Abstract

Purpose: This study was conducted to determine the attitudes of women toward early diagnosis of cervical cancer, and the relationship between these attitudes, and health responsibility and some factors. Materials and Methods: This study was performed with 662 women aged 21 to 65. The Descriptive Characteristics Form, Attitude Scale for Early Diagnosis of Cervical Cancer and Healthy Lifestyle Behaviors Scale II-Health Responsibility Subscale were used for data collection.Results: In the present study, it was detected that perceived susceptibility of women were at moderate levels while their perceived severity, barriers and benefits were at low levels. A negative correlation was detected between Health Responsibility and Perceived Susceptibility Among the significant variables that impact attitudes toward early diagnosis of cervical cancer are women’s individual and some obstetric characteristics, their health responsibility. Conclusion: The participating women’s perceived susceptibility of attitudes toward early diagnosis of cervical women was at a moderate level while their perceived severity, barriers and benefits were at a low level. Age, educational attainment, income level, presenting to the clinic for regular gynecological examinations and history of gynecological cancer in the family were some factors that had an impact on the health responsibility and attitudes of the participating women toward early diagnosis of cervical cancer. In the light of these findings, evidence-based, individualized nursing services such as physical and psychosocial care, training and consultancy can be planned to improve women’s attitudes toward early diagnosis of cervical cancer.

Özet

teşhisine yönelik tutumlarını belirlemek ve rahim ağzı kanserinin erken teşhisine yönelik tutumların sağlık sorumluluğu arasındaki ilişki ve bazı faktörlerle ilişkisini saptamak amacıyla yapılmıştır.Gereç ve Yöntem: Araştırma, yaşları 21 ile 65 arasında değişen 662 kadın ile yapıldı. Verilerin toplanmasında Tanımlayıcı Özellikler Formu, Servikal Kanser Erken Tanısı için Tutum Ölçeği ve Sağlıklı Yaşam Biçimi Davranışları Ölçeği II-Sağlık Sorumluluğu Aboneliği kullanılmıştır.Bulgular: Bu çalışmada kadınların algılanan duyarlılıklarının orta düzeyde, algılanan şiddeti, engelleri ve yararları düşük düzeyde olduğu tespit edildi. Sağlık sorumluluğu ve algılanan duyarlılık arasında negatif korelasyon belirlendi. Bireysel özellikler ve kadınların bazı obstetrik özellikleri ve sağlık sorumluluğu, rahim ağzı kanserinin erken teşhisine yönelik tutumları etkileyen önemli değişkenlerdiSonuç: Kadınların rahim kanserinin erken tanısına yönelik algılanan duyarlılıklarının orta düzeyde, algılanan şiddeti, engelleri ve yararları düşük düzeyde olduğu belirlenmiştir. Yaş, eğitim durumu, gelir düzeyinin, düzenli jinekolojik muayene için kliniğe gitmesinin ve ailede jinekolojik kanser öyküsünün, kadınların sağlık sorumluluğunu ve rahim ağzı kanserinin erken teşhisine yönelik tutumlarını etkileyen bazı faktörler olduğu tespit edildi. Bu bulgular ışığında, kadınların rahim ağzı kanserinin erken teşhisine yönelik tutumlarını iyileştirmek için fiziksel ve psikososyal bakım, eğitim ve danışmanlık gibi kanıta dayalı, bireyselleştirilmiş hemşirelik hizmetleri planlanabilir.
