江西省6个不同类型疫区村居民血吸虫病健康教育效果评价

EVALUATION ON EFFECTS OF HEALTH EDUCATION ON SCHISTOSOMIASIS CONTROL AMONG INHABITANTS IN SIX ENDEMIC VILLAGES OF JIANGXI PROVINCE

在江西省６个疫区村，其中４个村单纯应用视听技术对居民进行血防健康教育，另外２个村除用上述方法进行血防健康教育外，还进行了环境改造。教育干预后，各村居民血防知识及格率和血防态度正确率均显著提高，娱乐性疫水接触率均明显下降。健康教育结合环境改造的２个村居民血吸虫感染率显著下降；单纯健康教育的４个村居民血吸虫感染率未见下降。分析了教育干预后居民血吸虫感染率未下降的原因，阐述了现阶段居民血防健康教育的可行目标，并对所用的信息传播方式进行了初步评价。

In order to evaluate the effects of health education on schistosomiasis control,six endemic villages of Jiangxi Province were selected as fields for study. In four villages,only health education by video listening and technical training was carried out,while in the rest two villages,environmental modification was performed besides health education. After health education,the proportion of the villagers with qualified knowledge and correct attitude to schistosomiasis control increased significantly,while the proportion of residents contacting infested water for amusement was reduced remarkably. In the two villages where environmental modification was carried out, the infection of schistosoma among population was reduced significantly,but in other four villages without environmental modification,the prevalence was not significantly reduced. In this paper,the reasons why the prevalence was not reduced in the above mentioned four villages after health education were analyzed. Through this study,the practicable objectives of present health education of inhabitants were put formard,and the role of the ways for information transmission on health education was also preliminarily evaluated.
