在结直肠癌(CRC)筛查中存在明显的差异。我们试图评估纽约东哈莱姆的西班牙裔人群结肠镜筛查信息的首选来源。面对面访谈是在社区站点和健康诊所对平均CRC风险、无症状的西班牙裔进行的。SPSS 16分析探讨了395名参与者的社会人口学和卫生保健变量之间的关系以及结肠镜检查信息的首选来源。最受欢迎的四个信息来源是医生/提供者、小册子、电视和说同一种语言的人。我们通过卡方分析发现,年龄(50-64岁;65岁或以上)、教育(0 - 8年级;9年级或以上)、首选语言(英语;西班牙语)和来源(美国出生;外国出生)在首选信息源方面存在显著差异。在这一不断增长的美国人口中,利用确定的信息来源偏好,可以为干预措施提供信息,以解决CRC差异这一重要的公共卫生问题。
Existing disparities are evident in colorectal cancer (CRC) screening. We sought to assess preferred sources of colonoscopy screening information among Hispanics in East Harlem, NY. Face-to-face interviews were conducted among average-risk for CRC, non-symptomatic Hispanics in community-based sites and health clinics. SPSS 16 analysis explored the relationships between sociodemographic and health care variables and preferred sources of colonoscopy information for 395 participants. The top four preferred information sources were doctor/provider, brochures, television, and from someone who speaks the same language. We found significant differences in preferred information sources by a Chi-Square analysis of age (50–64 years; 65 or older), education (0–8th grade; 9th or above), language preferred (English; Spanish), and origin (US-born; foreign-born). Using the identified preferences for sources of information among this growing segment of the US population could inform interventions to address the important public health issue of CRC disparities.
