■儿童窒息是一个全球性的健康问题,主要影响5岁以下的儿童。父母和看护人的责任在孩子的生活中至关重要,并可能影响家庭伤害的结果,如窒息。我们旨在评估知识,态度,实践,以及来自东部省的沙特成年人对窒息危险的急救管理的相关因素。
■本分析研究是在沙特阿拉伯东部省不同初级保健中心的390名沙特成年人中进行的。我们使用了标准和经过验证的数据研究主题工具来评估知识,态度,和实践。Spearman相关性用于确定每个部分之间的相关性,而二项逻辑回归分析用于确定相关因素。
■我们观察到了知识,态度,和练习分数分别为43.3、38.9和36.4%的参与者,分别。此外,知识与态度呈正相关(ρ=0.42,P=0.001),在知识和实践之间(rho=0.57,p=0.001),在我们的调查中揭示了态度和实践之间的差异(rho=0.41,p=0.001)。30-40岁年龄组的参与者的知识明显较高[校正比值比(AOR)=3.67(1.94-4.65),p=0.001]和接受过急救管理培训的参与者[AOR=1.64(1.12-2.49),p=0.037]。这项研究发现,男性[AOR=0.36(0.21-0.63),p=0.001]和在私营部门工作的人[AOR=0.61(0.31-0.87),p=0.018]的态度明显较低。
■我们的研究结果强调了在初级卫生保健中心开展持续健康教育举措和培训课程的重要性,这些课程涉及窒息危险的急救管理,以提高人们的认识和实践。此外,我们推荐前瞻性多中心研究,以解决特定地区的知识差距.
UNASSIGNED: Childhood
choking is a global health concern that mainly affects children under the age of 5 years. The parent\'s and caretaker\'s responsibility is critical in the children\'s lives and can potentially influence the result of at-home injuries such as
choking. We aimed to assess the knowledge, attitude, practice, and associated factors of first aid management toward
choking hazards among Saudi adults from the Eastern Province.
UNASSIGNED: The present analytical study was carried out among 390 Saudi adults attending different primary health centers in the Eastern Province of Saudi Arabia. We used a standard and validated data research topic tool to assess knowledge, attitude, and practice. Spearman\'s correlation was applied to determine the correlation between each section, while binomial logistic regression analysis was applied to identify the associated factors.
UNASSIGNED: We observed knowledge, attitude, and practice scores in 43.3, 38.9, and 36.4% of the participants, respectively. Furthermore, positive correlations between knowledge and attitude (rho = 0.42, p = 0.001), between knowledge and practice (rho = 0.57, p = 0.001), and between attitude and practice (rho = 0.41, p = 0.001) were revealed in our survey. The knowledge of the participants was significantly higher with the age group of 30-40 years [adjusted odds ratio (AOR) = 3.67 (1.94-4.65), p = 0.001] and participants who received training in first aid management [AOR = 1.64 (1.12-2.49), p = 0.037]. This study found that males [AOR = 0.36 (0.21-0.63), p = 0.001] and those working in the private sector [AOR = 0.61 (0.31-0.87), p = 0.018] had significantly lower attitudes.
UNASSIGNED: Our results underscore the importance of continuous health education initiatives and training courses at primary health care centers regarding first aid management of
choking hazards to improve awareness and practices. Furthermore, we recommend prospective multicenter studies to address region-specific knowledge gaps.
