Abstract

Amaç: Bu çalışma, tıp öğrencilerinin klinik eğitim deneyimlerine odaklanarak uyuz hastalığına yönelik tutumlarını ve endişelerini değerlendirmeyi amaçlamaktadır.
Gereç ve Yöntemler: Kesitsel nitelikteki bu çalışma, 2 Ocak 2023 - 28 Şubat 2023 tarihleri arasında çeşitli üniversitelerin tıp fakültelerinde eğitim gören tıp öğrencileri ile yürütülmüştür. Veriler, demografik bilgileri, uyuz hastalığına yönelik tutumları, endişeleri ve bilgileri kapsayan 29 maddelik bir anket yolu ile toplanmıştır.
Bulgular: Tıp öğrencileri, uyuz hastalığına yönelik orta düzeyde bir tutum seviyesi sergilemiş (ortanca puan: 17 üzerinden 10,00) ve hasta yaklaşımlarında endişelerini ifade etmiştir (ortanca puan: 70 üzerinden 33,00). Daha genç yaş grubundaki öğrenciler daha yüksek endişe puanları göstermiştir. Tutum ve endişe puanları arasında negatif bir korelasyon bulunmuştur (p < 0.001).
Sonuç: Uyuz hastalığına yönelik endişeler, daha genç tıp öğrencileri arasında daha yüksekken, bilgi arttıkça azalmaktadır. Mezuniyet öncesi eğitimi sırasında hastalığın bulaşma yolları ve önleyici tedbirleri ele alan eğitim müdahaleleri önerilmektedir.

Abstract

Objective: This study aims to evaluate medical students' attitudes and concerns towards scabies by focusing on their clinical training experiences.
Material and Methods: This cross-sectional study was conducted with medical students studying at medical faculties of various universities between January 2, 2023, and February 28, 2023. Data were collected through a 29-item survey covering demographic information, attitudes, concerns, and knowledge about scabies.
Results: Medical students demonstrated a moderate level of knowledge about scabies (median score: 10.00 out of 17) and expressed concerns (median score: 33.00 out of 70) during the patient approach. Younger students displayed higher concern scores. There was a negative correlation between attitude and concern scores (p < 0.001).
Conclusion: Concerns about scabies transmission were higher among younger medical students, decreasing with increased knowledge. Educational interventions addressing transmission modes and preventive measures are recommended during pre-graduation training.
