麻风受累者活动受限及安全认知的评估

Assessment activity limitation and safety awareness in people affected by leprosy

目的:评价麻风受累者对活动受限和预防残疾的安全认知。方法:采用行动受限和安全认知筛查量表(SALSA)对125例麻风受累者进行问卷调查。结果:125例麻风受累者眼手足畸残分数(EHF score)平均为5.1,平均SALSA分数为29.8。当EHF分数小于5时,SALSA平均分数少于30;EHF分数等于或大于5时,SALSA平均分数为39.23。受累者EHF分数与SALSA分数呈正相关(P<0.001)。本组绝大多数麻风受累者几乎没有建立安全认知。结论:SALSA分数越高麻风受累者活动越受到限制。SALSA筛查问卷可用于现场对麻风受累者进行活动受限和安全认知进行初步评估。

Objective： To assess the activity limitation and the safety awareness for preventing disability in people affected by leprosy. Methods： The activity limitation and the safety awareness in 125 people affected by leprosy were surveyed with the questionnaire Screening of Activity Limitation ＆ Safety Awareness （SALSA）. Results： The average eye, hand ＆ foot score （EHF score） was 5.1. The SALSA score varied from 11 to 77 with a mean of 29.8. When EHF score was below 5, the average SALSA score lower than 30; when EHF score was equalor higher than 5, the average SALSA score 39.2, the EHF score was positively correlated with SALSA score （ P 〈 0.01）. Vast majority of these people affected by leprosy did not have the knowledge on safety awareness. Conclusion： Higher SALSA scores reflect increase in activity limitation. SALSA questionnaire can be used to screen and assess the activity limitation and the safety awareness for people affected by leprosy.
