摘要

超重和肥胖在世界范围内已被确定为相当大的健康风险。目的:了解护士中超重、肥胖的患病率及其与人口学变量的关系。方法:2019年3月至8月,在Ruth KM Pfau民用医院和卡拉奇陶氏大学医院进行了为期6个月的横断面分析研究。采用非概率方便抽样方法,对299名男女受试者进行调查。采用卡方检验确定相关因素。p值≤0.05为显著性。结果:299名护士中,男性149名(49.8%),占一半。在299名参与者中,75人(25.1%)超重或肥胖。体重不足13例(4.3%),体重正常211例(70.6%)。研究护士的平均年龄为29.52±8.568,工作经验为7.35±6.177,BMI为23.30±3.148。性别(p值=0.003)、受教育程度(p值=0.002)和工作性质(p值=0.003)与BMI有统计学意义。结论:本研究得出的结论是,大多数研究对象BMI正常,少数研究对象肥胖。然而,四分之一的护士被认为超重。此外,BMI与性别、工作性质和护士教育程度之间存在显著关联。

Overweight, Obesity and its Associated Factors among Nurses at Tertiary Care Hospitals Karachi
Overweight and obesity have been identified as considerable health risks worldwide. Objective: To identify the prevalence of overweight, and obesity and its association with demographic variables among nurses. Methods: A cross-sectional analytical study was conducted at Dr. Ruth KM Pfau Civil Hospital and Dow University Hospital Karachi over a period of six months of periods from March to August 2019. A total of 299 subjects of both genders were approached by the non-probability convenient sampling method. Chi-square test was applied to identify the associated factors. P-value ≤ 0.05 counted as significant. Results: Out of 299, half of the study nurses 149 (49.8%) were male. Among 299 participants, 75 (25.1%) of them were overweight or obese. While 13 (4.3%) were underweight and 211 (70.6%) were normal weight. Mean age, working experience, and BMI were found 29.52 ± 8.568, 7.35 ± 6.177, and 23.30 ± 3.148 respectively of the study nurses. Gender (p-value=0.003), educational status (p-value=0.002), and nature of the job (p-value=0.003) of the participants were found statistically significant with BMI. Conclusions: Present study concluded that the majority of study participants had normal BMI and a small number of study subjects were found obese. However, a quarter of nurses are recognized as overweight. Moreover, a significant association was established between BMI with gender, the nature of the job, and the education of nurses.
