Organ Bağışı Hakkında Bireylerin Bilgi,Tutum ve Davranışları

AMAÇ: Organ bağışı bekleyen hastaların sayısı her geçen gün artmaktadır. Ancak organ-doku bağışı sayısı, nakil bekleyen hasta sayısına oranla çok düşük kalmaktadır. Ülkemizde organ-doku bağışı konusunda insanlarımız yeterli düzeyde bilgi sahibi olmadıklarından, özellikle kalp, karaciğer ve böbrek gibi hayati öneme sahip organların naklini bekleyen hastalar için gerekli organlar zamanında bulunamamakta ve bu hastalar hayatlarını kaybetmektedirler. Bu tanımlayıcı çalışma bireylerin organ bağışına ilişkin bilgi tutum ve davranışlarını belirlemek amacıyla yapılmıştır. YÖNTEM: Bu tanımlayıcı çalışma bireylerin organ bağışına ilişkin bilgi tutum ve davranışlarını belirlemek amacıyla Nisan-Haziran 2011 tarihlerinde yapılmıştır. Bu çalışma Erzurum'da basit rastgele örneklemiyle seçilen 675 kişi seçilmiştir. Anket formu ile toplanan veriler yüzde ve ki-kare testleri ile analiz edilmiştir. BULGULAR: Bireylerin %95.7'si organ bağışında bulunmamış, %21.2'si bağış yapmayı düşünüyor, %44.6'sı ise karasızdır. Organ bağışı yapmayı anlamlı bir düzeyde daha genç (30 yaş ve altı) insanların (25.2%) düşündükleri tespit edilmiştir (p

[The Knowledge, Attitude and Behaviour of Individuals Regarding Organ

AIM: The number of patients awaiting organ donations is increasing every day. However, the number of organ-tissue donations is significantly lower than the number of patients waiting for organ donations. The necessary organs cannot be provided to patients awaiting donors on time and result in them losing their lives because the people in our country do not have sufficient knowledge regarding organ donations. This descriptive study was conducted in order to determine the knowledge, attitude and behaviour of individuals regarding donations. METHODS: This descriptive study was conducted between April - June 2011 in order to determine the knowledge, attitude and behaviour of individuals regarding donations. This study was conducted with the participation of 675 individuals in Erzurum chosen using a simple random sampling method. Data, collected using a questionnaire, was analysed using percentages and the chi-square test. RESULTS: 95.7% of individuals had not donated their organs, 21.2% of individuals were thinking of donating their organs, and 44.6% of individuals were indecisive. The attitude young people (aged 30 and below) (25.2%) had towards donating was significantly different (p<0.001). The rate of possible donation increased with the increase in the level of education (p<0.001). Most individuals that women (23.7%), that are employed (21.4%), that believe donating is important (22.5%), that have close relatives awaiting transplants (29.2%), that believe they have knowledge regarding donations (34.5%), that have witnessed people donating (35.2%), that would like to be informed about donations (13.1%) are thinking of donating; there was a statistically significant relationship between groups (p< 0.05). CONCLUSION :The majority of individuals stated that they had some knowledge about organ donating, they were not donors, and they were indecisive about donating their organ.
