HEMŞİRELİK BÖLÜMÜ ÖĞRENCİLERİNDE BEL/BOY ORANI VE TİP 2 DİYABET RİSKİ İLİŞKİSİNİN DEĞERLENDİRİLMESİ

Öz

Bu araştırmada hemşirelik bölümü öğrencilerinin tip 2 diyabet riski ile bel/boy oranı ve tip 2 diyabet riski ilişkisinin değerlendirilmesi amaçlanmıştır. Vücut ağırlığı, boy uzunluğu, bel ve kalça çevresi ölçümleri tekniğine uygun olarak yapılmış ve Finlandiya tip 2 diyabet riski anketi uygulanmıştır. Öğrencilerin %67.1’inin 10 yıllık tip 2 diyabet riskinin %1, %28.5’inin 10 yıllık diyabet riskinin %4, %2.2’sinin 10 yıllık tip 2 diyabet riskinin %16 ve %2.2’sinin 10 yıllık tip 2 diyabet riskinin %33 olduğu saptanmıştır. Tip 2 diyabet riski ile bel/boy oranı ve beden kütle indeksi arasındaki ilişki orta düzeyde olup bel/boy oranı, tip 2 diyabet riski ile korelasyon katsayısı en yüksek olan ölçümdür. Gençlerde tip 2 diyabet riskinin girişimsel olmayan yöntemlerle belirlenebilmesi riskin azaltılmasında etkili olabilir.
