Abstract:
Objective:To understand the status and association of health literacy and self-management ability of hypertensive patients in the community and to provide reference for further intervention research.Methods:From June 2019 to October 2019, a random number table method was used to randomly select multiple streets or towns/townships, and then 401 residents in the community or village aged above 18 years of age diagnosed as hypertension were selected as the subjects of this study. The general data questionnaire, high blood pressure-health literacy scale into Chinese(C-HBP-HLS) and hypertension patients self-management behavior rating scale(HPSMBRS)were used to conduct one-to-one field survey. SPSS 24.0 was used to analyze the scores of health literacy and self-management behavior of patients with hypertension. SAS 9.4 was used to analyze the canonical correlation between health literacy and self-management behavior of patients with hypertension.Results:The score of health literacy and self-management ability were (38.94±17.56) points and (129.45±16.53) points, respectively.The results of canonical correlation analysis showed that the canonical correlation coefficient between health literacy and self-management behavior reached 0.57, which was mainly reflected in the great correlation between " drug label" and " diet management" .Conclusion:Attention should be paid to the positive effect of health literacy on self-management ability, and further intervention research should take the " drug label" and " written health literacy" dimensions of health literacy as entry points to effectively improve the self-management ability of hypertension patients in the community.
