Abstract:
Parkinson\'s disease (PD) is a common neurological disease affecting around 1% of people above sixty years old. It is characterised by both motor and non-motor symptoms including tremor, slow movement, unsteady gait, constipation and urinary incontinence. As the disease progresses, individuals living with the disease are likely to lose their independence and autonomy, subsequently affecting their quality of life. People with PD should be supported to live well within their communities but there has been limited research regarding what the public know about PD. This review aims to develop an understanding of how the public view people living with PD, which has the potential to aid the development of an educational resource for the future to improve public awareness and understanding of PD. The purpose of this scoping review is to review and synthesise the literature on the public perception and attitudes towards people living with PD and identify and describe key findings.
This scoping review aims to explore public perceptions and awareness of Parkinson\'s Disease among diverse populations, encompassing beliefs, knowledge, attitudes, and the broader societal context influencing these perceptions.
A scoping review of the literature was conducted following the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-analysis extension for ScR (PRISMA-ScR). Four electronic databases were searched systematically (CINAHL Plus, Medline, PsycINFO and International Bibliography of the Social Sciences). The Joanna Briggs Institute Critical Appraisal Tools (JBI) were used to assess the quality of primary studies, however, all relevant studies were considered regardless of their methodological quality. The \'Population-Concept-Context\' framework was used in the screening process to identify eligible papers.
A total of 23 studies were included in the review representing global research in quantitative (n = 12) and mixed methods approaches (n = 11). All 23 studies adopted some aspect of cross-sectional design. Three themes emerged from the studies, the first being public knowledge of symptoms, causes and treatment of PD and this highlighted a lack of understanding about the disease. Secondly, the review identified public attitudes towards PD, highlighting the social consequences of the disease, including the association between PD and depression, isolation and loss of independence. Finally, the third theme highlighted that there was a paucity of educational resources available to help increase public understanding of PD.
Findings from this scoping review have indicated that public awareness of PD is a growing area of interest. To our knowledge, this is the first scoping review on this topic and review findings have indicated that public knowledge and attitudes towards PD vary internationally. The implications of this are that people with PD are more likely to be a marginalised group within their communities. Future research should focus on understanding the perception of the public from the perspective of people with PD, the development of interventions and awareness campaigns to promote public knowledge and attitude and further high-quality research to gauge public perceptions of PD.
摘要:
背景:帕金森病(PD)是一种常见的神经系统疾病,影响约1%的60岁以上的人。它的特点是运动和非运动症状,包括震颤,缓慢运动,步态不稳定,便秘和尿失禁。随着疾病的进展,患有这种疾病的人可能会失去独立性和自主性,影响他们的生活质量。应该支持患有PD的人在他们的社区中生活得很好,但是关于公众对PD的了解的研究有限。这项审查旨在了解公众如何看待与PD生活在一起的人,这有可能帮助开发未来的教育资源,以提高公众对PD的认识和理解。本范围审查的目的是审查和综合有关公众对患有PD的人的看法和态度的文献,并确定和描述关键发现。
目的:本范围审查旨在探讨公众对不同人群对帕金森病的看法和认识,包含信仰,知识,态度,以及影响这些看法的更广泛的社会背景。
方法:根据ScR系统评价和Meta分析扩展的首选报告项目(PRISMA-ScR)对文献进行范围审查。系统地搜索了四个电子数据库(CINAHLPlus,Medline,PsycINFO和国际社会科学参考书目)。JoannaBriggs研究所批判性评估工具(JBI)用于评估主要研究的质量,然而,无论方法学质量如何,都考虑了所有相关研究.筛选过程中使用了“人口概念背景”框架来识别合格的论文。
结果:共有23项研究被纳入综述,代表定量(n=12)和混合方法(n=11)的全球研究。所有23项研究都采用了横截面设计的某些方面。研究中出现了三个主题,第一个是公众对症状的了解,PD的原因和治疗,这突出了人们对这种疾病缺乏了解。其次,审查确定了公众对PD的态度,强调这种疾病的社会后果,包括PD和抑郁症之间的关联,孤立和失去独立性。最后,第三个主题强调,缺乏教育资源来帮助提高公众对PD的了解。
结论:本范围审查的研究结果表明,公众对PD的认识是一个越来越感兴趣的领域。据我们所知,这是有关该主题的首次范围审查,审查结果表明,公众对PD的知识和态度在国际上有所不同。这意味着患有PD的人更有可能成为其社区内的边缘化群体。未来的研究应该集中在从PD患者的角度理解公众的感知,开展干预措施和提高认识运动,以促进公众的知识和态度,并进一步开展高质量的研究,以衡量公众对PD的看法。
