Adolescents and parents' knowledge of chronic kidney disease: the potential of school-based education.
Background: Preventing the progression of chronic kidney disease (CKD), reducing the incidence of new dialysis patients, and increasing public awareness about CKD are pivotal in mitigating renal impairment. This study aimed to assess the relevance of kidney disease and CKD knowledge among junior high school students and their parents.
Methods: A questionnaire survey on kidney function and CKD was conducted among students aged 14-15 years and their parents (851 pairs). Parents were also asked about their age, sex, and participation in health checkups.
Results: The study achieved a collection rate of 49.1%, with a valid response rate of 79.7%. Both junior high school students and their parents exhibited limited knowledge about kidney functions, primarily understanding these functions only in terms of waste product excretion and lacking awareness of other functions. A significant positive correlation was observed in awareness of kidney functions between students and their parents. Regarding CKD awareness, only 2.4% of students and 16.5% of parents were knowledgeable about CKD itself, while 18.9% of students and 45.3% of parents were aware of its name only. Importantly, CKD knowledge among both students and parents was associated, with those aware of CKD also demonstrating better understanding of kidney functions.
Conclusion: This study highlights inadequate knowledge among junior high school students and their parents regarding renal function and CKD. A significant correlation was observed in CKD awareness between students and their parents. These findings underscore the need for targeted strategies to enhance public education and awareness about kidney health.
期刊介绍:
Clinical and Experimental Nephrology is a peer-reviewed monthly journal, officially published by the Japanese Society of Nephrology (JSN) to provide an international forum for the discussion of research and issues relating to the study of nephrology. Out of respect for the founders of the JSN, the title of this journal uses the term “nephrology,” a word created and brought into use with the establishment of the JSN (Japanese Journal of Nephrology, Vol. 2, No. 1, 1960). The journal publishes articles on all aspects of nephrology, including basic, experimental, and clinical research, so as to share the latest research findings and ideas not only with members of the JSN, but with all researchers who wish to contribute to a better understanding of recent advances in nephrology. The journal is unique in that it introduces to an international readership original reports from Japan and also the clinical standards discussed and agreed by JSN.
