Abstract

Objective: The purpose of this study was to assess cases in early childhood age group (1-4 years of age) who were admitted to Ondokuz Mayis University Health Application and Research Center due to poisoning and to obtain guiding results in taking protective measures. Materials and Methods: 761 children between the ages of 1 to 4 who were admitted to Ondokuz Mayis University Health Application and Research Center between 01 August 2010 and 31 July 2015 with a diagnosis of poisoning were included in the study. The data obtained with this cross sectional study was analyzed by using SPSS statistic program. Results: 413 (54,3%) of the cases were male, while 348 (45,7%) were female. The highest number of cases were admitted in the months of July (11,8%) and May (11,6%), on Mondays (18,3%) and between the hours 16.00-23.59. Drugs were statistically significantly the most common reason (48,3%) for poisoning in children. Conclusion: In early childhood age group, trainings for parents or caregivers against poisoning that may happen in the house are quite important. In addition, labor force planning should be arranged by considering admission times in emergency services to make sure that patients are exposed to poison for a shorter period of time.

Özet

Amaç: Bu çalışma, Ondokuz Mayıs Üniversitesi Sağlık Uygulama ve Araştırma Merkezine zehirlenme nedeniyle getirilen erken çocukluk yaş grubundaki (1-4 yaş) olguların değerlendirilmesi ve elde edilen bulguların koruyucu önlemlerin alınmasında yol gösterici olması amacıyla yapılmıştır.Gereç ve Yöntem: 01 Ağustos 2010 - 31 Temmuz 2015 tarihleri arasındaki beş yıllık süre içerisinde zehirlenme nedeniyle Ondokuz Mayıs Üniversitesi Sağlık Uygulama ve Araştırma Merkezine getirilen 1-4 yaş aralığındaki 761 çocuk çalışmaya dahil edilmiştir. Kesitsel nitelikteki bu çalışmada elde edilen veriler SPSS istatistik programı kullanılarak değerlendirilmiştir. Bulgular: Olguların 413 (%54,3)'ü erkek, 348 (%45,7)'i kadındır. En fazla olgu; Temmuz (%11,8) ve Mayıs (%11,6) ayında, Pazartesi günleri (%18,3) ve saat 16.00-23.59 arasında başvurmuştur. Çocuklar istatistiksel olarak anlamlı bir şekilde en çok ilaç (%48,3) ile zehirlenmiştir.Sonuç: Erken çocukluk yaş grubunda ev içinde meydana gelebilecek zehirlenmelere karşı ebeveynlere ya da çocuğa bakım verenlere yönelik yapılacak eğitim çalışmaları oldukça önemlidir. Bunun yanı sıra hastaların zehire daha kısa süre maruz kalması açısından acil servislerde insan gücü planlaması başvuru zamanları gözetilerek düzenlenmelidir.
