摘要： 目的了解儿童服药困难问题现状并分析其影响因素,为制定提高儿童服药依从性具体措施提供依据。方法对2018年1—4月在北部战区总医院就诊的600例年龄介于6个月~12周岁患儿家长进行问卷调查。调查结果分为服药困难组和非服药困难组,针对个人和家庭因素及不同干预措施进行统计学分析,对有统计差异的因素进行Logistic回归分析,明确影响因素并提出针对性预防措施。结果共回收558例有效问卷,儿童总体服药困难377例(67.6%),6月~<1岁,1~<3岁,3~<6岁,6~<12岁儿童服药困难发生率分别为83.8%,68.0%,67.2%和53.8%。单因素分析结果提示儿童年龄、父母受教育程度、职业及干预措施4项因素差异有统计学意义(P＜0.05)。多因素Logistic回归分析结果显示儿童服药困难的独立危险因素有儿童年龄、父母职业,采取干预措施为保护因素(P＜0.05)。结论儿童服药困难发生率较高,本研究显示儿童服药困难的发生与儿童年龄、父母职业及干预措施有关。
