To investigate whether training in the department of urology will help interns acquire more knowledge on male reproductive health in such aspects as male erectile dysfunction (ED), premature ejaculation, male infertility (PE), male contraception, and so on.
Sixty interns receiving rotatory training in the Department of Urology of the Peking University Third Hospital were recruited to complete a questionnaire designed by ourselves. A comparison was made of their knowledge on male reproductive health before and after their training in the department by using the chi-square statistical test in SPSS 11.0 software.
With regard to ED in such questions as "Do you regard ED as a disease affecting the aging male?" and "Do you regard ED as a local symptom of some male systemic disease?", all the interns knew significantly better after trained in the department of urology. Concerning the definition of ED and the effect of sildenafil citrate on ED, no significant difference was found in their knowledge between pre-training and post-training. As to patients' questions about ED, most of them showed interest but rarely made any initiative inquiries, which was not significantly changed after the training. Regarding PE, most of them knew very little even after trained, but they all thought of it as a disease affecting life quality. As regards male infertility, although some knew something about its definition and the normal parameters of semen routine analyses, others remained quite ignorant. As for male contraception, most of them knew little even after trained in the department.
Interns generally acquire more knowledge on male reproductive health after trained in the department of urology. However, in regard to male infertility and male contraception, their knowledge is quite insufficient, which implies the need for strengthening the training in the related aspects.
探讨泌尿外科实习培训是否有助于实习生在男性勃起功能障碍(ED)、早泄、男性不育症(PE)、男性避孕等男性生殖健康方面获取更多知识。
招募60名在北京大学第三医院泌尿外科接受轮转培训的实习生,完成自行设计的问卷。运用SPSS 11.0软件中的卡方统计检验,比较他们在该科室培训前后关于男性生殖健康的知识。
在诸如“你是否认为ED是影响老年男性的疾病?”以及“你是否认为ED是某些男性全身性疾病的局部症状?”等关于ED的问题上,所有实习生在泌尿外科培训后了解得明显更好。关于ED的定义以及枸橼酸西地那非对ED的作用,培训前后他们的知识水平无显著差异。对于患者关于ED的问题,他们大多表现出兴趣,但很少主动询问,培训后这一情况无明显改变。关于早泄,即使经过培训,他们大多数人了解甚少,但都认为这是一种影响生活质量的疾病。至于男性不育症,虽然有些人对其定义和精液常规分析的正常参数有所了解,但其他人仍然相当无知。至于男性避孕,即使在科室培训后,他们大多数人了解也很少。
实习生在泌尿外科培训后,通常在男性生殖健康方面获取了更多知识。然而,在男性不育症和男性避孕方面,他们的知识相当不足,这意味着需要加强相关方面的培训。
