Process A review of universal tools measuring activity limitations, stigma, participation restrictions, mental wellbeing, quality of life, and community stigma, was carried out for their applicability to leprosy and LF disability. A focus group discussion was conducted with field staff who had used these tools, to learn from their experiences. Questions for the minimum essential data tool were formulated based on their applicability and relevance to people with severe leprosy and LF disabilities, their context, and to our aim. A hybrid quantitative and qualitative minimum essential data tool was developed, integrating leprosy and LF disability related issues to holistically assess situations, capture lived experiences, and enable living with leprosy and LF disability within the cultural and environmental context of rural India.","PeriodicalId":18196,"journal":{"name":"Leprosy review","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.6,"publicationDate":"2022-03-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"46717313","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Methodology The study used a cross-sectional design with a qualitative approach. Semi-structured in-depth interviews were conducted with community members unaffected by leprosy. Participants were selected using stratified purposive sampling. Thematic analysis was performed based on the “Framework Approach”. Results A total of 21 community members were included in this study. We found that the majority of the participants perceived persons affected by leprosy negatively, they were considered dirty, incurable, and inferior. Participants indicated that they avoid touching, social interactions, and sharing meals with persons affected by leprosy. In addition, leprosy was said to negatively impact employment opportunities and the marriage prospects of persons affected and their family members. Marriage prospects were considered worse for women affected by leprosy. We identified four main drivers of stigmatization: (1) local beliefs and misconceptions about leprosy (e.g. the belief affected. Our findings underscore the importance of community education and behavior change as key to transforming perceptions and behavior towards persons affected.","PeriodicalId":18196,"journal":{"name":"Leprosy review","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.6,"publicationDate":"2022-03-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"45236759","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This study aimed to determine the current knowledge and attitudes on leprosy of healthcare workers in a tertiary government hospitalinthePhilippineswhichwillserveasthebasisforourfutureleprosyawarenesscampaigns. Methods We conducted a descriptive cross-sectional study among 265 healthcare workers in Rizal Medical Center (RMC), Philippines from January to March 2020 using a self-administered questionnaire. Descriptive statistics were used to describe the demographics and study variables. Results A majority had high (36.2%) or medium (35.5%) knowledge on leprosy. A majority (62.3%) had positive attitudes towards leprosy. However, only 18.5% knew that leprosy is transmitted through inhalation and a majority thought that it is transmitted either through body fluids and secretions (52.8%) or open wounds (27.5%). Only about half knew that a patient on treatment can no longer transmit the disease and does not need to be isolated, and that a patient who has completed treatment but still exhibits manifestations of the disease can no longer transmit the disease. majority high or medium knowledge leprosy and a positive attitude towards leprosy, identified misconceptions knowledge gaps centered on its mode of transmission and transmissibility which can lead to inappropriate fear of acquiring the disease from patients.","PeriodicalId":18196,"journal":{"name":"Leprosy review","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.6,"publicationDate":"2022-03-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"43349482","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
