Abstract:
Health literacy is an increasingly required need to help individuals, families and communities manage their health and health conditions. It is linked with better self-adherence to treatments, use of resources, access to care and overall reduced costs in healthcare. In the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC), which comprises Bahrain, Kuwait, Oman, Qatar, Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates, various health literacy programs are implemented across states to address people\'s unique and complex healthcare needs. This article aims to examine the current literature and assess the factors that influence the outcomes of health literacy programs within the GCC. An integrative review methodology has been conducted to pursue a comprehensive understanding of health literacy interventions in the GCC. This investigative approach was shaped by Whittemore and Knafl\'s framework (2005), which includes problem identification, literature search, data evaluation, data analysis and presentation. The literature on the effectiveness of health literacy interventions and the factors that shape them are notably limited worldwide and within the GCC region. This integrative review addresses this knowledge gap and highlights the significance of key themes such as sessions, evaluation and improvement in shaping health literacy outcomes within the GCC region. Through this integrative review, the three main themes of sessions, evaluation and improvement were identified as influencing the outcomes of health literacy programs within the GCC.
摘要:
健康素养是帮助个人日益需要的,家庭和社区管理他们的健康和健康状况。它与更好的自我坚持治疗有关,利用资源,获得护理和降低医疗保健的总体成本。在海湾合作委员会(GCC)中,其中包括巴林,科威特,阿曼,卡塔尔,沙特阿拉伯和阿拉伯联合酋长国,各州实施各种健康素养计划,以满足人们独特而复杂的医疗保健需求。本文旨在研究当前文献,并评估影响海湾合作委员会健康素养计划成果的因素。已经进行了综合审查方法,以全面了解海湾合作委员会的健康素养干预措施。这种调查方法是由Whittemore和Knafl的框架(2005)塑造的,其中包括问题识别,文献检索,数据评估,数据分析和呈现。关于健康素养干预措施的有效性及其影响因素的文献在世界范围内和海湾合作委员会区域内尤其有限。这一综合审查解决了这一知识差距,并强调了关键主题的重要性,如会议,海合会区域内塑造健康素养成果的评估和改进。通过这次综合审查,会议的三个主要主题,评估和改进被确定为影响GCC内健康素养计划的结果。
