摘要

传统医学(TM)是发展中国家作为初级卫生保健系统广泛实践的最早的基于文化的替代医学。本研究旨在通过基于社区的横断面研究,对埃塞俄比亚哈拉尔河东部三个相邻地区的TM利用情况进行比较评估。采用系统随机抽样技术对研究对象进行抽样,直至各地区达到所需样本量。来自三个地区的大多数受访者是农村家庭,穆斯林,31至40岁,文盲,男性户主,有7个或更多的家庭规模,月收入低于1000美元。原麻亚区、梅塔区和康伯查区使用频率最高的本土中药分别为葱(69.17%、67.13%和68.42%)、辣椒(67.14%、68.43%和69.33%)、桂枝(61.52%、63.19%和59.17%)和叶菖蒲(59.11%、61.13%和60.19%)。家人和朋友是使用TM最值得信赖的信息来源。最常见的疾病是腹泻、发烧、疟疾和普通感冒。大多数受访者通过使用传统治疗师(THs)来使用TM。社区里的病人在病情严重的时候就得到了治疗。祖母/父亲担任这一职务,他们使用液体形式的草药来治疗病人。阻碍受访者不使用现代卫生设施的主要因素是西药难以获得和负担不起,以及文化上接受的传统医学在地区初级卫生保健系统中的应用。关键词:TM,自制偏方,哈拉玛亚,梅塔,康伯尔茶,哈拉尔河东部,埃塞俄比亚

Comparative Assessment of Traditional Medicine Utilizations in Three Adjacent Districts of East Hararghe, Ethiopia
Traditional medicine (TM) is the earliest culturally-based alternative medicine extensively practised as a primary health care system in developing countries. The current study was designed to make the comparative assessment of TM utilization from three adjacent districts of east Hararghe, Ethiopia using a community-based cross sectional study. Study participants were selected using the systematic random sampling technique method until the required sample size was reached in each district. The majority of the respondents from the three districts were rural households, Muslims, 31 to 40 years old, illiterate, male-headed with seven or more family-sized households and had less than 1000 birr monthly income. The most frequently used homegrown TM remedies were Allium sativum (69.17%, 67.13%, and 68.42%), Capsicum spp (67.14%, 68.43%, and 69.33%), Guizotia arborescens (61.52%, 63.19%, and 59.17%) and Ocimum lamiifolium (59.11%, 61.13%, and 60.19%) in Haramaya, Meta and Kombolcha districts, respectively. Family and friends were the most trusted sources of information in utilizing TM. The highest commonly occurring diseases were diarrhoea, fever, Malaria and common colds. The majority of respondents used TM through the use of traditional healers (THs). Sick people in the community were treated at the serious stage of the illness. Grandmothers/fathers served as THs and they used herbs made in liquid form to treat the sick. The major factor impeding the respondents not to use modern health facilities are inaccessibility and unaffordability of western medicine and culturally accepted TM utilization in primary health care system the districts. Keywords: TM, Homemade remedies, Haramaya, Meta, Kombolcha, east Hararghe, Ethiopia.
