Özet
Amaç: Farklı eğitim düzeyine sahip annelerin çocuklarını kanserden korumaya yönelik yaptıkları uygulamaları belirlemektir.Yöntem: Araştırma, iki Aile Sağlığı Merkezinde Haziran 2013-Nisan 2019 tarihleri arasında tanımlayıcı olarak yapıldı. Araştırma evrenini aile sağlığı merkezlerine kayıtlı 0-6 yaş grubu çocuğu olan 5640 anne oluşturmaktadır. Çalışma kriterlerine uyan 359 anne çalışma kapsamına alındı. Verilerin toplanmasında, anket formu kullanıldı. Anket formuyla ebeveynlerin tanıtıcı bilgileri ve annelerin çocuklarını kanserden korumaya yönelik yaptıkları uygulamalar 5 gruba (1. grup beslenme, 2. grup sigara ve zararlı kimyasallar, 3. grup radyasyon, 4. grup tıbbi tetkikler ve bağışıklama, 5. grup güneş ışınları) sınıflandırılarak incelendi.Bulgular: Annelerin eğitim durumlarıyla ek gıdalara başlarken dikkat edilen noktalar, meyve yedirme sıklığı, meyveyi yedirme şekli, hazır gıdaların ve işlenmiş etlerin yedirilme sıklığı, sigaraya yönelik uygulamalar ve çocuğun banyosunda kullanılan sabun ve şampuanlarda dikkat edilen noktalar, izlenen televizyon ve bilgisayarla oynama süresi, çocuğunu hastalandığında doktora götürme, doktorun önerdiği tüm tetkikleri yaptırma, çocuğun güneşlenmesi ile ilgili ve güneş kremi kullanırken dikkat edilen noktalar, çocuğun vücudunda bulunan benleri gözlemleme, benlerin kansere neden olduğunu düşünme durumları arasında istatistiksel olarak anlamlı fark vardır (p<0.05).Sonuç: Annelerin çocuklarını kanserden korumak amacıyla beslenme, sigara ve zararlı kimyasallar, radyasyon, tıbbi tetkikler ve bağışıklama, güneş ışınları gibi konularda önlemler almaya çalıştıkları görülse de, çocukları kanserden korumaya yönelik bazı uygulamalarda yetersiz oldukları görülmektedir.
