One hundred and sixty one subjects, who came from 13 different provinces and were admitted in a drug relief hospital in Beijing, were recruited for this study. The average age of these subjects was 35.21±6.24 year old. The average numbers of years for drug addiction were 7 years, and the average numbers of drug relief treatment received in the past was 5.5 times. The level of AIDS knowledge of these subjects, including pathogenic factors, source of infection, route of transmission and preventive measures, were evaluated before and after receiving the AIDS educational training to these drug users. Our results showed that there was a statistically significant increase (P<0.01) in the knowledge of HIV infection and prevention among these subjects. Positive attitude and behavioral tendencies toward HIV prevention were also improved. Therefore, it is imperative for the medical professionals to incorporate AIDS education into drug relief treatment to achieve the maximum effect on the knowledge of AIDS and improvement of positive attitudes and behaviors toward HIV prevention among drug users.展开更多

Unfortunately, because of their health weaknesses, patients are more susceptible to foodborne illness than any other population group As match as food prepared according to less stringent hygiene's rules can infect or intoxicate more than it would be in a healthy population, as hygiene's rules must be observed in a particularly strict way, at the kitchen where meals are prepared for health care facilities. In fact, hospitals' food hygiene's rules are those who defined catering. They are made to avoid food contamination and microbial growth throughout the food chain from raw materials' delivery to the consumer. The main objective of taking the meal as a patients' tracer is to detect and study the infection's risk associated with feeding at hospital, and to provide practical tools to better manage this risk. Methodology was based on an analysis of the last six years' work concerning hygiene's audits and bacteriological analyses. The results showed that the food infectious risk has an important frequency, on one side; on another, they were used as a standard model of such risk's management.展开更多
