Abstract:
Objective:To investigate the level of injury first aid skills and its influencing factors among parents of preschool children in Dongxihu District, Wuhan City, so as to provide insights into carrying out targeted health education work.
Methods:Parents of preschool children from kindergarten in Dongxihu District were selected using multi-stage stratified cluster sampling method. Basic information of preschool children, parents' demographic information, and parents' knowledge of injury first aid skills were collected through questionnaires. The level of injury first aid skills among parents was analyzed and its influencing factors were identified using a multivariable logistic regression model.
Results:A total of 1 148 questionnaires were allocated and 1 131 valid questionnaires were recovered, with an effective recovery rate of 98.52%. The respondents included 242 men (21.40%) and 889 women (78.60%). The parents surveyed were mainly mothers, with 862 accounting for 76.22%. The level of injury first aid skills was 39.43%. Among the individual injury first aid skills, the proportions of mastering the treatment of cardiac arrest and arm fracture were relatively high, which were 94.69% and 94.16%, respectively, while the proportion of mastering the correct steps of cardiopulmonary resuscitation was the lowest, at 31.21%. Multivariable logistic regression analysis showed that the grade of children (middle class, OR=1.374, 95%CI: 1.021-1.847; senior class, OR=1.561, 95%CI: 1.147-2.125), age (30 to 34 years old, OR=1.712, 95%CI: 1.170-2.505), education level (high school/technical secondary school and below, OR=0.664, 95%CI: 0.515-0.857), and having learned injury first aid skills (OR=1.653, 95%CI: 1.284-2.129) were influencing factors of injury first aid skills among parents of preschool children.
Conclusions:The level of injury first aid skills among parents of preschool children is relatively low. The first aid ability of parents whose children are in small classes, older, less educated, and have not learned injury first aid skills should be specifically improved.
