We assessed expectations to improve cardiovascular disease risk factors (CVD-RF) in participants to a health promotion program.
Blood pressure (BP), blood glucose (BG), blood total cholesterol (TC), body mass index (BMI), and self-reported smoking were assessed in 1,598 volunteers from the general public (men: 40%; mean age: 56.7 +/- 12.7 years) participating in a mobile health promotion program in the Vaud canton, Switzerland. Participants were asked about their expectation to have their CVD-RF improved at a next visit scheduled 2-3 years later.
Expectation for improved control was found in 90% of participants with elevated BP, 91% with elevated BG, 45% with elevated TC, 44% who were overweight, and 35% who were smoking. Expectation for TC improvement was reported more often by men, persons with high level of TC, and persons who had consulted a doctor in the past 12 months. Expectations to lose weight and to quit smoking were found more often in younger persons than the older ones.
Volunteers from the general population participating in a health promotion program expected improved control more often for hypertension and dysglycemia than for dyslipidemia, overweight and smoking.
我们评估了参加健康促进项目的参与者改善心血管疾病风险因素(CVD-RF)的期望。
对来自瑞士沃州参加移动健康促进项目的1598名普通公众志愿者(男性占40%;平均年龄:56.7±12.7岁)进行了血压(BP)、血糖(BG)、总胆固醇(TC)、体重指数(BMI)和自我报告的吸烟情况评估。参与者被问及他们对在2至3年后安排的下一次就诊时改善其CVD-RF的期望。
血压升高的参与者中有90%、血糖升高的参与者中有91%、总胆固醇升高的参与者中有45%、超重者中有44%以及吸烟者中有35%期望病情得到改善。男性、总胆固醇水平高的人以及在过去12个月内咨询过医生的人更常报告期望总胆固醇得到改善。年轻人比年长者更常期望减肥和戒烟。
参加健康促进项目的普通人群志愿者对高血压和血糖异常病情改善的期望比对血脂异常、超重和吸烟病情改善的期望更常见。
