Smart to do health check (2) ─ how to choose the health check project, CP highest value?

The rise of modern health awareness, not only hope to live longer, hoping to live with quality, stay away from pain and illness . In order to achieve early detection and early prevention of the disease, is to arrange regular health checks of its necessity. When we face an array of health check project, in the end how to choose a health check for their own projects, so that the limited health check budget can play the highest efficiency.

What effective health check ?

An effective health check, in addition to early detection of lesions, but also must meet the following three conditions

1. The prevalence of certain diseases and higher mortality rates , with the health check to detect extremely rare mild illness does not make sense.
2. The early detection of the lesions, to be able to eradicate by way of existing medical or effective control .
3. reasonable price , need regular follow-up screening, high prices will increase the difficulty of tracking people on a regular basis.

In addition, different genders, different ages because of the different physical conditions and living environment, health check will be required direction is very different.

We conduct a detailed analysis based on the following main cause of death for all ages and gender.
Ten people Cause of Death

"According to the Ministry of Health and Welfare announced 105 Analysis of the Chinese cause of death statistics" ( Figure I ) , malignant tumor in three age groups (25-44 years of age / 45-65 years old / 65 or more years old ) are among the top ten causes of death first place, especially in the 45-65 year-old age group, and even cancer accounted for nearly half of all causes of death (42%) , the real can not be careless. And cerebrovascular / cardiovascular disease , which accounts also increased with age and cause of death rate increased significantly, from 15% increased all the way to 25% . In addition, the two younger groups (25-44 years of age / 45-65 years old ) , chronic liver disease is also a Zhidezhuyi cause of death.


When we subdivided the ratio of cancer death for men and women ( Figure II ) , can be found in both men and women, the three major types of cancer ( lung, dirty hepatobiliary and pancreatic cancer, gastrointestinal cancer ) has been occupied more than half of cancer death. In addition, there are special men's prostate cancer ( accounting for 5% of cancer death ) , while the female breast and reproductive tract cancers is strong accounted for one fifth of all female cancer death (19%) , and the proportion of the top three cancer rather, can not be ignored.


( Figure II )
Comprehensive above, the health examination of the two main objectives should be placed at an early stage of cancer screening and cerebrovascular / detection of cardiovascular disease . And on cancer, lung cancer, hepatobiliary and pancreatic dirty cancer, gastrointestinal cancer are the three key cancer screening , in addition, men also need to prevent prostate cancer, women need special care of breast and reproductive tract cancers .
Health check project selection recommendations
Health check project CP high and low values will vary depending on each person's own situation. Such as smoking, smoke and PM2.5 polluters need lung cancer screening; chronic B / C hepatitis liver require screening; special family history, will need to check for specific organs detail; some chronic diseases ( diabetes, blood pressure, high cholesterol ) easy to have follow-up questions cardiovascular brain.
The following are selected recommendations General health check project :
1.         All ultrasonography CP values are very high , relatively low cost of ultrasound, but highly effective. Especially recommended 30 or more years old women must have regular breast ultrasound screening for breast cancer.
2.         traditional chest X ray screening for lung cancer has its limits, and only low-dose lung CT can detect early stage lung cancer.
3.         intestinal cancer screening, in addition to fecal occult blood test, the proposed regularly scheduled endoscopy .
4.         Cerebrovascular / detection of cardiovascular disease ( ultrasound, high-order imaging ) , get older, more note.
5.         In general, endoscopic examination and higher order imaging ( computer tomography, magnetic resonance angiography ) , if the previous check result is normal, the pitch of a sanity check 2-3 years .
Everyone most suitable health check mode vary, the general health examination center will be equipped with service Commissioner to provide free health check advice , suggest that you can use to pay more, to find the most suitable for them, the CP value of the highest health check mode.
