Abstract

Objectives: In this study, the knowledge levels of the physicians working in Erzurum on "Basic Life Support" (BLS) were determined and the factors to be effective on the knowledge level on BLS were evaluated. Materials and Methods: One hundred and fifty general practitioners working in the primary health care centers and 165 residents working in Atatürk University Teaching Hospital were included in the study. All the participants answered and filled the questionnaire forms consisting of demographic data and 30 multiple-choice questions related to BLS and evaluating the knowledge levels of the subjects, the face to face interview method was used. For statistical analysis, Chi-square test was used. Results: Out of 30 questions; while the mean number of the correct answers of the general practitioners work­ing in primary health care centers was 15.5±3.74, it was 16.53+3.57 in the research assistant group working in the university hospital; the difference was statistically significant (p=0.01). It was determined that the important factors influencing the success of the participants on answering the questions were the working place (univer­sity or primary health care centers), age, the presence of BLS education programs during faculty years, and the participation to BLS education programs after graduation from the faculty. Conclusion: It was concluded that BLS education programs for physicians must be continued, improved and updated, and maintained by improving the knowledge and skills of the health workers via in-service training pro­grams.

Özet

Giriş: Tıp doktorlarının temel yaşam desteği bilgi düzeylerinin ölçülmesi bu konuda yapılacak eğitim çalışmalarının planlanmasında yol gösterici olacaktır. Bu çalışmada, Erzurum ilinde görevli doktorların "Temel Yaşam Desteği" (TYD) konusundaki bilgi düzeyleri ve bunu etkileyen faktörler değerlendirildi. Gereç ve Yöntem: Erzurum ilinde birinci basamak sağlık kuruluşlarında görevli 150 pratisyen hekim ile Atatürk Üniversitesi Tıp Fakültesi Hastanelerinde görevli 165 asistan hekime ait demografik veriler ve bilgi düzeylerini ölçe­bilecek TYD ile ilgili 30 adet çoktan seçmeli soruyu yüz yüze görüşme yöntemi ile yanıtlamaları sağlandı. Anket formlarından elde edilen verilerin istatistiksel hesaplamalarında Ki-Kare analiz testi kullanıldı. Bulgular: Otuz soruda, birinci basamak sağlık kuruluşlarında çalışan katılımcıların ortalama doğru cevap sayısı 15.52+3.74 iken, üniversite hastanesinde görev yapan araştırma görevlisi katılımcıların ortalama doğru cevap sayısı 16.53±3.57 olarak saptandı (p=0.01). Başarı durumunu etkileyen en önemli faktörlerin, katılımcıların görev yaptıkları yerler (birinci basamak sağlık kuruluşu ya da üniversite hastanesinde çalışıyor olmalarına göre), yaşı, mezun oldukları tıp fakültesinde TYD ile ilgili katılımlarının olması ve mezuniyet sonrası TYD ile ilgili katılımlarının olması olduğu belirlendi. Sonuç: Tıp doktorlarına yönelik TYD eğitim programları geliştirilmeli, güncellenmeli ve hizmet içi eğitimlerle çalışanların bilgi ve becerileri artırılarak, devamlılığı sağlanmalıdır.
