Scientific literature shows that physicians who engage in clinical prevention practices (CPP) have an influence on population health. This is why they are encouraged to apply such practices to promote healthy lifestyle habits in their patients, such as exercise, a healthy diet, and smoking cessation. However, as revealed in a recent study published in the Canadian journal of Public Health, lack of time is the main barrier for doctors in applying CPP. Following upon the results presented in their study, the authors suggest certain solutions that are likely to facilitate prevention practices. The goal of this commentary is to familiarize readers with another potential solution, relatively unknown in Canada, namely computer-tailoring. This innovative intervention method has the potential to facilitate prevention counselling because it provides a means of interacting with a large audience by formulating "customized" educational messages for each member.
科学文献表明,从事临床预防实践(CPP)的医生会对人群健康产生影响。这就是为什么鼓励他们应用此类实践,以促进患者养成健康的生活方式习惯,如锻炼、健康饮食和戒烟。然而,正如发表在《加拿大公共卫生杂志》上的一项近期研究所揭示的那样,时间不足是医生应用CPP的主要障碍。基于他们研究中呈现的结果,作者提出了一些可能有助于预防实践的解决方案。本评论的目的是让读者了解另一种在加拿大相对鲜为人知的潜在解决方案,即计算机定制。这种创新的干预方法有可能促进预防咨询,因为它通过为每个成员制定“定制化”教育信息,提供了一种与大量受众互动的方式。
