摘要

背景:乙型肝炎病毒(HBV)具有高度传染性,是发病率和死亡率的主要原因。可以通过安全做法和免疫接种来预防乙型肝炎病毒感染。本研究的目的是评估尼日利亚拉各斯州市场贸易商对HBV感染的知识、态度和预防措施。方法:采用多阶段抽样方法,对拉各斯州索莫卢地方政府区417名市场贸易商进行描述性、横断面研究。数据收集采用预先测试的访谈者管理问卷。数据分析使用Statistical Package for Social Sciences version 20完成。采用卡方统计检验变量间的相关性,显著性水平设为5%。结果:调查对象平均年龄39.2±12.5岁。大约64%的人是女性,69.8%的人已婚,只有15.6%的人受过高等教育。大多数(97.6%)知晓HBV感染。总体而言,约80%的受访者对HBV感染有良好的认识,51.8%的受访者对HBV预防有良好的态度,但只有18.5%的受访者对HBV感染有良好的预防措施。只有5%的答复者完成了三剂乙肝疫苗的接种。调查对象对HBV感染的知识和预防措施与文化程度和婚姻状况显著相关,对预防措施的态度与性别相关。受访者的知识和态度与HBV感染的预防措施显著相关。结论:有必要针对市场上的贸易商,建立适当的意识,筛查和预防HBV感染的疫苗接种计划。

Hepatitis B virus infection-related knowledge, attitude, and preventive practices among market traders in Lagos, Nigeria - A cross sectional study
Background: Hepatitis B virus (HBV) is highly infectious and a major cause of morbidity and mortality. Prevention of HBV infection can be achieved through safe practices and immunization. The objectives of this study were to assess knowledge, attitude, and preventive practices for HBV infection among market traders in Lagos State, Nigeria. Methods: A descriptive, cross-sectional study involving 417 market traders in Somolu Local Government Area of Lagos State selected by multistage sampling technique was conducted. A pretested interviewer-administered questionnaire was used for data collection. Data analysis was done using Statistical Package for the Social Sciences version 20. Chi-square statistics was used to test the association between variables, and the level of significance was set at 5%. Results: The mean age of the respondents was 39.2 ± 12.5 years. About 64% were female, 69.8% were married, and only 15.6% had tertiary education. Majority (97.6%) were aware of HBV infection. Overall, about 80% of the respondents had good knowledge of HBV infection, while 51.8% had good attitude toward HBV prevention, but only 18.5% of them had good preventive practices toward HBV infection. Only 5% of the respondents had completed the three doses of hepatitis B vaccine. Knowledge and preventive practices of the respondents about HBV infection were significantly associated with the level of education and marital status, while attitude to the preventive practices was associated with gender. Respondents' knowledge and attitude were significantly associated with the preventive practices for HBV infection. Conclusion: There is a need to target the traders in the markets and create appropriate awareness, screening, and vaccination programs for the prevention of HBV infection.
