UNLABELLED
Skin cancer education targeted to patients' needs is a goal of practicing dermatologists. Data regarding dermatology patients' baseline knowledge regarding skin cancer could aid clinicians in tailoring education efforts.
OBJECTIVE
To help quantify existing patients' existing visual recognition of skin cancer and common benign lesions, with the goal of helping to provide more targeted and meaningful education to patients.
METHODS
Two hundred forty-four adult patients from the dermatology clinics at University of Oklahoma and Loyola University Chicago were surveyed using digital images and questions regarding personal and family history of skin cancer, sun protection practices and sun protection knowledge.
RESULTS
Of the 244 subjects, 43% percent had a positive personal history of skin cancer, 40% had a positive family history. Scores differed minimally by personal history of skin cancer ( = .37) but differed more markedly by family history of skin cancer ( = .02).
LIMITATIONS
Lack of generalizability to the general public, age range of subjects.
CONCLUSIONS
There are knowledge gaps within the dermatology patient population regarding common benign and malignant skin lesions.
未标注
针对患者需求开展皮肤癌教育是皮肤科医生的一个目标。有关皮肤科患者皮肤癌基线知识的数据有助于临床医生调整教育工作。
目的
帮助量化现有患者对皮肤癌和常见良性病变的视觉识别能力，以便为患者提供更具针对性和意义的教育。
方法
使用数字图像以及关于皮肤癌个人和家族史、防晒措施和防晒知识的问题，对来自俄克拉荷马大学和芝加哥洛约拉大学皮肤科诊所的244名成年患者进行了调查。
结果
在244名受试者中，43%有皮肤癌个人史阳性，40%有家族史阳性。得分因皮肤癌个人史的差异最小（=0.37），但因皮肤癌家族史的差异更显著（=0.02）。
局限性
缺乏对普通公众的普遍性，受试者年龄范围。
结论
皮肤科患者群体在常见良性和恶性皮肤病变方面存在知识差距。
