Investigation on Knowledge Awareness of Antibiotics among Parents of Children in Haikou
Objective: To investigate the knowledge awareness of antibiotics among parents of children in Haikou
so as to provide reference for rational use of antibiotics in pediatrics. Methods: Questionnaires were distributed to parents of children in the pediatric outpatient clinics of the large general hospital
maternal and child health care hospital and pediatric inpatients in Haikou to investigate and study the knowledge awareness of antibiotics use safety. Results: A total of 5
300 questionnaires were distributed
5
083 were recovered
and 5
000 were effective
with the effective rate of 98.37%. Results showed that the safety awareness and knowledge of antibiotics in parents of children were related to the educational level and place of residence. Parents with higher education level and living in large and medium-sized cities had higher safety awareness of antibiotics and higher degree of knowledge of antibiotics
and the difference was statistically significant (P<0.05). Conclusion: It was suggested that relevant departments should strengthen the degree of knowledge of antibiotics for the public. Pharmacists should play an active role by providing medication consultation and guidance to patients to enhance the safety awareness of antibiotics by parents of children
promote the rational use of antibiotic and reduce the risk of adverse drug reactions.
