Aile Hekimleri, Pediatristler ve Eczacıların Probiyotik Kullanımları Hakkında Bilgi, Tutum ve Davranışları
Giriş ve Amaç: Günümüzde hem sağlık çalışanları hem de tüketiciler tarafından probiyotik gıdaların potansiyel sağlık yararları konusunda artan ilgi vardır. Sağlığın korunması ve geliştirilmesinde önemli bir rol oynayan probiyotikler hakkında sağlık çalışanlarının yeterli bilgi sahibi olması gereklidir. Bu çalışma aile hekimleri, pediatristler ve eczacıların probiyotik ürünler konusundaki bilgi ve tutumlarının belirlenmesi amacıyla planlanmıştır.Materyal ve Metod: Sakarya’da görev yapan aile hekimi, eczacı ve pediatristlerden, demografik veriler ve probiyotik içerik, kullanım ve davranışlarını belirlemeye yönelik bilgiler 20 sorudan oluşan anket formu ile yüz yüze görüşme yöntemi ve online olarak doldurulmuştur. Çalışmaya gönüllü 135 aile hekimi, 74 pediatrist ve 97 eczacı katılmıştır. Verilerin değerlendirilmesinde, SPSS 24.0 paket programı kullanılmıştır.Bulgular: Aile hekimleri, probiyotiklerle ilgili genel bilgi düzeyleri hakkındaki soruya %67.4’ü orta, %16.3’ü kötü/çok kötü cevabını vermiştir. Pediatristlerin %59.5’i orta, %36.5’i iyi olarak değerlendirmişlerdir. Eczacıların ise %70,1’i probiyotiklerin içindeki mikroorganizmaları bildiğini belirtmişlerdir. Tartışma ve Sonuç: Hekimlerde, probiyotiklerle ilgili güven sorunu olduğu gözlemlenmektedir. Bunun olası nedenleri, probiyotiklerle ilgili kanıt düzeylerinin tartışmalı olması ve güvenilir organizasyonların oluşturduğu hangi endikasyonlarda hangi mikroorganizmaların kullanılacağına dair kılavuzların olmaması olabilir. Sonuç olarak probiyotiklerin sağlık üzerine olumlu etkilerini gösteren çalışmaların her geçen gün artmasına paralel olarak probiyotiklerin akılcı kullanımı üzerine de bilgilendirme gerekliliği olduğu görülmüştür. Hekimler ve eczacıların bu bilgileri aktarmada ve uygulamada temel etken olduğu akılda tutularak çeşitli eğitimler aracılığı ile mecvut bilgilerin desteklenmesi gerektiği düşünülmektedir.

Possible reasons for this may be that the level of evidence for probiotics is controversial and there are noguidelines on which microorganisms may be used in which indications of reliable organizations. As a result, in parallel with the ever-increasing progress of studiesshowing positive effects of probiotics on health, informing about the rational use of probiotics has been found necessary.
