摘要

目的：研究表明，医疗创新的采用是复杂的。本研究利用长效驱虫蚊帐（LLINs）这一预防疟疾的创新产品，旨在了解非洲在采用医疗创新产品时所考虑的因素：我们采用定性方法采访了加纳的 10 位户主，他们在一次疟疾防治活动中免费领取了长效驱虫蚊帐。我们以保护动机理论（PMT）为框架，采用演绎式主题分析方法对数据进行了分析：结果：我们发现，保护动机理论的结构：感知的严重性、感知的脆弱性、感知的反应效能和感知的自我效能影响了医疗创新（即长效驱虫蚊帐）的采用。我们还发现，对疟疾感染和预防的误解影响了长效驱虫蚊帐的感知反应效果，这可能会影响长效驱虫蚊帐的使用：结论：PMT 的概念对决定是否使用长效驱虫蚊帐非常重要。对疟疾感染和预防的误解可能会影响使用长效驱虫蚊帐的决定。未来的研究应探讨如何消除这些误解。

Healthcare innovation adoption in Africa: the case of long-lasting insecticide nets in Ghana using protection motivation theory.

Objective: Studies have shown that healthcare innovation adoption is complex. Using Long-lasting insecticidal nets (LLINs), an innovation for malaria prevention, the study aimed to understand factors considered in the adoption of healthcare innovations in Africa.

Methods and measures: Using qualitative methods, we interviewed 10 household heads in Ghana who had freely received LLINs during a malaria campaign. We analyzed our data using a deductive thematic analysis approach utilizing the protection motivation theory (PMT) as our framework.

Results: We found that the constructs of PMT: perceived severity, perceived vulnerability, perceived response efficacy, and perceived self-efficacy influenced the adoption of healthcare innovation (i.e. LLINs). We also found that misconceptions about malaria infection and prevention influenced the perceived response efficacy of LLINs which could undermine LLINs usage.

Conclusion: The constructs of PMT are important in the decision to use LLINs. Misconceptions about malaria infection and prevention could undermine the decision to use LLINs. Future studies should investigate ways to address these misconceptions.

期刊介绍： Psychology & Health promotes the study and application of psychological approaches to health and illness. The contents include work on psychological aspects of physical illness, treatment processes and recovery; psychosocial factors in the aetiology of physical illnesses; health attitudes and behaviour, including prevention; the individual-health care system interface particularly communication and psychologically-based interventions. The journal publishes original research, and accepts not only papers describing rigorous empirical work, including meta-analyses, but also those outlining new psychological approaches and interventions in health-related fields.
