中国建立男性包皮环切手术标准化和培训的重要性

The Need for High-Quality Training and Surgical Standards for Adult Male Circumcision in China

尽管HIV在非洲的大流行仍然是一个严重的问题,而在其他地区,如亚洲和南美洲,HIV感染率也正在迅速上升。国际健康组织已经认识到有必要制定有效的策略来检测和控制全球HIV的传播。研究表明,男性包皮环切能显著降低HIV、人乳头状瘤病毒(HPV)、单纯疱疹病毒2型(HSV-2)和其他性传播疾病(STD)的感染率。虽然男性包皮环切技术有许多,但是没有标准化的手术方案和培训计划。研究表明,男性包皮环切技术的标准化与培训计划的实施可以大大降低并发症发生率。并发症发生率高是实施男性包皮环切服务的一个主要障碍。我们建议,在推广男性包皮环切之前应建立手术标准和培训计划。

Although HIV is a significant problem in Africa, HIV infection rates are rising rapidly in other regions such as Asia and South America. International health organizations have recognized the need to develop effective strategies to check the worldwide transmission of HIV. Studies have demonstrated the significant reduction of HIV, HPV, HSV-2 and other STD infection rates with male circumcision （MC）. Although numerous MC techniques are available, there are no standardized protocols and surgical training programs. Studies have shown that the standardization of MC techniques coupled with training programs can significantly reduce complication rates. High complication rates have been a primary obstacle to the implementation of MC services. We recommend the establishment of surgical standards and training protocols prior to the promotion of MC services in China.
