Abstract

Amaç: Hemşireler kanser tarama testleri ve kanser erken tanısı konusunda kadınlara doğru bilgi verebilecek ve etkin iletişim kurabilecek niteliğe sahip sağlık çalışanları grubunu oluşturmaktadır. Bu çalışmanın öncelikli amacı hemşirelerin tarama testleri konusundaki bilgi seviyesinin araştırılması, çeşitli kanser formlarının risk faktörleri ile semptomları hakkındaki bilgi düzeylerinin belirlenmesi ve tarama testlerine ilişkin tutum ve farkındalıklarını ortaya çıkarmak amacıyla tasarlanmıştır
Gereç ve Yöntem: Araştırma, bir Vakıf Üniversitesi Uygulama ve Araştırma Merkezi'nde görev yapan kadın hemşireler arasında kesitsel bir araştırma olarak gerçekleştirilmiştir. Veri toplama aracı olarak gönüllülerin kendileri tarafından doldurulan soru formları kullanılmıştır. Veri setleri Windows için SPSS paket programı ile analiz edilmiştir ve “p” değeri <0,05 olduğunda farklar anlamlı olarak kabul edilmiştir.
Bulgular: Araştırma, hemşirelerin kanser semptomlarını tanıdıklarını ve risk faktörleri ile kanser tarama yöntemleri hakkında bilgi seviyelerinin yeterli olduğunu gösterdi. Ayrıca hemşirelerin kişisel olarak meme ve serviks kanseri tarama yöntemlerini kullanma eğilimlerinin daha yüksek olduğu gösterilmiştir.
Sonuç: Sağlık hizmetlerinde görev alan hemşireler, kadınların tarama testleri ve kanserin erken teşhisi konusunda kadınların bilgilendirilmesinde ve tavsiyelerde bulunma hususnda da etkin bir role sahiptir. Ayrıca ülkemizdeki kadınların meme ve jinekolojik kanserler hakkında soru sormak için hemşireleri kendilerine daha yakın hissetikleri bilinmektedir. Hemşirelerin farkındalıklarının yüksek olması topluma da olumlu yansıyacaktır. Böylece kadın sağlığın teşviki ve geliştirilmesi için bir model oluşturabilirler

Screening Behaviours and Awareness of Breast, Cervical and Colon Cancer Among Nurses in an Urban Hospital in The Mediterranean Region

Abstract

Objective: Nurses are the class of health professionals who can give women accurate information about cancer. The study was planned to research the demographic characteristics of the nurses and their knowledge level about screening tests, risk factors of breast, cervical and colorectal cancers and to reveal the state of awareness about symptoms and also their attitudes about screening tests.
Material and Methods: The research was designed as a cross-sectional study among female nurses in a Foundation University Research Center. The data collection tool is the self administered questionnaires. Data was evaluated by the SPSS for Windows. All tests were two-sided and the difference between the results was considered significant when p is <0.05
Results: The research showed that nurses were able to recognize cancer symptoms and had sufficient knowledge about the risk factors and malignancy screening methods. In addition, it has been observed that the tendency to personally use of cancer screening methods is higher in breast and cervix diseases.
Conclusion: Actually nurses in healthcare services have an effective role in informing and advising women about screening tests and for early detection of cancer. Further more the fact that women in our region feel themselves more closely to ask about breast and gynecological issues like breast and gynecological cancers. A promotion will be achieved in the primary and secondary prevention behaviors of patients with their advice and training to patients
