OBJECTIVES
This study aimed to assess the knowledge, attitudes and practices of the general public in Oman regarding the dangers of high salt intake.
METHODS
This cross-sectional questionnaire-based survey was conducted among the urban population in Oman. Individuals aged ≥18 were invited to join the study.
RESULTS
A total of 1,214 respondents (mean age 34 ± 10 years) answered the questionnaire. The majority were male (65.8%), employed (69.4%) and some were hypertensive (14.3%). Most (90.9%) were aware that excess salt can cause diseases such as hypertension and that it is either somewhat important (51.2%) or very important (42.9%) to reduce salt in the diet. However, only 42.2% said that they actively try to reduce salt in their diet.
CONCLUSION
Although most people in urban areas of Oman appear to be aware of the dangers of high salt intake, only a few are actively trying to reduce it. More educational activities are required to improve awareness.
目的
本研究旨在评估阿曼普通公众对高盐摄入危害的知识、态度和实践。
方法
本横断面问卷调查研究在阿曼的城市人口中进行。邀请年龄≥18 岁的个体参加研究。
结果
共有 1214 名受访者（平均年龄 34 ± 10 岁）回答了问卷。大多数为男性（65.8%），有工作（69.4%），有些是高血压患者（14.3%）。大多数人（90.9%）知道过量盐会导致高血压等疾病，并且减少饮食中的盐既有些重要（51.2%），也非常重要（42.9%）。然而，只有 42.2%的人表示他们积极尝试减少饮食中的盐。
结论
尽管阿曼城市地区的大多数人似乎都意识到高盐摄入的危害，但只有少数人积极尝试减少盐的摄入。需要开展更多的教育活动来提高认识。
