Abstract

Objective To investigate hydration status and knowledge, attitude and behavior regarding hydration among primary school students in a rural area of Guangxi, so as to provide guidance for hydration education in schools. Methods In october 2022, two rural township boarding primary schools with similar basic conditions including drinking water infrastructure, were selected in Guangxi.A total of 439 students in grades 3-6 from these two schools were selected as participants by the cluster sampling.Urinary osmolality of students was assessed to evaluate the random hydration status, and all the participants filled out the drinking water survey. Results About 35.54% of the participants were in normal hydration status (urine osmolality ≤800 mOsm/kg) during the interview, which was higher among female than male students (44.50%, 26.70%, χ²=15.18, P < 0.05).Among the participants, the overall awareness rate of knowledge was 37.36%, which was higher in the higher grades than in the lower grades (42.32%, 31.75%, χ²=26.10, P < 0.05).The overall positive attitude holding rate of students was 66.20%, more for girls than boys (71.27%, 61.20%) and higher for upper grades than lower grades (68.78%, 63.29%)(χ²=39.82, 11.77, P < 0.05).The overall correct drinking behavior formation rate was 40.83%, more for girls than boys (44.38%, 37.33%) and higher for upper grades than lower grades (43.56%, 37.74%)(χ²=9.03, 6.13, P < 0.05).The random hydration status of primary school students at school was associated with their drinking pattern (χ²=5.09, P < 0.05), and incorrect water intake patterns increased the risk of dehydration (OR=1.61, 95%CI=1.06-2.44, P < 0.05).No statistical association was found between the percentage of students with normal hydration status and its total rate of knowledge about drinking water, positive attitudes held and correct behaviors formed in the two schools at each grade level (P>0.05). Conclusion The proportion of primary school students with insufficient random hydration status during school in Guangxi is relatively high.The rates of awareness, concept holding and habit formation of healthy drinking water are low.It is recommended to strengthen the propaganda and education, and guide students to develop healthy drinking habits.
