Abstract:
Objective To explore the application value of stepped screening on hypertension with self-report health measurement questionnaire by comparing the accuracy of the different levels of screening. Methods A total of 6 715 subjects with hypertension (average age of 53.47 ± 11.07 years) were selected from those who completed the physical examination in the department of health management in the Third Xiangya Hospital of Central South University for questionnaire survey, routine inspection and special inspection for hypertension. And the patients were divided into four groups based on their hypertension risk levels: the questionnaire survey group, routine inspection group, questionnaire + routine inspection group and questionnaire+routine inspection+special inspection group. The results were compared respectively to calculate the sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value and coincidence rate of single inspection and joint inspection. Results Nearly 90.00%of the subjects had hypertension associated with the risk factors, while 20.83% of the subjects had hypertension associated with other clinical diseases (the highest percentage was seen in hypertension with diabetes as 14.88%). According to the guidelines of stratification, 3.41% of the patients were at low risk, 23.78% at moderate risk, 47.85% at high risk, and 24.96% at extremely high risk. Sensitivity and specificity of routine inspection were 95.56%and 45.51%in judgment of moderate risk, which became 100.00%and 45.51%after addition of questionnaire survey;as a result, thesensitivity increased. Sensitivity and specificity of routine inspection were 15.03%and 96.28%in judgment of high risk, which became 30.03% and 99.14% after addition of questionnaire survey; as a result, the sensitivity doubled. Sensitivity and specificity of routine inspection were 15.03%and 100.00%in judgment of extremely high risk, and the sensitivity increased to 94.45%after addition of questionnaire survey, while the specificity remained unchanged. Conclusion Addition of questionnaire on the basis of routine physical examination could greatly increase the detection rate of hypertension patients at different risk levels, and increase the sensitivity as well as specificity for detection of moderate risk, high risk and extremely high risk. Therefore, health information and data acquired from the questionnaire and data obtained from the medical inspection equipment are equally important and suggest health management (physical examination) institutions to take questionnaire as a necessary and primary screening in physical examination and chronic disease screening.
