Response rates for national population-based surveys have declined, including the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES). Declining response to the initial NHANES interview may impact consent and participation in downstream survey components such as record linkage, physical exams, storage of biological samples and phlebotomy. Interview response rates dropped from 68% in 2011-2012 to 53% in 2017-2018 for adults age 18 and older. Response was higher for children (1-17 years) but with a similar downward trend (2011-2012, 81%; 2017-2018, 65%). Despite declining interview response rates, changes in consent and response rates for downstream components over time have been mixed. Among those interviewed, the examination response rate was over 93%, consent for record linkage was over 90%, and consent for storage of specimens for future research was over 99%. The availability of a blood sample for storage ranged between 60%-65% for children and 78%-85% for adults.
包括国家健康和营养检查调查(NHANES)在内的全国性基于人口的调查的回应率有所下降。对NHANES初始访谈回应率的下降可能会影响下游调查环节的同意率和参与度,如下游调查环节包括记录链接、体格检查、生物样本储存和静脉穿刺采血。18岁及以上成年人的访谈回应率从2011 - 2012年的68%降至2017 - 2018年的53%。儿童(1 - 17岁)的回应率较高,但也呈现类似的下降趋势(2011 - 2012年为81%;2017 - 2018年为65%)。尽管访谈回应率下降,但随着时间推移,下游环节的同意率和回应率变化不一。在接受访谈的人群中,检查回应率超过93%,记录链接同意率超过90%,为未来研究储存标本的同意率超过99%。儿童可用于储存的血样比例在60% - 65%之间,成人为78% - 85%。
