目的:本研究旨在分析北部某區域醫院健康檢查之結果,來瞭解職場員工的高血脂情形及其相關因素,方法:研究方法為引用2008年北部某區域醫院為各類職場員工健康檢查的資料進行次級資料分析,共計1,833名受檢者,健康檢查資料包含身體理學檢查、血液生化值檢查、及問卷統計等內容,以瞭解員工的高血脂情形及相關的危險因子,資料以描述性統計、卡方分析及邏輯式迴歸進行分析。結果:結果發現整體高血脂的盛行率為13.2%,其中體位不正常者盛行率最高為24%,其次為抽菸18.4%,結果發現在控制重要變項以後,男性高血脂勝算比為2.10(95% CI=1.47-2.99);年齡大於41歲者高血脂勝算比為2.14(95% CI=1.50-3.07);從事電子業的員工相較於其他產業高血脂勝算比為1.49(95% CI=1.06-2.10);值得注意的是體重過重及肥胖者相較於體重正常者高血脂勝算比高達4.27(95% CI=3.12-5.84)。結論:本研究結果可提供公共衛生及職場健康促進進行高血脂預防保健政策之參考。
Objectives: The aim of this study was to investigate the relationship between the prevalence of hyperlipidemia among company staff and various related factors. Methods: This cross-sectional study was designed and the data was collected based on the records obtained at company routine health examinations during 2008. A total of 1833 company staff participated in the study. The instruments included a physical examination, a serum biochemical test and a screening service questionnaire and these were aimed at trying to understand the prevalence of hyperlipidemia and its associated risk factors. Descriptive analysis, chi-square tests and multiple logistic regression were used to analyze the data. Results: The prevalence rate for hyperlipidemia was 13.2%. The prevalence of obesity was relatively high at 24% and the prevalence of smoking was 18.4%. Using logistic regression analysis, the odds ratio for participants who were 41 years old and older having hyperlipidemia was 2.14 (95% CI=1.50-3.07) for all companies when compared to individuals 40 years old and younger. The odds ratio for staff working at high-tech companies having hyperlipidemia was 1.49 (95% CI=1.06-2.10) compared with the remaining companies. It is important to note that the odds ratio for overweight participants was very high at 4.27 (95% CI=3.12-5.84) compared to those of normal weight. Conclusions: These results will be useful as references for health providers in the future and will assist with the development of hyperlipidemia health prevention strategies that target company staff.
