Abstract

Introduction: Preventive care practices are a challenge in community care. This study examined hantavirus preventive practices and their relationship with personal and social factors, lifestyle, and cultural beliefs.

Method: An explanatory sequential mixed methods design, guided by Leininger's Theory of Culture Care Diversity and Universality, was used in two phases: (a) a cross-sectional relational design (n = 109) and (b) ethnonursing research (n = 30), in an endemic community in Panama. Univariate and bivariate analyses were used to analyze the quantitative data, whereas the Leininger's analysis model was used to analyze the qualitative data.

Results: In the quantitative phase, the most frequent preventive practice was household hygiene, and the least frequent was vector control. Two of the eight preventive practices were associated with personal factors and two were associated with social factors. In the qualitative phase, lifestyle, beliefs, and context were found to influence the adoption of hantavirus preventive practices and help explain the quantitative findings.

Discussion: Knowledge and understanding of the social and cultural contexts are essential for hantavirus prevention.

巴拿马农村社区的汉坦病毒预防措施：一项解释性顺序混合方法研究。

引言预防性护理措施是社区护理中的一项挑战。本研究探讨了汉坦病毒预防措施及其与个人和社会因素、生活方式和文化信仰之间的关系：方法：以莱宁格的文化护理多样性和普遍性理论为指导，采用解释性顺序混合方法设计，分两个阶段进行：(a) 横向关系设计（n = 109）；(b) 民族护理研究（n = 30）。定量数据采用单变量和双变量分析，定性数据采用莱宁格分析模型：在定量分析阶段，最常见的预防措施是家庭卫生，最少见的是病媒控制。八种预防方法中有两种与个人因素有关，两种与社会因素有关。在定性阶段，生活方式、信仰和环境被发现会影响汉坦病毒预防措施的采用，并有助于解释定量结果：讨论：对社会和文化背景的了解和理解对于汉坦病毒的预防至关重要。

期刊介绍： Accounts of Chemical Research presents short, concise and critical articles offering easy-to-read overviews of basic research and applications in all areas of chemistry and biochemistry. These short reviews focus on research from the author’s own laboratory and are designed to teach the reader about a research project. In addition, Accounts of Chemical Research publishes commentaries that give an informed opinion on a current research problem. Special Issues online are devoted to a single topic of unusual activity and significance. Accounts of Chemical Research replaces the traditional article abstract with an article "Conspectus." These entries synopsize the research affording the reader a closer look at the content and significance of an article. Through this provision of a more detailed description of the article contents, the Conspectus enhances the article's discoverability by search engines and the exposure for the research.
