摘要

背景:移动医疗已在医疗保健系统中得到广泛应用,在行为管理、疾病监测、各种健康问题的控制和预防以及医疗保健服务注册人数增加等方面采用这种创新技术的全球趋势日益明显。虽然移动医疗的应用越来越广泛,但目前还没有证据表明埃塞俄比亚西南部的医疗保健专业人员对移动医疗的态度。因此,本研究旨在评估埃塞俄比亚医疗保健专业人员对使用移动医疗技术的态度及相关因素。研究方法对 422 名医疗保健专业人员进行了机构横断面研究。研究于 2023 年 1 月 8 日至 2 月 10 日进行,采用预先测试的访谈者管理问卷收集数据。研究使用 EpiData 4.6 版输入数据,使用 STATA 14 版分析数据。研究采用多变量逻辑回归分析,以确定与医护人员使用移动医疗技术的态度相关的因素。研究结果本研究共纳入了 415 名参与者。约 180 名(43.4%)受访者对西南地区公立医院的移动医疗技术持赞成态度。硕士及以上学历(调整赔率 [AOR]:3.67;95% CI:1.22, 4.10)、对移动医疗技术有良好了解(AOR:4.08;95% CI:1.35, 5.31)、5 年以上工作经验(AOR:3.09;95% CI:1.76, 5.60)、拥有信息和通信技术基础设施(AOR:2.70;95% CI:1.38,5.31)、拥有自己的智能移动设备(AOR:3.67;95% CI:3.20,4.31)和接受过计算机相关培训(AOR:1.96;95% CI:1.03,3.73)与埃塞俄比亚西南部医疗专业人员使用移动医疗技术的态度呈正相关。结论总体而言,埃塞俄比亚西南部医疗专业人员对使用移动医疗技术的态度相对较低。教育水平、良好的知识、工作经验年限、信息与通信技术基础设施、拥有智能手机以及接受过计算机相关培训是影响医护人员使用移动医疗技术态度的重要因素。考虑这些因素可以为在埃塞俄比亚开发和采用移动医疗技术提供启示。

Healthcare Professionals' Attitude to Using Mobile Health Technology and Its Associated Factors in a Resource-Limited Country-An Implication for Digital Health Implementers: A Cross Sectional Study.

Background: Mobile health has become widely used within the healthcare system, and there is an increasing worldwide trend toward employing this innovation for behavior management, disease monitoring, the control and prevention of various health issues, and rising enrollment in healthcare services. Although mHealth is becoming more widely available, there is no evidence about the attitude of healthcare professionals toward mHealth in southwest Ethiopia. Therefore, this study is aimed at assessing the attitude of healthcare professionals to using mHealth technology and associated factors in Ethiopia. Methods: An institutional cross-sectional study was conducted among 422 healthcare professionals. Data were collected using a pretested interviewer-administered questionnaire, and the study was conducted from January 08 to February 10, 2023. EpiData Version 4.6 for entering the data and STATA Version 14 for analyzing the data were used. A multivariable logistic regression analysis was carried out to identify factors associated with healthcare professionals' attitudes to using mobile health technology. Results: A total of 415 study participants were included in the study. About 180 (43.4%) respondents had a favorable attitude toward mHealth technology in southwest public hospitals. Master's degree and above (adjusted odds ratio [AOR]: 3.67; 95% CI: 1.22, 4.10), good knowledge of mobile health technology (AOR: 4.08; 95% CI: 1.35, 5.31), more than 5 years of work experience (AOR: 3.09; 95% CI: 1.76, 5.60), had ICT infrastructure (AOR: 2.70; 95% CI: 1.38, 5.31), had own smart mobile (AOR: 3.67; 95% CI: 3.20, 4.31), and had taken computer-related training (AOR: 1.96; 95% CI: 1.03, 3.73) were positively associated with healthcare professionals' attitude to using mobile health technologies in southwest Ethiopia. Conclusions: Overall, healthcare professionals' attitude to using mobile health technologies in southwest Ethiopia was relatively low. Education level, good knowledge, years of work experience, ICT infrastructure, having a smart mobile, and having taken computer-related training were significant factors of attitude to using mobile health technologies. Considering these factors could provide insight into developing and adopting mobile health technologies in Ethiopia.
