Abstract

Objective: The study was aimed to identify the awareness of the chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and asthma among university students and to compare awareness of COPD and asthma at the faculty of health science and education. Methods: The universe of this cross-sectional observational study was students at Faculty of Health Science and Education in Hatay Mustafa Kemal University. Students divided into two groups (Group I: 317 Faculty of Health Science students, and Group II: 308 Faculty of Education students). TC Ministry of Health Chronic Airway Diseases Prevention Control Program Asthma-COPD Awareness Questionnaire Form was applied to volunteer face to face or via the internet. Results: Correct answers about COPD awareness were approximately above 70% except for questions: “Is COPD a treatable disease?” and “What test is required for the diagnosis of COPD?”. Correct answers about asthma awareness were approximately above 60% except for questions “Are asthma medications addictive?” and “Is asthma a disease that can be cured completely?”. The questions about awareness of COPD and asthma were answered more correctly in Group I more than in Group II except for questions: “In which age group is COPD most common” and “Are asthma medications addictive?” (p

Özet

Amaç: Çalışmada üniversite öğrencilerinde kronik obstrüktif akciğer hastalığı (KOAH) ve astım farkındalığını belirlemek ve sağlık bilimleri ve eğitim fakültesinde okuyan öğrencilerin KOAH ve astım farkındalığını karşılaştırmak amaçlanmıştır. Yöntem: Bu enine kesitsel gözlemsel çalışmanın evreni Hatay Mustafa Kemal Üniversitesi Sağlık Bilimleri ve Eğitim Fakülteleri öğrencileriydi. Öğrenciler iki gruba ayrıldı (Grup I: 317 Sağlık Bilimleri Fakültesi öğrencisi ve Grup II: 308 Eğitim Fakültesi öğrencisi). T.C. Sağlık Bakanlığı Kronik Havayolu Hastalıkları (KHH) Önleme Kontrol Programı Astım-KOAH Farkındalık Anketi Formu yüz yüze ve internet aracılığı ile uygulandı. Bulgular: KOAH farkındalığına yönelik doğru cevaplar “KOAH tedavi edilebilir bir hastalık mıdır?” ve “KOAH tanısı için hangi test gereklidir?” soruları dışında yaklaşık %70’in üzerindeydi. Astım farkındalığı ile ilgili doğru cevaplar “Astım ilaçları bağımlılık yapar mı?” ve “Astım tamamen tedavi edilebilen bir hastalık mıdır?” soruları dışında yaklaşık %60’ın üzerindeydi. KOAH ve astım farkındalığı ile ilgili sorulara “KOAH en sık hangi yaş grubunda görülür” ve “Astım ilaçları bağımlılık yapar mı?” soruları dışında Grup I’de Grup II’ye göre daha fazla doğru yanıt verildi (p
