We hypothesize that there is a higher incidence of vasectomy within the military at a younger age based on this equal access health care system.
A review of the CHAMPS military database was conducted for men receiving vasectomies from 2000 to 2009. Age at vasectomy, number of children, race, religion, and marital status were recorded and incidence was computed.
Total of 82,945 vasectomies was performed. The overall incidence to have a vasectomy was approximately 7.10 per 1000 men. The highest rate of occurrence was 14.4 per 1000 men in men 30-34 years old. Whites had a higher rate than blacks at 10.03 per 1000 men compared to 6.27 per 1000 men. Protestants had the highest rate at 8.44 per 1000 men, and Jewish people had the lowest at 1.86 per 1000 men. Married men had a rate of 12.3 per 1000 men, whereas single men were 1.03 per 1000 men.
The incidence to have a vasectomy in the military was 7.10 per 1000 men, with an age adjusted rate at 8.66 per 1000 men. This information may assist primary care providers in discussing vasectomies as a permanent form of contraception.
基于这种平等的医疗保健系统,我们推测军队中输精管切除术的发生率在年轻时更高。
对2000年至2009年接受输精管切除术的男性的CHAMPS军事数据库进行了回顾。记录了输精管切除时的年龄、子女数量、种族、宗教和婚姻状况,并计算了发生率。
共进行了82945例输精管切除术。输精管切除术的总体发生率约为每1000名男性中有7.10例。发生率最高的是30 - 34岁的男性,为每1000名男性中有14.4例。白人的发生率高于黑人,分别为每1000名男性中有10.03例和6.27例。新教徒的发生率最高,为每1000名男性中有8.44例,而犹太人的发生率最低,为每1000名男性中有1.86例。已婚男性的发生率为每1000名男性中有12.3例,而单身男性为每1000名男性中有1.03例。
军队中输精管切除术的发生率为每1000名男性中有7.10例,年龄调整后的发生率为每1000名男性中有8.66例。这些信息可能有助于初级保健提供者将输精管切除术作为一种永久性避孕方式进行讨论。
