Evaluation of Infectious Disease Prevention and Control Ability of Medical Buildings in Harbin, China

Abstract

Objective: Entrusted by the Harbin Municipal Government, evaluation medical building system for prevention and control of sudden infectious diseases in the city has been established. Background: China, as a country that found the COVID-19 earlier, has taken strict control measures. However, as the medical building system is not perfect enough to prevent and control sudden infectious diseases. Method: First, expert group methodology was used and evaluation index of ability of prevention and control of sudden infectious diseases in medical building system was selected; then fuzzy comprehensive evaluation was adopted to establish index set and to set weight and medical building system evaluation model for prevention and control of sudden infectious diseases was constructed; finally, it’s to modify the indicators and weights in the evaluation set and to make an evaluation of the ability of Harbin medical building system to prevent and control sudden infectious diseases in accordance with the current management mode of system. Results: The medical building system in Harbin is significantly unbalanced in its ability to prevent sudden infections where there are low indicators for response monitoring and forecasting terminals, there are high indicators for the construction of emergency center. Conclusions: The evaluation model of the ability of medical building system to prevent and control sudden infectious diseases was constructed. The model is adopted to make practical evaluation of infectious disease prevention and control ability in Harbin and to form the evaluation method of the direct connection between the theoretical research of medical architecture and medical building design.

Using Fuzzy Comprehensive Evaluation to Assess the Competency of Full-Time Water Conservancy Emergency Rescue Teams

“…Methods of emergency rescue measures and competency assessments include the analytic hierarchy process (AHP) [22,23], fuzzy comprehensive evaluation [24,25], TOPSIS comprehensive evaluation [9,26], the catastrophe progression method [27], cloud model [28], multiple correspondence analysis [29], etc. Among these, AHP and fuzzy comprehensive evaluation have been used to study emergency rescue in more detail.…”

“…The life-cycle approach is a crisis management theory based on four stages of a process, and it is conducive to the management and control of a whole event [38]. However, most studies have been based on relevant documents [24,30], event characteristics [22], expert opinions [7,25], etc. Due to the lack of theoretical basis, systematization and scientificity need to be improved.…”
