Abstract:
Objective To investigate the current health status of the targeted recipients of the precision poverty alleviation program in Taiziwan Village, Shazhenxi Town, Zigui County and explore its influencing factors, and to provide reference for the formulation of local health poverty alleviation policies. Methods A cluster sampling method was used to investigate 115 poverty alleviation recipients aged 18 and above in Taiziwan Village. The status of “physiological health” and “mental health” was investigated using the international general SF-36 (Chinese version) health scale. Results The survey subjects were mainly the people with advanced age, low education background and suffering from chronic diseases. Except for the physiological function score being more than 70 points, the scores of other dimensions were all 60 points around. The scores were 61.74±19.86 points for physical health and 59.05±16.91 points for mental health, respectively. People aged 60 and above scored lower in all dimensions than those aged under 60. Factors that affected both physical and mental health of the whole population were advanced age and chronic diseases. While the factors that affected physical health of people aged 60 and above were chronic diseases, the factors that affected mental health were chronic diseases and a long interval between children's home visits. Conclusion The health status of people aged 60 and above is worse than that of people aged below 60. Their physical health is affected by chronic diseases, and their mental health is affected by chronic diseases and children's visit cycles. While formulating poverty alleviation policies for physical health, an attention should also be paid to mental health.
