AimTo explore men's health status and lifestyle risk profile and understand how they engage with preventive health care.DesignA cross‐sectional survey within a sequential mixed‐methods project.MethodsFour hundred thirty‐one adult males, working or volunteering for the New South Wales Rural Fire Service (NSW RFS) completed the survey between September and November 2022. The survey captured demographic data, health status and lifestyle characteristics, as well as engagement with preventive health care.ResultsNearly three‐quarters of respondents (n = 314; 72.8%) described themselves as being in good or very good health. Just 18.6% of respondents recorded a ‘healthy’ body mass index (BMI), despite only 29.9% having been told by a doctor that they were overweight/obese. Most (n = 344; 79.8%) respondents identified having a regular general practitioner (GP)/general practice. Nearly all respondents described having had blood pressure measurements (n = 403; 93.5%) and lipid profile (n = 346, 80.3%) in the last 2 years. Having a regular GP/general practice was significantly associated with engaging in all preventive and screening activities, except having a dental check.ConclusionOur findings demonstrate a significant opportunity to support men to reduce lifestyle risk, despite their current engagement with general practice. Strategies need to support men and health professionals to have conversations about risk and risk reduction to promote behaviour change. Nurses are well placed to provide preventive health care to men in general practice. The general practice nurse has a key role in communicating lifestyle risk, supporting patients in modifying their behaviours and reducing the impact of such factors on their health and well‐being.Implications for the Profession and/or Patient CareCommunicating the importance of lifestyle risk factors is imperative in supporting men to achieve behavioural change in the reduction in lifestyle risk. Nurses are well‐placed to take a leading role in this area.Reporting MethodThe STROBE checklist guided reporting.Patient or Public ContributionSurvey development was undertaken in collaboration with members of the NSW RFS. Key contacts within the organisation were involved in reviewing the analysis and interpretation of findings.

了解男性的生活方式风险状况及其对预防保健的参与:一项横断面调查
目的探索男性的健康状况和生活方式风险状况,并了解他们如何参与预防性医疗保健。设计连续混合方法项目中的横断面调查。方法431 名成年男性,在新南威尔士州农村消防工作或志愿服务服务 (新南威尔士州 RFS) 在 2022 年 9 月至 11 月期间完成了这项调查。该调查捕获了人口统计数据、健康状况和生活方式特征,以及预防性医疗保健的参与情况。结果近四分之三的受访者(n = 314;72.8%)描述了这一点他们自己身体状况良好或非常健康。尽管只有 29.9% 的受访者被医生告知他们超重/肥胖,但只有 18.6% 的受访者体重指数 (BMI) 为“健康”。大多数(n = 344;79.8%)受访者表示拥有一名正规的全科医生 (GP)/全科诊所。几乎所有受访者都表示在过去 2 年中曾进行过血压测量(n = 403;93.5%)和血脂分析(n = 346,80.3%)。除牙科检查外,定期去看全科医生/全科诊所与参与所有预防和筛查活动显着相关。结论我们的研究结果表明,尽管男性目前正在从事全科诊所,但我们的研究结果表明,这是支持男性降低生活方式风险的重要机会。战略需要支持男性和卫生专业人员就风险和降低风险进行对话,以促进行为改变。护士有能力在一般实践中为男性提供预防性保健服务。全科护士在传达生活方式风险、支持患者改变行为以及减少这些因素对其健康和福祉的影响方面发挥着关键作用。对职业和/或患者护理的影响宣传生活方式风险因素的重要性对于支持男性实现行为改变以降低生活方式风险至关重要。护士有能力在这一领域发挥主导作用。报告方法 STROBE 检查表指导报告。患者或公众贡献调查的开发是与新南威尔士州 RFS 成员合作进行的。组织内的主要联系人参与了对调查结果的分析和解释的审查。
