新北市安泰淞鶴診所因多項缺失爆發C肝群聚事件,衛福部醫事司進行專案調查並公布初步報告。
新北市安泰淞鶴診所日前因為多項缺失,爆出C肝群聚事件,衛福部醫事司近期公布初步調查報告,發現診所有9項缺失,醫事司副司長劉玉菁表示,這次案件中,診所的負責醫師並未盡到醫療機構管理責任,其他細節會再發布「醫療事故專案調查報告」正式公布。
醫事司近期公布新北市安泰淞鶴診所C肝群聚感染事件醫療事故專案調查初步報告,報告內容指出,新北市板橋區2名同住家人確診C型肝炎,且經疫調發現2人曾前往安泰淞鶴診所施打營養針。
此外,2025至2026年新北市急性C型肝炎確診者有9人具有該診所注射曝露史,且病毒核酸序列相似度高達99.7%至100%,有高度親源性關係。
經疾管署與新北市政府衛生局分別於今年8月20日及26日無預警至安泰淞鶴診所進行查核,發現該診所有多項缺失,包括接觸病人前後未落實手部衛生、針頭留置於藥瓶的橡皮軟塞上(包含點滴),重複使用取藥、診所內未見廢棄尖銳物品收集桶等9項缺失。
報告指出,這次事件經初步調查,安泰淞鶴診所存在系統性問題,負責醫師受僱但未負責診所營運且無實質管理,醫護人員對於感染管制與無菌操作概念認知不足,新北市政府衛生局會停止該診所所有業務,並複查到合格為止,事件其他細節會再以「醫療事故專案調查報告」正式公布。
劉玉菁表示,「醫療法」規範,醫療機構應置負責醫師1人,對其機構醫療業務,負督導責任,專家小組於9月9日前往診所實地調查,並具實際情況撰寫調查報告,而該診所負責醫師並未負起醫療機構管理責任,且並未清楚自己應盡責任,有推託的情況。
不過,劉玉菁強調,初步調查報告中,負責醫師未落實應盡事宜,醫事司依據法規進行要求與處分,目前公布的僅是初步報告,最終報告預計於11月底完成,釐清系統性原因,並於報告發布後6個月持續追蹤,而目前該診所仍在停業中,確認改善沒問題才能復業。

Hong Kong is enhancing health surveillance for arrivals after a laboratory worker at an anti-plague institute in Russia died from pneumonia. The WHO reports no evidence of ongoing transmission, and Hong Kong authorities state the local risk remains low.

Around 9 per cent of stroke and heart failure cases in Hong Kong could be prevented over the next decade via a government co-care scheme, according to a University of Hong Kong projection.

Wayne, a food and agriculture expert, cited research from Johns Hopkins University and pointed out that people with lower bone density have faster declines in brain white matter and overall cognitive scores, and the correlation is more obvious in patients with diabetes. Studies speculate that bone and brain degeneration may be affected by common metabolic factors such as insulin resistance and dyslipidemia.

Beijing-educated former US FDA official Li Zili has been appointed to lead Hong Kong's new Centre for Medical Products Regulation under a three-year term starting October 20.

A large medical study covering more than 90,000 people showed that people who sleep longer in the rapid eye movement period are associated with a lower risk of 83 diseases including dementia, Parkinson's disease and heart failure. Experts point out that this is an observational study and sleep abnormalities may also be an early warning sign of the disease.

A study involving nearly 200,000 people and followed for 34 years found that cereal fiber and fruit fiber can significantly reduce the risk of diabetes, but excessive intake of starchy vegetable fiber increases the risk by 11%. Studies have pointed out that if starchy vegetables such as potatoes, sweet potatoes, and yams are used as a supplement rather than a replacement for staple foods, they can easily lead to excess carbohydrates, and cooking methods such as frying will offset the benefits of fiber. The truly effective sugar-control vegetables are non-starchy vegetables such as green leafy vegetables and broccoli. It is recommended to prefer whole grains and whole fruits and use light cooking methods to stabilize blood sugar.
