To assess the knowledge on Zika virus infection among healthcare providers (doctors) in Aceh province, Indonesia.
A self-administered internet based survey was conducted from 3 May to 3 June 2016 among the members of doctor organizations in Aceh province. A set of validated, pre-tested questionnaire was used to measure knowledge regarding Zika infection and to collect a range of explanatory variables. A two-steps logistic regression analysis was employed to assess the association of participants' demographic, workplace characteristics and other explanatory variables with the knowledge.
A total of 442 participants included in the final analysis and 35.9% of them (159) had a good knowledge on Zika infection. Multivariate model revealed that type of occupation, type of workplace, availability of access to medical journals and experience made Zika disease as differential diagnose were associated with knowledge on Zika infection. In addition, three significant source of information regarding Zika were online media (60%), medical article or medical news (16.2%) and television (13.2%).
The knowledge of the doctors in Aceh regarding Zika infection is relatively low. Doctors who have a good knowledge on Zika infection are more confident to established Zika disease as differential diagnosis in their clinical setting. Therefore, such program to increase healthcare providers' knowledge regarding Zika infection is needed to screen potential carriers of Zika infection.
评估印度尼西亚亚齐省医疗服务提供者（医生）对寨卡病毒感染的了解情况。
于2016年5月3日至6月3日对亚齐省医生组织成员进行了一项基于网络的自填式调查。使用一组经过验证和预测试的问卷来衡量对寨卡感染的了解情况，并收集一系列解释变量。采用两步逻辑回归分析来评估参与者的人口统计学、工作场所特征及其他解释变量与知识水平之间的关联。
最终分析纳入了442名参与者，其中35.9%（159人）对寨卡感染有良好的了解。多变量模型显示，职业类型、工作场所类型、获取医学期刊的便利性以及将寨卡疾病作为鉴别诊断的经验与对寨卡感染的了解有关。此外，关于寨卡的三个重要信息来源是网络媒体（60%）、医学文章或医学新闻（16.2%）和电视（13.2%）。
亚齐省医生对寨卡感染的了解程度相对较低。对寨卡感染有良好了解的医生在临床中将寨卡疾病作为鉴别诊断时更有信心。因此，需要开展此类提高医疗服务提供者对寨卡感染了解程度的项目，以筛查寨卡感染的潜在携带者。
