“…A study conducted in Turkey 27 reported that 78% of individuals in households considered organ donation as a gift of life to the others. In another study from Turkey, 15 participants who had a relative receiving dialysis treatment were willing to donate their kidney was found significantly higher than the rate of the participants who had no relative receiving dialysis treatment. We think that this result may differ according to the countries and cultural characteristics.…”

“…Although this difference was not found to be statistically significant, it was similar in keeping with previous studies. 15,20 In El-Shoubaki and Bener's study, 21 majority of the participants from Qatari population preferred organ donating for their close relatives. In Rios et al's study from Spain, 16 respondents that had previous organ donation experience through family had a more favorable opinion towards organ donation than who had not had any experience.…”

“…In Rios et al's study from Spain, 16 respondents that had previous organ donation experience through family had a more favorable opinion towards organ donation than who had not had any experience. Similarly in Turkey, another study 15 assessed relatives of hemodialysis patients' organ donation attitudes, and found the rate of wishing to donate among participants with relatives receiving dialysis treatment meaningfully higher than those who do not have. This result showed that relatives of hemodialysis patients have positive attitudes towards organ donation.…”

“…12 Due to the increased rate of kidney failure in population or relatives of patients with kidney failure constitute an important group that may influence donations. [13][14][15] According to a study results, people who had family members with kidney failure were more favor of donation than those who had not. 16 Many factors may influence relatives' opinions about the organ donation and it may also be a barrier to successful organ donation.…”

“…16 Topbaş ve Taştan'ın yürüttüğü bir çalışmada da diyaliz tedavisi gören bir akrabası olan bireylerin böbrek nakline yönelik daha pozitif tutum gösterdikleri belirlenmiştir. 26 Bu bulgular, yakınında organ yetmezliği olan bireylerin, organ yetmezliğine bağlı yaşanan problemleri yakınlarında bizzat görmeleri ve sevdikleri kişileri kaybetme korkusu nedeni ile konuya daha duyarlı bakmalarından kaynaklanabilir.…”

Bu çalışmada, bir aile sağlığı merkezine başvuran bireylerin organ bağışına ilişkin tutumlarının belirlenmesi amaçlandı. Gereç ve Yöntemler: Araştırma, tanımlayıcı kesitsel tipte uygulandı. Çalışmaya 582 birey alındı. Veri toplamada, araştırmacılar tarafından güncel literatür kullanılarak hazırlanan Tanıtıcı Bilgiler Formu ve Organ Bağışı Tutum Ölçeği kullanıldı. Bulgular: Çalışmaya alınan bireylerin %58,2'sinin organlarını bağışlamak istediği, ancak sadece %3,3'ünün organ bağış kartı olduğu, %37,8'inin organ bağışını dini açıdan uygun görmediği için kabul etmediği, %74,1'inin organ bağışı hakkında bilgi sahibi olduğu ve %67'sinin organ bağış oranını artırmak için organ bağışının önemi konusunda toplumsal bilinçlendirme yapılmasını önerdiği saptandı. Bireylerin, Yardımseverlik ve Ahlaki Değer/ İnançlar (pozitif tutum) ölçek skorunun 95,52±20,80, toplam negatif tutum ölçek skorunun 58,19±21,35 olduğu ve organ bağışına yönelik pozitif tutum gösterdiği belirlendi. Çalışmada ayrıca organ nakli bilgisi olan, organ bağışını dini açıdan uygun bulan, öldükten sonra organlarını bağışlamak isteyen ve yakınında organ yetmezliği olan kişiler bulunan bireylerin pozitif ölçek skorunun daha yüksek, negatif tutum genel ve ölçek alt grup skorlarının daha düşük olduğu, gruplar arası farkın istatistiksel açıdan anlamlı olduğu belirlendi (p<0,05). Sonuç: Çalışmamızda, bireylerin organ bağışına yönelik pozitif tutum göstermesine rağmen bağış yapan birey oranının oldukça düşük olduğu belirlendi. Bu bulgular doğrultusunda, ülkemizde organ bağışı farkındalık programları ile toplumun organ bağışı konusunda sağlık profesyonelleri, dini liderler ve kitle iletişim araçları ile bilgilendirilmesi önerilmektedir. Anah tar Ke li me ler: Aile sağlığı merkezi; organ bağışı; organ bağışı tutum ölçeği; toplum; tutum ABS TRACT Objective:This study aimed to determine attitude of individuals admitted a family center about organ donation. Material and Methods: A cross-sectional descriptive design was conducted. Study participants consisted of 582 individuals. Data was collected by the researchers using the Descriptive Characteristics Information Form and Organ Donation Attitude Scale. Results: We identified that 58.2% of the individuals wanted to donate their organs but only 3.3% had organ donation cards, 37.8% of individuals did not want to donate their organs because of religious reasons, 74.1% had knowledge about organ donation and 67% suggested that there is a need to raise social awareness about the importance of organ donation to increase the rate of organ donation. It was determined that "Humanity and Moral Conviction" scale score of sample was 95.52±20.80, Total Negative Attitude Scale score was 58.19±21.35 and people showed positive attitude towards organ donation. It was also found that individuals who had knowledge about organ donation, found organ donation acceptable in religious aspects, wanted to donate their organs and had a relative with organ failure had more higher positive attitude score and lower negative attitude score, the differe...

Purpose: Renal transplantation is the most effective treatment method for chronic renal failure and helps improve the quality of life of patients and caregivers.In the present study, the purpose was to determine the knowledge level of the primary caregivers of patients receiving hemodialysis treatment about organ transplantation and their attitudes toward organ donation. Method: The study was conducted in a descriptive fashion with the relatives of 71 patients who were receiving treatment in the hemodialysis unit for the end-stage renal failure of a state hospital between 01.08.2022 and 15.10.2022. The data of the study were collected face to face with a questionnaire form, Organ Donation Attitude Scale, and Organ Tissue Donation and Transplantation Information Scale. The SPSS 24 package program was used in the analysis of the data. Descriptive statistics, numbers, percentages, and mean values were used in the analysis of the data. The One-Sample Kolmogorov-Smirnov Test was used to evaluate the homogeneity of the data. The Studentt test, the One-Way Analysis of Variance, the Kruskal–Wallis Test, and the Tukey Post-Hoc Test were used for the analysis between the groups. Statistical significance was taken as p < .05. Results: The benevolence and moral values/beliefs sub-dimension score average of the participants was found to be 98.44 ± 14.61, the fear of medical neglect was 32.10 ± 10.09, and the mean bodily injury sub-dimension score was 30.45 ± 11.28. It was also found that the mean score of the Organ-Tissue Donation and Transplant Information Scale was 11.41 ± 2.59. A statistically significant and negative relationship was detected between the participants’ medical neglect and bodily injury attitudes and the Organ-Tissue Donation and Transplant Information Scale score averages ( p < .05). Conclusion and Suggestions: As a result, it was found that the positive attitudes of the caregivers of individuals receiving hemodialysis treatment about organ donation were at a good level, and as the level of organ transplantation knowledge increased, negative attitudes towards organ donation decreased. In this context, it can be suggested that healthcare professionals provide training on organ transplantation and donation to the relatives of patients receiving hemodialysis treatment.
