Abstract

Objectives: Assessment of women’s attitudes towards the glucose to- lerance test in the context of gestational diabetes risk factors. Study Design: This study was conducted in 2017. The questionnai- res about gestational diabetes risk factors, glucose tolerance test, at- titudes towards the test, and information sources were administered to 513 women who were on any week of their pregnancy. Results: Of the pregnant women 64.3% think that the glucose tole- ranse test is harmful for fetus. At least one risk factor for gestational diabetes was positive in 58.7% of these women. Positive attitudes towards the test were higher in women with previous gestational di- abetes mellitus and glucose intolerance before pregnancy. In body mass index and age groups, attitude towards the test was similar. Mass communication tools were the main source of these negative thoughts against the test. Conclusion: There is a common negative attitude towards the gluco- se tolerance test in pregnant women. This attitude poses a potential hazard that may lead to an increase in the number of undiagnosed cases and the frequency of complications.

Özet

Amaç: Gestasyonel diyabet risk faktörleri bağlamında, kadınların glukoz tolerans testine yönelik tutumlarının değerlendirilmesi. Çalışma Planı: Çalışma 2017 yılında gerçekleştirilmiştir. Gebeliği- nin herhangi bir haftasında olan 513 kadına gestasyonel diyabet risk faktörleri, glukoz tolerans testi, teste karşı düşünce ve bilgi kaynak- ları hakkında anket uygulandı. Bulgular: Gebelerin %64.3’ü glukoz tolerans testini zararlı gör- mektedir. Bu kadınların %58.7’sinde gestasyonel diyabet için en az bir risk faktörü pozitiftir. Daha önce gestasyonel diyabet öyküsü olan ve gebelik öncesinde glukoz intoleransı olan kadınlarda teste karşı pozitif tutum sıklığı daha yüksektir. Beden kütle indeksi ve yaş gruplarında teste karşı tutum benzerdir. Kitle iletişim araçları teste karşı olumsuz düşüncelerin ana kaynağıdır. Sonuç: Gebe kadınlarda glukoz tolerans testine karşı yaygın bir ne- gatif tutum durumu mevcuttur. Bu tutum tanı almamış vaka sayısında ve komplikasyon sıklığında artışa neden olabilecek potansiyel bir tehlike oluşturmaktadır.
