Recently, the news that "China Chest Pain University was established in Jinan, Shandong Province" has attracted public attention. It was reported that Chen Yuguo, vice president of Qilu Hospital, will serve as the first president. In response to this, the Shandong Provincial Department of Education responded on May 28 that the "China Chest Pain University" has not received approval from the Ministry of Education and the Shandong Provincial Department of Education. Yesterday, a reporter from the Beijing Youth Daily contacted the Propaganda Department of Qilu Hospital. The staff said that the "China Chest Pain University" is only an academic organization formed voluntarily by members of the Chest Pain Branch of the China Association for Medical Promotion, not a university. Chen Yuguo served as the first chairman, not the principal. According to reports, the academic organization has paid attention to the hot discussion among netizens and believes that the name is indeed inappropriate and has caused misunderstandings to the public, and is considering changing the name.
A few days ago, according to local media reports in Shandong, on May 26, the "China Chest Pain University" was officially established in Jinan, Shandong. Reports show that the "China Chest Pain University" is the first higher education institution in China with the goal of improving chest pain education and research. Chen Yuguo, chairman of the Chest Pain Branch of the China Medical Promotion Association and vice president of Shandong University Qilu Hospital, serves as the first president. At present, the school has three colleges, namely Chest Pain College, Antithrombotic College and Heart Failure College.
After this news was published, it attracted widespread attention. In response to this, the Shandong Provincial Department of Education responded on May 28 that the Shandong Provincial Department of Education has not approved China Chest Pain University, nor has the Ministry of Education. “It should not be a formal educational institution.”
Yesterday, A reporter from Beiqing Daily contacted Qilu Hospital of Shandong University where Chen Yuguo worked. A staff member of the hospital's publicity department said that China's "Chest Pain University" is an academic organization, and Chen Yuguo, the vice president of the hospital, only served as the first chairman. A staff member of the Propaganda Department said that they have noticed the heated discussion among netizens on the name "China Chest Pain University". The name is indeed inappropriate and has caused misunderstandings to the public. The academic organization is studying the matter of changing the name.
Chen Yuguo told the reporter of Beiqing News that the "China Chest Pain University" is not an institution of higher learning, nor does he serve as the president, but an academic institution formed spontaneously by members of the Chest Pain Branch of the China Medical Promotion Association. The organization is mainly committed to popularizing knowledge on chest pain treatment, and its targets include not only doctors, nurses and other practitioners, but also ordinary people.
According to Chen Yuguo, there are still problems with non-standard treatment of chest pain in my country, and there is an urgent need for unified and standardized clinical diagnosis and treatment. For this reason, the Chest Pain Branch of the China Medical Promotion Association has established an academic organization in this field. Chen Yuguo admitted, "Our branch did not think carefully when naming it. The name was inappropriate and caused misunderstanding to the public." The final name of the organization still needs to be further negotiated.
