摘要
抗生素耐药性感染对全球造成的威胁促使卫生机构制定了抗生素管理计划(ASP),其中对当前和未来的医疗处方者和农民进行教育是保护当前和未来抗菌治疗的核心。本研究的目的是评估和比较海斯堡州立大学生物和农业专业的本科生对抗生素和抗生素耐药性的认识和感知威胁,以及对抗生素管理教育的感知益处。我假设,由于课程要求不同,生物专业学生和农学专业学生在知识和认知方面的差异会很大。在健康信念模型(HBM)的框架下,我们对 136 名本科生参与者进行了结构化在线调查,从而开展了一项定量横断面研究。研究采用χ2分析法评估了受访者对抗生素、抗生素耐药性和抗生素管理教育的认识和看法在本科阶段的差异。结果表明,虽然农学院学生认为抗生素耐药性的威胁性低于生物/健康预科学生,但两个本科生群体都对这一问题有所了解,并希望在这一问题上得到更多的学术教育。这些发现为启动课程开发对话奠定了坚实的基础,以实现 ASP 在本科阶段的目标和目的,同时为正在进行的国际努力做出贡献,教育未来的处方医生和农民了解抗生素在医学和农业中的重要性,并减少抗生素耐药性。
Knowledge and perception of antibiotic resistance and stewardship among pre-health and agriculture undergraduate students.
The global threat of antibiotic-resistant infections has resulted in health organizations compiling an Antibiotic Stewardship Program (ASP), in which the education of current and future medical prescribers and farmers is central to the preservation of current and future antimicrobial treatments. The purpose of this study was to assess and compare the knowledge and perceived threat of antibiotics and antibiotic resistance, as well as the perceived benefit of antibiotic stewardship education, among undergraduate students majoring in Biology and Agriculture at Fort Hays State University. I hypothesized that the difference in knowledge and perceptions between Biology and Agriculture students would be significantly different because of differences in curriculum requirements. Framed by the health belief model (HBM), a quantitative cross-sectional study was conducted using a structured online survey of 136 undergraduate student participants. A χ2 analysis was used to assess differences between the respondents in their knowledge and perceptions of antibiotics, antibiotic resistance, and antibiotic stewardship education at the undergraduate level. Results showed that, although Agriculture students perceived antibiotic resistance as less threatening than Biology/pre-health students, both undergraduate groups were knowledgeable about the problem and wanted more academic education on the issue. These findings create a solid foundation to initiate a conversation on the curriculum development to meet ASP goals and objectives at the undergraduate level while contributing to an ongoing international effort to educate future prescribers and farmers on the importance of antibiotics in medicine and farming and to reduce antibiotic resistance.
