Abstract

Aim: This study was conducted to determine the pain fear levels of patients hospitalized in internal medicine and surgery clinics. Methods: The sample of this descriptive and cross-sectional study consisted of 302 patients who received inpatient treatment in the internal and surgical clinics of a public hospital between August and October 2018. The data were collected with “Patient Identification Form” and “Fear of Pain Questionnaire-III”. Mean standard deviation, number-percentage, Pearson correlation analysis, independent samples test, one-way ANOVA were used in statistical analysis. Results: The mean age of the patients was 46.12±1.05 years. 58.3% of them were women. Their average scores of Fear of Pain Questionnaire-III were 76.72 ± 20.61. The average scores of the questionnaire were found as 76.66±20.10 in internal clinics and 76.82±21.61 in surgical clinics. It was no found a significant difference (p>0.05) between their average scores of Fear of Pain Questionnaire-III and subscale of the questionnaire according to the clinics. It was stated that a significant negative correlation (r=-0.124; p<0.05) was between age and pain fear. And, it was found that level of pain fear in women was higher than level of pain fear in men (p<0.05). Conclusion: According to the findings obtained from this study; there was no significant difference between total scores of fear of pain of inpatient treatment in internal medicine and surgical clinics. It is recommended that this study be repeated in different sample groups.

Özet

Amaç: Bu çalışma, dahiliye ve cerrahi kliniklerinde yatan hastaların ağrı korku düzeylerinin belirlenmesi amacıyla yapıldı. Gereç ve Yöntem: Tanımlayıcı ve kesitsel tipteki araştırmanın örneklemini, Ağustos-Ekim 2018 tarihleri arasında bir devlet hastanesinin dahiliye ve cerrahi kliniklerinde yatarak tedavi alan 302 hasta oluşturdu. Veriler, “Hasta Tanıtım Formu” ve “Ağrı Korku Ölçeği-III” ile toplandı. Verilerin değerlendirilmesinde, ortalama, standart sapma, sayı-yüzde dağılımları, pearson korelasyon testi, cronbach alpha, independent samples test (T-testi), one-way ANOVA, post hoc multiple comparisons testleri kullanıldı. Bulgular: Araştırmaya katılan hastaların yaş ortalaması 46.12±1.05, %58.3’ü kadın ve Ağrı Korku Ölçeği-III toplam puan ortalaması ise 76.72±20.61’dir. Ölçek toplam puan ortalaması dâhiliye kliniklerinde yatan hastalarda 76.66±20.10; cerrahi kliniklerinde yatan hastalarda ise 76.82±21.61 olarak belirlendi. Hastaların tedavi aldıkları kliniğe göre ağrı korkusu ölçeği-III toplam ve alt boyut puan ortalamaları arasında anlamlı farklılık bulunmadı (p>0.05). Hastaların yaşı ile şiddetli ağrı korkusu arasında negatif yönde anlamlı korelasyon bulundu (r=-0.124; p<0.05). Ayrıca, kadın hastaların ağrı korku düzeyleri erkek hastalardan daha yüksek saptandı (p<0.05). Sonuç: Çalışmamızdan elde edilen bulgular doğrultusunda; ağrı değerlendirilmesine en çok ihtiyaç duyulan dâhiliye ve cerrahi kliniklerindeki hastaların ağrı korkusu toplam puanları arasında anlamlı bir fark bulunmadı. Bu araştırmanın, farklı örneklem gruplarında tekrarlanması önerilmektedir.
