简介：于二零二零年十二月及二零二一年一月，英国公共卫生署（Public Health England，PHE）与英国国民健康服务体系（NHS）检测及追踪部门进行了一项研究，探讨每日检测作为与确诊COVID-19病例密切接触后自我隔离的替代方法的可行性及可接受性。这篇定性论文旨在确定影响日常测试的因素，以及随后对行为的影响。方法：我们对52名参与可行性研究的参与者进行了深入采访。参与者被问及他们的日常测试或自我隔离的经历，他们选择测试或隔离的原因，以及他们在研究期间的行为。采用归纳专题分析法对数据进行了分析。结果：结果分为两个主要标题：（1）影响检测验收的因素和（2）检测结果的影响。参与者似乎非常积极地参与保护他人免受病毒侵害的行为。影响决定接受检测的因素包括（1）需要避免自我隔离，（2）对检测敏感性的担忧，以及（3）检测感染的感知益处。参加测试的参与者报告：（1）确认COVID状态后的积极后果，（2）从事必要的活动，（3）不确定性，（4）在测试时自我隔离。结论：这项研究确定了一系列因素，这些因素似乎会影响在与阳性病例密切接触后进行日常检测或自我隔离的决定，其中许多因素可以通过明确的沟通来解决。2019冠状病毒感染率和政府限制影响了人们的体验，因此需要进一步研究，以探索在2019冠状病毒感染率较低、政府对一般人群行为的限制较少以及更广泛的检测的背景下，更广泛的个人对日常检测和与阳性病例密切接触后的行为的看法。
Introduction: In December 2020 and January 2021 Public Health England (PHE) with NHS Test and Trace conducted a study to explore the feasibility and acceptability of daily testing as an alternative to self-isolation following close contact with a confirmed COVID-19 case. This qualitative paper aims to identify factors influencing uptake among those offered daily testing, and the subsequent impact on behaviour. Methods: We conducted in-depth interviews with 52 participants who had taken part in the feasibility study. Participants were asked about their experiences of daily testing or self-isolating, their reasons for choosing to test or isolate, and their behaviour during the study period. Data were analysed using inductive thematic analysis. Results: Results are presented under two main headings: (1) factors influencing acceptance of testing and (2) impact of test results. Participants appeared highly motivated to engage in behaviours that would protect others from the virus. Factors influencing the decision to accept testing included (1) needing to avoid self-isolation, (2) concerns about test sensitivity, and (3) perceived benefits of detecting infection. Participants who were taking tests reported: (1) positive consequences following confirmation of COVID status, (2) engaging in essential activities, (3) uncertainty, and (4) self-isolating whilst testing. Conclusions: This study has identified a range of factors that appear to influence the decision to engage in daily testing or to self-isolate following close contact with a positive case, many of which could be addressed by clear communications. Covid-19 infection rates and government restrictions influenced experiences, and so further research is needed to explore perceptions of daily testing and behaviour following close contact with a positive case among a wider range of individuals, in the context of lower rates of COVID-19, few government restrictions on general population behaviour and more widespread testing.
