健康素养已成为一个重要的公共卫生问题。采用多阶段整群随机抽样方法,共抽取12450人。使用2009年中国健康素养问卷,参与者被分为健康素养状况较差或不差的组。确定了6个卫生知识普及领域的知识普及率,结果如下:科学健康观(60.0%),预防急性传染病的识字率(66.8%),预防非传染性慢性病的识字率(51.9%)、安全和急救(66.8%)、获得和利用基本医疗保健(55.3%)和全面健康知识普及(52.5%)。多因素Logistic回归分析显示,居住在农村、家庭人口少、年龄小、文化程度低、农业或农村外来务工人员、家庭收入低与健康素养状况差相关。我们的研究结果支持使用健康教育和促进干预措施,以提高中国这一高危人群的健康素养。
Health literacy has become an important public health concern. Multistage cluster random sampling was used to select 12 450 individuals. Using the 2009 Chinese Health Literacy questionnaire, participants were divided into groups with poor or not poor health literacy status. The knowledge rates for 6 areas of health literacy were determined with the following results: science concept of health (60.0%), literacy for preventing acute infectious disease (66.8%), literacy for preventing noncommunicable chronic disease (51.9%), safety and first aid (66.8%), obtaining and making use of basic medical care (55.3%), and comprehensive health literacy (52.5%). Multiple logistic regression showed that living in a rural area, fewer individuals in a household, younger age, low education, agricultural or rural migrant occupation workers, and low family income were associated with a poor health literacy status. Our results support the use of health education and promotion interventions to improve health literacy in this high-risk population in China.
