Abstract

Incontinence and prolapse are an important health problems in our society. Both health professionals and the society do not have sufficient knowledge about this issues. Our aim in the study is to examine the level of incontinence and prolapse knowledge of intermediate health personnel. 198 university students were included in the study. Physical and demographic characteristics were recorded. Incontinence and prolapse knowledge level was evaluated with the Prolapse and Incontinence Knowledge Questionnaire (PIKQ). While the mean age of the participants was 20.25±1.31 years, 12.1% were male and 87.9% were female. While 55.1% had not heard of incontinence before, 47% had not heard of prolapse before. The mean PIKQ-incontinence knowledge test score was 7.55, the PIKQ prolapse knowledge test score was 5.28, and the total score was 12.83. The PIKQ scores of the students were calculated as 66.6% out of 100, which is the incontinence subscale score of 8. The equivalent of 6 points out of 100, which is the prolapse subscale score, was calculated as 50%. The PIKQ scores of the participants were found to be significantly higher in women, those who had heard of urinary incontinence before and those who had heard of pelvic organ prolapse (p<0.05). In this study, measuring the incontinence and pelvic prolapse knowledge levels of health school students, it was determined that the students' knowledge levels on this subject were low.

Özet

İdrar kaçırma ve sarkma toplumumuzda önemli bir sağlık sorunudur. Hem sağlık çalışanları hem de toplum bu konuda yeterli bilgiye sahip değildir. Çalışmadaki amacımız ara sağlık personelinin inkontinans ve prolapsus bilgi düzeylerini incelemektir. Çalışmaya 198 üniversite öğrencisi dahil edildi. Fiziksel ve demografik özellikleri kaydedildi. İnkontinans ve prolapsus bilgi düzeyi Prolapsus ve İnkontinans Bilgi Anketi (PIKQ) ile değerlendirildi. Katılımcıların yaş ortalaması 20.25±1.31 yıl iken, %12.1’i erkek %87.9’u kadın idi. %55.1’i daha önce inkontinansı duymamış iken, %47’si ise daha önce prolapsı duymamış idi. PIKQ-inkontinans bilgi testi puanı ortalaması 7.55, PIKQ prolapsus bilgi testi puanı 5.28, toplam puan 12.83 olarak hesaplandı. Öğrencilerin PIKQ puanları idrar kaçırma alt ölçeği puanı olan 8 olan 100 üzerinden %66,6 olarak hesaplandı. Sarkma alt ölçeği puanı olan 100 üzerinden 6 puanın karşılığı %50 olarak hesaplandı. Katılımcıların PIKQ puanları kadınlarda, idrar kaçırmayı daha önce duyanlarda ve pelvik organ prolapsusu duyanlarda anlamlı olarak yüksek bulundu (p<0,05). Sağlık yüksekokulu öğrencilerinin inkontinans ve pelvik prolapsus bilgi düzeylerinin ölçüldüğü bu çalışmada öğrencilerin bu konudaki bilgi düzeylerinin düşük olduğu belirlendi.
