Abstract

Introduction: Leishmaniasis is a common parasitic disease in tropical and subtropical regions of the world and is also one of the major health problems in Iran. This study was designed to assess the Knowledge, Attitude, and Practice of female students of Ahvaz Jundishapur University of Medical Sciences about Cutaneous Leishmaniasis. Methods: The data collection tool of this cross-sectional study was a researcher-made questionnaire with 28 questions in 4 parts (demographics, Knowledge, Attitude, and Practice). After evaluating the validity and reliability of the questionnaire, it was completed by 384 female students of Ahvaz Jundishapur University of Medical Sciences who were selected by stratified sampling method. SPSS software and Spearman correlation coefficient and Chi-square tests were used to analyze the data. Results: The highest level of Knowledge was related to the the medical school students. A significant relationship was observed between the level of study and type of faculty with students' Knowledge (P-value˂ 0. 0001). The best Attitude was for BS students. Significant correlation was observed between the level of education and the Attitude towards Cutaneous Leishmaniasis (P-value= 0. 019). Students of medical and health schools had good Practice in dealing with the disease. Conclusion: In general, due to the relatively poor Knowledge, Attitude, and Practice of the students, who are the first level of service givers to the the society, it is essential to educate them about the Cutaneous Leishmaniasis.
