Abstract

Objective To understand the status and associated factors of knowledge, attitude and practice (KAP) about myopia prevention and control among young children's parents in Guangzhou, so as to provide reference for family health education on myopia prevention and control. Methods During January to February 2023, 4 584 parents of children from kindergarten and primary school (grade 1-3) were recruited. Two to three kindergartens and 2 primary schools were selected from each of the 3 urban districts and 2 suburb districts of Guangzhou by stratified cluster random sampling method. Parents of children were administered with online questionnaire survey on KAP about myopia prevention and control. Descriptive analyses and multivariate Logistic regression models were used. Results The proportion of parents reaching standard of KAP about myopia prevention and control was 61.54%, the knowledge awareness rate was 57.30%, the positive attitude holding rate was 76.98% and the health practice formation rate was 63.31%. Internet (70.35%) and lectures on school health education/health education materials (66.14%) were the most common ways for obtaining knowledge for parents. Multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed that urban area, higher education (college/undergraduate or above), annual household income 50 000-90 000, 100 000-290 000, 300 000-490 000, 500 000-590 000, and ≥600 000 Yuan, being aware of vision status (normal/poor) of their children, one or both parents with myopia, both parents with non-myopia, acquiring knowledge by multi-ways(2, 3, ≥4) were associated with higher KAP about myopia prev-ention and control (OR=1.23, 1.34, 1.36, 1.25, 1.49, 1.93, 2.34, 1.64, 1.66, 1.89, 3.48, 3.09, 2.42, 1.65, 2.29, 3.22, P < 0.05). Conclusion Knowledge and practice about myopia prevention and control among young children's parents in Guangzhou are insufficient, yet the attitude was satisfactory. It is necessary to carry out targeted education for parents, especially those living in suburb area, with low education and income level.
