To determine pediatricians' routine screening urinalysis practices.
This was a survey of a nationally representative sample of pediatricians practicing in the U.S. regarding their screening urinalysis practices in childhood.
Of the 1502 pediatricians sampled, 653 eligible subjects participated, for an estimated response rate of 49.5%. The vast majority of participants (78%) routinely screen asymptomatic children with urinalysis in at least 1 age group. Pediatricians' screening urinalysis practice varies based on age group: 9% screen during infancy (<1 year), 60% screen during early childhood (1 up to 5 years), 55% screen during late childhood (5 to 12 years), and 58% screen during adolescence (13 to 20 years). The majority of pediatricians (58%) routinely screen more than 1 age group. Some 38% of the pediatricians surveyed believe that the overall health of children is improved by screening all asymptomatic children with urinalysis.
Many pediatricians routinely conduct screening urinalysis during childhood, frequently at ages not recommended by the American Academy of Pediatrics.
确定儿科医生进行常规筛查性尿液分析的做法。
这是一项针对在美国执业的具有全国代表性的儿科医生样本进行的调查,内容涉及他们在儿童期进行筛查性尿液分析的做法。
在抽取的1502名儿科医生中,653名符合条件的受试者参与了调查,估计回复率为49.5%。绝大多数参与者(78%)会对至少1个年龄组的无症状儿童进行常规尿液分析筛查。儿科医生的筛查性尿液分析做法因年龄组而异:9%在婴儿期(<1岁)进行筛查,60%在幼儿期(1至5岁)进行筛查,55%在儿童后期(5至12岁)进行筛查,58%在青春期(13至20岁)进行筛查。大多数儿科医生(58%)会对不止1个年龄组进行常规筛查。约38%接受调查的儿科医生认为,对所有无症状儿童进行尿液分析筛查可改善儿童的整体健康状况。
许多儿科医生在儿童期常规进行筛查性尿液分析,且经常在未被美国儿科学会推荐的年龄进行。
