Abstract:
ObjectiveTo understand the awareness of knowledge about chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and influencing factors among residents in Yangpu District, Shanghai. MethodsWe used cluster random sampling method to conduct face-to-face questionnaire surveys on selected household residents in 12 streets of Yangpu District. The survey questions included their understanding of COPD name, lung function test, and COPD related knowledge. Multivariate logistic regression analysis was used to analyze the influencing factors of awareness rate. ResultsA total of 1 440 people were ultimately included in the analysis, and the awareness rates of COPD name, lung function test, and COPD awareness were 19.93%, 18.61%, and 14.95%, respectively. Among the people who knew the name of COPD, awareness rate of shortness of breath or dyspnea was the highest (84.12%) in the three main symptoms of COPD. Among the main risk factors of COPD, second-hand smoke(86.78%)and smoking (85.82%) were the highest. The main ways to obtain knowledge of COPD names were through television (12.60%) and the internet (11.97%). The results of multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that men were significantly higher than women in the awareness of COPD name, lung function test, and COPD knowledge, with the OR values of (OR=1.39, 95%CI:1.08‒1.79), (OR=1.47,95%CI:1.12‒1.92) and (OR=1.37,95%CI:1.02‒1.84), respectively. The awareness rate of COPD names and lung function tests was the highest among people aged ≥ 65 years old, while the awareness rate of COPD knowledge was the highest among people aged 35‒50 years old. The awareness rate of COPD names was the highest among people with college education or above, civil servants, teachers, and medical staff, people with an annual household income of 100 000‒200 000 yuan. ConclusionThe overall awareness rate of COPD names, lung function tests, and COPD related knowledge among residents in Yangpu District is still at a low level. We should intensify the promotion and education of COPD among key groups such as women, young people, and those with low income, in order to improve the overall awareness rate of COPD among the population.
