Abstract:
Objective To study the morbidity of hypertension, hyperlipemia, hyperglycemia and hyperuricemia (4H) among government functionaries in littoral areas as well as awareness and needs for relevant knowledge, and to discuss the effect of nursing intervention on it. Methods Questionnaires were employed to investigate awareness of the 4H among 260 participants with physical examination and their needs for health knowledge. Morbidity in different age groups was calculated and targeted individual health guidance was implemented. Results Awareness of the relationship between 4H and dietary habit, obesity and coronary heart diseases was high ( 70. 0％, 67. 7％, 65. 8％, respectively), while awareness of the complications and prognosis of the 4H was low ( 10. 0％ ). Needs for health knowledge increased with age, and demand rate for health knowledge was 100％ in those above 61 years old. Morbidity of hyperlipemia was the highest among those of 31 to 60 years old before the nursing intervention. Morbidity of hypertension and hyperglycemia increased but that of hyperuricemia decreased with age. The morbidity of the 4H was 20.4％, 60.0％, 18.8％ and 37.7％before the nursing intervention and 17.3％, 49.2％, 15.4％ and 27.3％ after the intervention. The difference was statistically significant ( X2 =21.44,4. 90,5.82,20. 49 ; P ＜ 0. 05 ). ConclusionsThe morbidity of hypertension, hyperlipemia, hyperglycemia and hyperuricemia is relatively high among government functionaries in littoral areas. Targeted nursing intervention and health awareness is the key to the prevention of the 4H.
