Index design of core elements of health examination report and pilot data analysis / 中华健康管理学杂志

ABSTRACT

Objective:To analyze the core elements′ index design of physical examination reports and pilot data.Methods:We searched and analyzed the core element indexes of the physical examination report in databases such as CNKI and Wanfang through the literature analysis method, forming the initial core element indicator set. Special working meetings were organized to discuss revisions and improvements. The core elements′ index set was formed using a mixed research method combined with the quantitative analysis results of pilot data and expert opinions. Six hundred and thirteen cases from five hospitals were included in this study, including Anzhen Hospital, Peking University Third Hospital, Beijing Physical Examination Center, Beijing Tongren Hospital, China-Japan friendship hospital.Results:The subjects were (49.5±17.6) years old, including 302 males (49.3%) and 311 females (50.7%). The physical examination conclusion indicates that the number of health problems is between five and eight, with no significant difference between men and women. The health history data analysis of different sexes showed that hypertension in men was significantly higher than in women (17.9% vs. 10.6%, P=0.010). The lifestyle and eating habits survey showed that men had significantly higher incidences of smoking and drinking than women (24.8% vs. 2.2%, P?0.001; 9.9% vs. 1.3%, P?0.001). The exercise habits and sleep survey showed that the proportion of men who did not exercise was lower than that of women (13.2% vs. 22.8%, P=0.022). There was no statistically significant difference in sleep duration between the sexes. Conclusions:The core elements of health examination reports can standardize the collection of physical examination data and improve its sharing and application. This can allow the reports to better assist the decisions based upon physical examination report data.
