这项研究旨在确定生活在孟加拉国的受试者中与新冠肺炎预防性健康习惯相关的知识、态度和行为水平以及对新冠肺炎的恐惧感知。设计：前瞻性横断面调查(n=2157)，研究对象为居住在孟加拉国的13-88岁男女受试者。方法：在研究开始前获得伦理批准和试验注册。自愿参与并签署知情同意书的受试者被纳入研究，并完成了KAP和新冠肺炎恐惧量表(FCV-19S)的结构化问卷。结果：28%(28.69%)的受试者报告了一种或多种新冠肺炎症状，21.4%的受试者报告了一种或多种共病。知识得分男性(8.75±1.58)分略高于女性(8.66±1.70)分。知识与年龄(p<；.005)、教育程度(p<；.001)、态度(p<；.001)和城市位置(p<；.001)显著相关。知识得分与恐惧得分呈负相关(p<；.001)。83%(83.7%)有新冠肺炎症状的受试者报告在公共场合戴口罩，75.4%的受试者报告远离拥挤场所。有一个或多个症状的受试者比没有症状的受试者表现出更高的恐惧(18.73±4.6；18.45±5.1)。结论：孟加拉人自我隔离的发生率很高，与新冠肺炎相关的积极的预防性健康行为，以及中等到高度的恐惧水平。男性、受教育程度较高、年龄较大和城市位置的女性拥有更高的知识和实践。对新冠肺炎的恐惧在女性和老年受试者中更为普遍。据报道，大多数受试者的态度都是积极的，反映出他们认为新冠肺炎是可控和可遏制的。
The study aims to determine the level of Knowledge, Attitude, and Practice (KAP) related to COVID-19 preventive health habits and perception of fear towards COVID-19 in subjects living in Bangladesh. Design: Prospective, cross-sectional survey of (n = 2157) male and female subjects, 13–88 years of age, living in Bangladesh. Methods: Ethical approval and trial registration were obtained before the commencement of the study. Subjects who volunteered to participate and signed the informed consent were enrolled in the study and completed the structured questionnaire on KAP and Fear of COVID-19 scale (FCV-19S). Results: Twenty-eight percent (28.69%) of subjects reported one or more COVID-19 symptoms, and 21.4% of subjects reported one or more co-morbidities. Knowledge scores were slightly higher in males (8.75± 1.58) than females (8.66± 1.70). Knowledge was significantly correlated with age (p < .005), an education level (p < .001), attitude (p < .001), and urban location (p < .001). Knowledge scores showed an inverse correlation with fear scores (p < .001). Eighty-three percent (83.7%) of subjects with COVID-19 symptoms reported wearing a mask in public, and 75.4% of subjects reported staying away from crowded places. Subjects with one or more symptoms reported higher fear compared to subjects without (18.73± 4.6; 18.45± 5.1). Conclusion: Bangladeshis reported a high prevalence of self-isolation, positive preventive health behaviors related to COVID-19, and moderate to high fear levels. Higher knowledge and Practice were found in males, higher education levels, older age, and urban location. Fear of COVID-19 was more prevalent in female and elderly subjects. A positive attitude was reported for the majority of subjects, reflecting the belief that COVID-19 was controllable and containable.
