孤儿院儿童营养疾病预防健康教育计划

背景：营养性疾病，任何与营养有关的疾病和导致儿童生病的病症。孤儿院的儿童更容易患营养性疾病。目的：本研究旨在评估孤儿院儿童健康教育计划对预防营养性疾病的影响。研究设计：本研究采用了准实验研究设计（前-后测试）。研究地点研究在卡柳比亚省本哈市的两所孤儿院（男性社会家庭护理院和女性社会家庭护理院）进行。样本：根据一定的纳入标准（6:17 岁）对儿童（60 名儿童）进行方便抽样。工具：使用两种工具。(I):结构化访谈问卷，包括两部分：(A)：孤儿院儿童的人口特征。(B):儿童对营养和营养疾病的了解。(II)：观察儿童在营养方面的做法。结果：33.3%的受试儿童在计划实施前对营养知识的掌握情况良好，计划实施后这一比例上升到 55%；20%的受试儿童在计划实施前对营养知识的掌握情况令人满意，计划实施后这一比例上升到 80%。被调查儿童的总实践得分与计划前后的总知识得分之间存在高度统计学意义上的正相关。结论健康教育计划对提高孤儿院儿童预防营养性疾病的知识和实践水平具有积极作用。建议：需要持续开展健康教育计划，以预防营养性疾病。
