and their components on the microenvironment of tumor inflammation, etc. In addition, they have carried out research on the correlation between psychological state and tumor since 2008. The results have been published in international authoritative journals, with impact factors of 4 and 5.6 respectively. At the same time, they also cooperated with the Department of Psychiatry to introduce a psychological assessment system to objectively evaluate patients’ depression, anxiety, mania and other psychological states; systematically studied the mechanism of tonic kidney and qi and heat clearing and method prescriptions on the improvement of chronic stress state of tumor patients and their effects on tumor microenvironment inflammation and vascular neovascularization, and systematically published related articles with high impact factors. On this basis, Director Dong Jingcheng proposed to create the “Slow Disease Relative Time and Space” medical public welfare program, which mainly focuses on psychological intervention and rehabilitation guidance for patients with heavy chronic diseases such as tumors. The project aims to improve patients’ understanding of the causes, treatment, prognosis and follow-up of heavy chronic diseases such as tumors, to solve their psychological problems in a timely manner, and to guide them to adhere to long-term multidisciplinary comprehensive treatment to improve their quality of life and survival. According to Prof. Jingcheng Dong, the important mechanism of alternative medicine, including traditional medicine, to interfere with the efficacy of tumor treatment is likely to have a positive effect on the tumor microenvironment by influencing the stress mechanism and regulating the inflammation/inflammation balance of the body, which is also the scientific basis of the “Relative Time and Space of Chronic Diseases”. In addition, “Relative Time and Space for Chronic Diseases” is also an innovation and attempt to extend the medical practice from hospital to society and family. Not long ago, Director Dong Jingcheng, Dr. Du Yijie and psychiatrists jointly conducted psychological assessment and salivary index tests on patients and found that almost all patients’ depression and anxiety improved to different degrees after psychological intervention and rehabilitation training, and more than half of the patients’ internal stress, depression and anxiety indexes dropped to normal levels. The content of this year’s new “Chronic Disease Relative Time” is richer and more practical than last year’s. It is subdivided into primary and intermediate classes according to patients’ demands, with the primary class continuing the essence of previous classes, mainly using cognitive-behavioral therapy for psychological intervention; the intermediate class introduces more in-depth internationally recognized alternative medicine therapies, with professional teachers teaching Guided therapy, meditation therapy, music therapy, dance therapy, painting therapy, etc., so that patients can receive more detailed and personalized treatment, and deeply care for the physical and mental rehabilitation of patients with chronic diseases. In clinical practice, Director Dong Jingcheng is also good at combining the respective strengths of Chinese and Western medicine for the treatment of common diseases and difficult miscellaneous diseases with repeated success, especially in the diagnosis and treatment of common diseases of the respiratory system (such as asthma, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, pneumonia, lung cancer, diffuse interstitial lung lesions, pulmonary fibrosis, bronchiectasis, tuberculosis and pulmonary heart disease, etc.), which has achieved remarkable efficacy and produced a wide social impact; in the treatment of common tumors (such as In the treatment of common tumors (such as lung cancer, breast cancer, gastrointestinal tumors and brain tumors, etc.), Director Dong Jingcheng has adopted a multidisciplinary integrated systemic treatment approach, which has achieved significant efficacy, improved patient survival quality and extended survival period.
