健康教育对血吸虫病患病因素的影响分析

Effect of Suffering from Schistosomiasis to Targets' Knowledge, Attitude and Practise in Schistosomiasis Control

为期1年的问卷法对有血吸虫病诊治史实验组和对无血吸虫病史(对照组)的两组人群的前瞻性研究结果表明,实验组对血吸虫病临床症状和晚期危害性认识率明显高于对照组(P<0.01),对血吸虫病的传染源、传播途径、远期影响的认识及消灭血吸虫病信心,两组无显著差异。提示个体患病对其本人改变导致血吸虫病危险行为作用不大,也不能引起社会更多关注和重视。作者认为:控制血吸虫病在防治措施中应强化对靶人群的健康教育。

The prospective study on the effect suffering from the disease to the targets' knowledge, attitude and practice in schistosomiasis control was carried out by questionaire for a year. The subject was divided in two groups, one with the history of the disease (the pilot group) and the other without the history (the control group). The results showed that the proportion of knowing clinical symptoms of the disease and extent of harms of advanced schistosomiasis in the pilot group was higher than that in the control group obviously (P<0. 01). And there was no. significant difference between two groups on knowledge of infection sources, pattern of infection, further effect and confidence of elimination of the disease. It prompted that targets' suffering from the disease couldn't obviously modify their behavious which caused the disease and take society more cares and attention. Summarily, health education for targets plays an important role in control schistosomiasis beside another efficient control measures.
