摘要

镰状细胞病(SCD)是印度的重大公共卫生问题,也是全球残疾负担最重的疾病之一。为了使旨在通过健康宣传和筛查降低发病率的疾病预防和控制计划取得成功,公众之前对该疾病的了解非常重要。因此,本研究旨在评估古吉拉特邦 SCD 流行的部落社区对该疾病的基本认识以及健康教育和社区动员计划的效果。这项准实验研究在印度古吉拉特邦的乔塔乌德普尔区分三个阶段进行。在形成阶段和评估阶段,分别对 1646 人和 1631 人进行了预先测试的定量问卷调查,以评估社区居民的知识水平。两个阶段的比例差异通过卡方检验进行统计评估。尽管 75.3% 的受访者以前听说过 SCD,但只有 20% 的受访者能正确认识 SCD 的病因。干预后,这一比例提高了 42%。在评估过程中,83% 的受访者认识到极度疼痛这一最常见的症状,86.8% 的受访者识别出了正确的诊断方法。有 77% 的受访者在干预结束时称现代医学是治疗 SCD 的方法。社区居民对 SCD 的了解和认识不足。然而,健康教育干预策略有效地提高了人们对该疾病及其病因、诊断和治疗的认识。因此,需要采取紧急行动,纳入社区动员和提高认识战略,以减轻疾病负担。

Endline assessment of knowledge about sickle cell disease among the tribal community of Chhotaudepur district of Gujarat.

Sickle cell disease (SCD) is a significant public health concern in India, with one of the highest disability burdens worldwide. For the success of the disease prevention and control program that aims to reduce prevalence through health promotion and screening, the public's prior knowledge of the disease is important. Hence, this study was conducted to assess baseline knowledge of the disease and effects of health education and community mobilization program in the SCD endemic tribal community of Gujarat. This quasi-experimental study was conducted in three phases at Chhotaudepur district of Gujarat, India. Knowledge of the community was assessed through the administration of pretested quantitative questionnaire in 1646 and 1631 individuals respectively during formative and evaluation phases. Differences between the proportions of two phases were statistically assessed by chi-square tests. Despite 75.3% of respondents having heard of SCD before, only 20% could perceive the correct cause. It was improved by 42% post-intervention. During the evaluation, 83% respondents recognized the most common symptom of extreme pain, whereas 86.8% identified the correct diagnostic method. Seventy-seven percent respondents reported modern medicine as a treatment for SCD at endline. Knowledge and awareness about SCD were found inadequate in the community. However, health education intervention strategies effectively improved knowledge related to the disease and its causes, diagnosis, and treatment. Hence, urgent action is required to incorporate community mobilization and awareness generation strategies to mitigate the disease burden.

期刊介绍: The Journal of Community Genetics is an international forum for research in the ever-expanding field of community genetics, the art and science of applying medical genetics to human communities for the benefit of their individuals. Community genetics comprises all activities which identify persons at increased genetic risk and has an interest in assessing this risk, in order to enable those at risk to make informed decisions. Community genetics services thus encompass such activities as genetic screening, registration of genetic conditions in the population, routine preconceptional and prenatal genetic consultations, public education on genetic issues, and public debate on related ethical issues. The Journal of Community Genetics has a multidisciplinary scope. It covers medical genetics, epidemiology, genetics in primary care, public health aspects of genetics, and ethical, legal, social and economic issues. Its intention is to serve as a forum for community genetics worldwide, with a focus on low- and middle-income countries. The journal features original research papers, reviews, short communications, program reports, news, and correspondence. Program reports describe illustrative projects in the field of community genetics, e.g., design and progress of an educational program or the protocol and achievement of a gene bank. Case reports describing individual patients are not accepted.
