Objective: To determine the risk with gynecological problems on the health of female university students. Methods: The study was conducted as a descriptive in university in Central Anatolia, Turkey. The research population was composed of 1305 female university students studying at a university in Central Anatolia. The study was conducted between January and March 2017. The data were collected through a questionnaire consisting of 23 questions prepared by the researchers to determine the socio-demographic characteristics of the participants and the risk with gynecological problems they encountered. Numerical and percentage statistics were used to analyze the data. Results: About 65.4 percent of the female students in this study previously had gynecological examination, and 38.8 percent of them were diagnosed with gynaecological problems. It was found that 87.6 percent of the female students had risk with gynecological disorders. the most common ones being dysmenorrhoea (63.2%), premenstrual syndrome (56.7%), urinary tract infection (22.4%), and polycystic ovarian syndrome (13%), respectively. Conclusions: It was found that nearly all the young girls had risk with gynecological problems and nearly half of them were diagnosed with different gynaecological disorders. doi: https://doi.org/10.12669/pjms.35.3.834 How to cite this:Akarsu RH, Alsac SY.

Tanımlayıcı türde olan bu çalışma hemşirelik öğrencilerinin Kendi Kendine Meme Muayenesi (KKMM) bilme ve uygulama durumlarını ve etkileyen faktörleri belirlemek amacıyla yapıldı. Gereç ve Yöntem: Çalışmanın örneklemini İç Anadolu Bölgesinde bir üniversitenin hemşirelik bölümüne kayıtlı 219 kız öğrenci oluşturdu. Verilerin toplanması için araştırmacılar tarafından literatür taranarak oluşturulan anket formu kullanılmıştır. Verilerin bilgisayar ortamında değerlendirildi. Verilerin değerlendirilmesinde sayı, yüzde dağılımları ve ki-kare testi kullanıldı. Bulgular: Öğrencilerin %49.3'ünün KKMM bildiği, bu öğrencilerin de %12.1'inin düzenli olarak KKMM yaptığı saptandı. Çalışmaya katılan öğrencilerin yaklaşık yarısının KKKMM bilmekte ancak çok azı KKMM uygulamaktadır. Sonuç: Öğrencilerin bazı sağlıklı yaşam biçimi davranışları KKMM bilme ve uygulama durumlarını etkilememektedir.
Bu araştırma, annelerin emzirmeyi sonlandırma sürecine ilişkin bilgilerini ve uygulamalarını belirlemek amacıyla yapılmıştır. Yöntem: Tanımlayıcı ve kesitsel tipteki araştırma 14.04.2015-15.06.2015 tarihleri arasında, İç Anadolu'da bir il merkezinde bulunan 8 Aile Sağlığı Merkezi'nde gerçekleştirildi. Araştırmanın evrenini 0-36 aylık çocuğa sahip, emzirme deneyimi olan anneler oluşturdu. Örnekleme belirtilen tarihler arasında Aile Sağlığı Merkezleri'ne başvuran ve araştırmaya katılmayı kabul eden 313 anne alındı. Araştırmaya başlamadan önce Bozok Üniversitesi Tıp Fakültesi Klinik Araştırmalar Etik Kurulu'ndan (06.05.2015/70) izin, kurum izni ve annelerden sözel onam alındı. Bulgular: Çalışmaya katılan annelerin emzirme süresinin ortalama 15.52±8.6 ay olduğu ve %22.1'inin ilk altı ay içinde emzirmeyi sonlandırdığı bulundu. Annelerin %36.7'sinin bebeğini yeterince emzirdiğini düşündüğü için emzirmeyi sonlandırdığı belirlendi. Emzirmeyi sonlandırmak için annelerin %14.1'inin göğsüne acı/kötü koku sürdüğü ya da meme ucunu kapattığı, %65.5'inin ise bu süreçte herhangi bir destek almadığı bulundu. Sonuç: Bu çalışmada, annelerin çoğunun bebeklerini doğar doğmaz emzirmeye başladıkları, anne sütünü artırmaya ilişkin çeşitli yöntemler kullandıkları ancak, emzirmeyi sonlandırma sürecine ilişkin bilgi düzeylerinin yeterli olmadığı belirlendi. Bu sonuçlar doğrultusunda emzirme süreci ve emzirmeyi sonlandırma ile ilgili annelere sağlık personeli tarafından yeterli bilgi ve eğitimlerin verilmesi ve bu konuda yapılacak başka çalışmalarla literatüre katkı sağlanması önerilmektedir.
Hepatitis A is a worldwide vaccine-preventable infection. The aim of our study was to determine the serological status of hepatitis A virus (HAV) among first-year nursing students in Turkey. A sample of 423 students was used and immunoglobulin G antibodies against HAV were determined quantitatively by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay on each. Overall, 84.6% had no immunity to HAV, making them at risk for HAV, and so susceptible to nosocomial transmission. Nursing students who work in high-risk wards must be vaccinated against hepatitis A.
ABS TRACTObjective: The risk of occupational exposure to blood borne pathogens (hepatitis B and hepatitis C) via sharp injuries such as needle stick injuries among health care workers, especially dental, nursing and midwifery students is a challenging issue. The aim of this prospective study is to evaluate the hepatitis B and hepatitis C seroprevelances of students in Bozok University High School of Health, to investigate the level of conscious on this issue and also to determine nonimmunised students and to vaccine them. Materials and Methods:In our study, a questionnaire form was applied to students of Bozok University High School of Health between February 2013-April 2013 and answers were evaluated with their HBsAg, Anti-Hbs, Anti-HBcIgG and Anti-HCV results. Results:One hundred and forty two students were included to the study. 80 (56.3%) students were studying at 1st class, 42 (29.6%) students were at 2 nd class, 9 (6.3%) were at 3 rd . Class and 11 (%7.8) were at 4 th . class. 115 (81%) students were female, 27 (19%) students were male, mean age was 20. 1±1.8 (18-25). Two (1.4%) students were HBsAg positive,127 (89.4%) students were anti-HBs positive and nine (6.3%) students were anti-HBcIgG positive. Anti-HCV was negative in all students. Two (28.6%) of seven students' anti-HbcIgG values were positive who were exposured jaundice during childhood (p=0.013). Two of nine students' HBsAg positivity remained whose anti-HBcIgG value were positive, seven of these nine students Anti-HBs values became positive. 120 (94.5%) of 127 Anti-HBs positive students had been acquired immunization by vaccine. 13 (9.2%) students were taken into vaccine program whose HBsAg, Anti-HBcIgG and Anti-Hbs values were negative.
