Abstract:
With the introduction and implementation of relevant policies such as the outline of "Healthy China 2030" plan and Healthy China Action (2019-2030), the health service function of traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) has been valued and developed. TCM health literacy has become one of the important ways to promote the health of the whole population. TCM health preservation literacy refers to the ability of individuals to obtain TCM health preservation concepts, knowledge and technical services, and to make correct health care decisions to promote their own health by using knowledge and information as well as medical and technical services. According to survey data from the National Administration of Traditional Chinese Medicine, the compliance rate of TCM health literacy among Chinese citizens has increased from 8.55% in 2014 to 24.62% in 2023, and is still on the rise. However, there are differences in the level of TCM health literacy among different regions, genders, and occupational groups. This article retrieves relevant literature published on CNKI and Wanfang Data from the establishment of the databases until December 2024. The content is sorted out using thematic analysis, and a review is conducted on the concept, evaluation tools, current status, and influencing factors of TCM health literacy. This article provides a reference for enhancing public health awareness and improving the level of TCM health literacy.
