摘要

目的：了解泌尿外科门诊新就诊患者对良性前列腺增生（BPH）知识的了解情况，并找出与知识缺乏相关的因素。方法：不论主诉如何，在本院泌尿科门诊首次就诊的成年男性患者均被邀请完成一份26项多项选择问卷，以评估他们在初次就诊前对前列腺增生的基本知识、相关症状和治疗方案。使用方差分析和多变量线性模型将反应与人口统计学变量相关。结果：206例患者完成问卷调查，平均年龄60.8岁。大多数是白人（85.6%），28.9%的人参加了医疗保险/医疗补助。平均正确反应率为62%（标准偏差为22.9%），表现最差的领域是BPH并发症。结论：在寻求泌尿科护理的男性中，关于前列腺增生的知识差距仍然很大。针对患者和初级保健医生的教育工具可能有助于提高BPH患者的健康素养和健康结果。

Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia Knowledge Deficits Among Male Urology Patients.

Objective: To measure patient knowledge about Benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) and identify factors associated with knowledge deficiencies among those newly presenting to our urology clinic.

Methods: Adult men presenting as new patients to our institution's urology clinic regardless of chief complaint were invited to complete a 26-item multiple choice questionnaire to assess basic knowledge about BPH, related symptomatology, and treatment options prior to their initial consultation. Responses were correlated to demographic variables using ANOVA and multivariable linear modeling.

Results: 206 patients completed the questionnaire and had a mean age of 60.8 years. The majority were White (85.6%) and 28.9% were Medicare/Medicaid insured. The mean correct response rate was 62% (standard deviation of 22.9%) with the worst performing domain being BPH complications. Having a graduate or professional degree (p<0.001) and self-referral were associated with significantly higher scores (p=0.027).

Conclusions: There remain significant knowledge gaps about BPH among men seeking urologic care. Education tools for both patients and primary care physicians may help improve health literacy as well as health outcomes for patients with BPH.
