Abstract

Objective: The study was conducted to determine the level of knowledge and awareness of risk factors and warning signs of heart attack in a selected sample of the Turkish population. Methods: Population-based cross-sectional study was carried out with people over age 40 years in Aydın. The study group was determined by multi-stage sampling method (simple random and cluster sampling methods). Questionnaire was administered during face-to-face interviews in the participants’ homes. Chi-square and t-test were used for analytical evaluation. Risk assessments were performed utilizing logistic regression analysis. Results: The percentage of participants who did not know what a heart attack is and its warning signs were 42.3% and 23.2%, respectively. Overall, 11.8% were unaware of risk factors. Loss of consciousness/fainting, chest pain, radiation of pain were reported as three major warning signs. Among risk factors, stress was ranked as the most common, followed by smoking. It was determined that age, place of residence, education, occupation, self-reported risk factors had effect on the knowledge for major warning signs (p

Özet

Amaç: Türkiye’den seçilmiş bir örneklemde kalp krizi risk faktörleri ve alarm belirtileri bilgi ve farkındalıklarını belirlemektir.Yöntemler: Toplum temelli ve kesitsel tipteki bu çalışma, Aydın merkezde yaşayan 40 yaş üstü 997 katılımcı ile gerçekleştirildi. Gruplar çok aşamalı örnekleme yöntemiyle (basit rastgele-küme örnekleme yöntemleri) belirlendi. Soru formu, katılımcıların evlerinde yüz yüze görüşme tekniği ile dolduruldu. Tanımlayıcı istatistiklerde yüzde, ortalama±standart sapma değerleri, analitik değerlendirmede ki-kare, t-testi, risk değerlendirmede lojistik regresyon analizi kullanılmıştır.Bulgular: Katılımcıların %42.3’ü kalp krizinin ne olduğunu, %23.2’si alarm belirtilerinin herhangi birini bilmiyordu, %11.8’i ise risk faktörlerinden herhangi birinin farkında değildi. Katılımcılar kalp krizi alarm belirtisi olarak ilk üç sırada, bilinç kaybı/baygınlık, göğüs ağrısı ve ağrının yayılmasını belirttiler. Risk faktörü olarak ilk sırada stres, ikinci sırada sigara yer aldı. Kalp krizi majör alarm belirtilerini yaş, yerleşim yeri, eğitim durumu, meslek ve kişisel risk faktörü bulunma durumlarının etkilediği tespit edilmiştir (p
