前列腺癌（PrCA）是影响美国男性的最常见癌症，非洲裔美国男性的发病率在美国男性中最高。关于在医疗机构向患者提供的PrCA相关教育材料知之甚少。内容，可读性和文化敏感性的材料提供者的做法在南卡罗来纳州进行了检查。从16个一般和专业的做法，共收集了44个有关PrCA和相关的性功能障碍的教育材料。材料的内容进行了编码，并使用文化敏感性评估工具进行了评估。使用Flesch阅读容易度、Flesch-Kincaid等级水平和Gobbledygook简单测量来评估可读性。与卫生保健提供者的沟通（52.3%），PrCA治疗的副作用（40.9%），性功能障碍及其治疗（38.6%）和治疗方案（34.1%）是经常出现的。所有材料的文化敏感性得分都是可以接受的，但是，2.3%和15.9%的材料在格式和视觉信息方面表现出不可接受的文化敏感性。材料的可读性各不相同。超过一半的材料都是高中阅读水平以上的。医疗实践中可用的PrCA相关材料可能无法满足患者在内容、文化敏感性和可读性方面的需求。涉及PrCA各个方面的广泛教育材料，包括治疗方案和副作用，应以简单的语言呈现，并具有文化敏感性。
Prostate cancer (PrCA) is the most common cancer affecting men in the United States, and African American men have the highest incidence among men in the United States. Little is known about the PrCA-related educational materials being provided to patients in health-care settings. Content, readability, and cultural sensitivity of materials available in providers’ practices in South Carolina were examined. A total of 44 educational materials about PrCA and associated sexual dysfunction was collected from 16 general and specialty practices. The content of the materials was coded, and cultural sensitivity was assessed using the Cultural Sensitivity Assessment Tool. Flesch Reading Ease, Flesch-Kincaid Grade Level, and the Simple Measure of Gobbledygook were used to assess readability. Communication with health-care providers (52.3%), side effects of PrCA treatment (40.9%), sexual dysfunction and its treatment (38.6%), and treatment options (34.1%) were frequently presented. All materials had acceptable cultural sensitivity scores; however, 2.3% and 15.9% of materials demonstrated unacceptable cultural sensitivity regarding format and visual messages, respectively. Readability of the materials varied. More than half of the materials were written above a high-school reading level. PrCA-related materials available in health-care practices may not meet patients’ needs regarding content, cultural sensitivity, and readability. A wide range of educational materials that address various aspects of PrCA, including treatment options and side effects, should be presented in plain language and be culturally sensitive.
