Reported are the results of a primary eye care training programme for community-based leprosy control workers in the Republic of Korea. The 20-hour programme emphasized the detection and management of lagophthalmos (and its complications) and chronic iridocyclitis. Leprosy patients in four resettlement villages were examined independently by the health workers and an ophthalmologist. Agreement between the health workers and the ophthalmologist was good for the detection of most signs (lagophthalmos, acute iridocyclitis, and chronic iridocyclitis). Based on these preliminary results it is recommended that primary eye care be included as a part of the training for leprosy paramedical workers.
本文报告了韩国针对社区麻风病防治工作人员开展的初级眼保健培训项目的结果。这个20小时的培训项目重点在于眼睑闭合不全(及其并发症)和慢性虹膜睫状体炎的检测与管理。四个安置村的麻风病患者由卫生工作者和一名眼科医生独立进行检查。卫生工作者和眼科医生在大多数体征(眼睑闭合不全、急性虹膜睫状体炎和慢性虹膜睫状体炎)的检测上达成了良好的一致性。基于这些初步结果,建议将初级眼保健纳入麻风病辅助医疗工作者的培训内容。
