目的探讨老年脑梗死患者跌倒预防知识-信念-行为(knowledge,attitude and practice,KAP)的潜在类别及其影响因素。方法选取2022年1月-2023年6月滨州医学院附属医院神经内科收治的老年脑梗死患者231例作为调查对象,采用基本情况问卷、领...目的探讨老年脑梗死患者跌倒预防知识-信念-行为(knowledge,attitude and practice,KAP)的潜在类别及其影响因素。方法选取2022年1月-2023年6月滨州医学院附属医院神经内科收治的老年脑梗死患者231例作为调查对象,采用基本情况问卷、领悟社会支持量表、医院焦虑抑郁量表、中国版日常生活活动能力量表、老年病人参与跌倒预防知信行量表对其进行调查,采用Mplus 8.3软件对其跌倒预防KAP进行潜在剖面分析,并分析不同类别的老年脑梗死患者KAP的影响因素。结果老年脑梗死患者跌倒预防KAP得分为(96.48±23.15)分。通过潜在剖面分析,将老年脑梗死患者依据跌倒预防KAP水平分为低KAP型(9.96%)、低知识KAP型(13.85%)、中KAP型(67.97%)和高KAP型(8.22%)。无序多分类Logistic回归结果显示,年龄、文化程度、领悟社会支持、焦虑、抑郁和失能程度是老年脑梗死患者跌倒预防KAP的独立影响因素。结论老年脑梗死患者跌倒预防KAP水平较低,受到年龄、文化程度、领悟社会支持、焦虑、抑郁和失能程度影响,应结合不同跌倒预防KAP类别的老年脑梗死患者进行相应健康教育。展开更多
