To investigate the status of knowledge, attitude and practice (KAP) of foodborne parasitic diseases among middle school students in Xuzhou City, so as to provide a reference to the health education.
A total of four middle schools were selected and their students were investigated with the basic information questionnaire and questions of foodborne parasitic diseases.
The awareness rates of parasitic diseases, hazards and transmission were 56.50%, 66.33% and 70.50% respectively. The awareness rates of transmission of the diseases in the senior high school students and urban students were higher than those in the junior middle school students and rural students ( = 8.684, 8.470, both < 0.05). The formation rates of not drinking raw water and not eating raw food were higher among the female students than those among the male students ( = 7.675, 15.230, both < 0.05). The formation rate of not eating raw food was higher among the senior high school students than that among the junior middle school students ( = 49.276, < 0.001), and the formation rates of washing hands before meals and not keeping pets were higher among the urban students than those among the rural students ( = 5.833, 13.443, both < 0.05). Totally 64.83% of the students would not eat food that might be infected with foodborne parasites, and the proportion of girls was higher than that of the boys ( = 11.690, < 0.05), and 20.5% of the students would suggest others not eating food that might be infected with foodborne parasites, and 81% of the students would plan to get rid of bad habits.
The cognition of foodborne parasitic diseases is poor among the middle school students in Xuzhou City. The health education work on foodborne parasitic diseases should be strengthened.
了解徐州市中学生食源性寄生虫病知信行（KAP）现状，为开展健康教育提供参考依据。
选取4所中学，采用基本情况调查问卷和食源性寄生虫病相关问题对学生进行调查。
寄生虫病知晓率、危害知晓率和传播途径知晓率分别为56.50%、66.33%和70.50%。高中生和城市学生对疾病传播途径的知晓率高于初中生和农村学生（χ² = 8.684、8.470，P均<0.05）。女生不喝生水和不吃生食的形成率高于男生（χ² = 7.675、15.230，P均<0.05）。高中生不吃生食的形成率高于初中生（χ² = 49.276，P<0.001），城市学生饭前洗手和不养宠物的形成率高于农村学生（χ² = 5.833、13.443，P均<0.05）。64.83%的学生不会食用可能感染食源性寄生虫的食物，女生比例高于男生（χ² = 11.690，P<0.05）；20.5%的学生表示会建议他人不吃可能感染食源性寄生虫的食物；81%的学生表示有改掉不良习惯的打算。
徐州市中学生对食源性寄生虫病认知较差，应加强食源性寄生虫病健康教育工作。
