Abstract
Meme kanseri Türkiye'de kadınlarda en sık görülen kanser türlerinden biridir. Meme kanserini erken teşhisinde kullanılan metotlar sağlık inanç değişkenleri ile ilişkilendirilmiştir. Amaç: Bu araştırmanın amacı, kadınların meme kanserini tarama davranışları ile ilgili sağlık inançlarını belirlemekti. Metot: Bu tanımlayıcı ve kesitsel çalışma, 2009 Mayıs ve Ekim ayları arasında Niğde Kanser Erken Teşhis, Tarama ve Eğitim Merkezi'ne başvuran 344 kadın ile gerçekleştirildi. Veriler, sosyo-demografik özellikler ve meme kanseri risk faktörlerini içeren bir anket formu ve Sağlık İnanç Modeli Ölçeği kullanılarak toplanmıştır. Veri analizi frekans ve Mann-Whitney U Testi kullanılarak gerçekleştirildi. <0.05 olan p değerleri istatistiksel olarak anlamlı kabul edildi. Bulgular: Kadınların %9.6'sı düzenli olarak Kendi Kendine Meme Muayenesi (KKMM) yaptıklarını ve 40 yaşın üzerinde olanların %54.5'inin mamografi (MMG) çektirmiş oldukları bulundu. Sağlık İnanç Modeli Ölçeği'nden alınan alt ölçek ortanca puanları "duyarlılık" için 6.0, "önemseme" için 22.0, "kendi kendine meme muayenesinin yararları" için 16.0, "kendi kendine meme muayenesi engelleri" için 16.0, "kendi kendine meme muayenesi öz-etkililiği" için 40.0 ve "sağlık motivasyonu" için 20.0, "mamografi yararları" için 20.0 ve "mamografi engelleri" için 22.0'dı. Düzenli KKMM yapma ve mamografi çektirme ile Sağlık İnanç Modelinin alt ölçek puanları arasında istatistiksel olarak anlamlı bir fark bulmadık. Araştırma sonuçlarına göre, kadınlarda KKMM yapma oranını düşük bulundu. Bu nedenle, KETEM meme kanseri tarama metotları ile ilgili eğitim programları planlandı
Breast cancer is one of the most common malignancies affecting women in Turkey. The early detection methods for breast cancer have been associated with health belief variables. Objectives: The purpose of this study was to determine women's health beliefs related to breast cancer screening behaviours. Methods: This study was designed as descriptive and cross-sectional survey and was performed on 344 women who applied the Nigde Cancer Early Diagnosis, Screening and Education Center between May and October 2009. The data were collected using a questionnaire which consists of socio-demographic characteristics and breast cancer risk factors and Health Belief Model Scale. Data analysis was performed using frequency and Mann-Whitney U Test. All values of p<0.05 was considered statistically significant. Results: We found that 9.6% of women performed Breast SelfExamination (BSE) regularly and 54.5% of over the age of 40 had previously undergone a mammography (MMG). The subscales median scores related to Health Belief Model Scale were 6.0 for susceptibility, 22.0 for seriousness, 16.0 for benefits of breast self-examination, 16.0 for barriers to breast self-examination, 40.0 for confidence, and 20.0 for health motivation, 20.0 for benefits of mammography, and 22.0 for barriers to mammography. We did not find a statistically significant difference between the mean practice of breast self-examination and mammography and the Health Belief Model Scale subscales scores (p>0.05). According to study results, the rate of regular BSE performance rate for women was found low. Therefore, KETEM was planned to the training programs related to breast cancer screening methods
