4成慢病患者「會怕但沒問過」 醫籲回診多問「RSV風險」

新光医院感染科医师黄建贤建议慢性病患者下次回诊时主动询问RSV风险与预防

Quick Look

调查显示约九成慢性病患者知道呼吸道疾病威胁,但近四成近两年未与医师主动讨论RSV风险。新光医院感染科医师黄建贤提醒,RSV并非婴幼儿专属,高龄者感染后也可能重症,建议慢性病患者下次回诊时主动询问预防做法。

Why It Matters

慢性病患者感染呼吸道病毒后的并发症风险高于一般人。调查显示约九成慢性病患者知道呼吸道疾病带来的威胁,但约四成患者近两年未与医师主动讨论。亚太地区门诊量大,病人与医疗人员对话时间有限。

慢性病患者感染呼吸道病毒后的并发症风险高于一般人,约九成慢性病患者知道呼吸道疾病带来的威胁,但约四成的患者近两年未与医师主动讨论。新光医院感染科主治医师黄建贤提醒,RSV等其他呼吸道疾病很容易被患者忽略,建议下次回诊时可以向医师多问一句,主动了解风险与预防做法。

慢性病患者靠着长期用药与规律追踪,才能让血糖、血压与心肺功能保持稳定,但一次呼吸道感染就可能让所有努力付诸流水。有调查显示,我国自述曾感染RSV的成人慢性病患者中,高达90%都觉得自己或身边的人健康或生活受到呼吸道病毒影响,89%受调查者担心呼吸道病毒影响病情控制。

该调查也显示,37%受访者发现感染这类呼吸道病毒时,原有慢性病症状或控制情形变差,且针对自述曾经感染呼吸道融合病毒(RSV)的受访者,有高达48%认为健康受RSV感染影响。

然而,调查也发现,病人虽然知道要担心呼吸道疫情威胁,却几乎没有主动开口咨询过医疗人员。调查数据指出,高达41%的受访者在近两年内未曾与医护人员主动讨论过RSV相关风险与预防,50岁以上受访者仅47%曾与医护人员讨论RSV,低于18至49岁族群的67%。

亚太地区的门诊量大,病人能在诊间与医疗人员对话的时间相当有限。黄建贤说,7国家地区调查发现,阻碍呼吸道感染疫苗讨论的原因当中,有56.7%至64.7%的全科及基层照护医师或者专科医师表示是「其他更急迫的医疗问题」,42.1%至58.7%表示是「看诊时间不足以开启讨论」。

黄建贤提醒,RSV并非婴幼儿专属疾病,高龄者感染后也可能面临重症,医师建议是照顾者考量是否接种呼吸道感染疫苗的重要关键,若医疗端能在慢性病例行追踪时多提醒一句,民众更有机会把对呼吸道感染的担心,转化为具体的预防行动。

对于慢性病患者与家属,黄建贤也提醒,慢性病患者感染RSV等呼吸道病毒后,可能引发肺炎等感染并发症,也让原本控制得宜的疾病急性恶化,不要等到生病后才来「认识风险」,下次回诊主动问一句RSV,也许就是把防护从认知推向行动的第一步。

Open Questions

  • 调查的样本量和具体调查机构是哪些?
  • RSV疫苗在台湾是否已获批并可供慢性病患者接种?
  • 医疗端将如何在慢性病例行追踪时纳入RSV风险讨论?
