Abstract

Amaç: Bu çalışma, Türkiye’de bir üniversite hastanesinde kadın doğum polikliniklerine başvuran gebe kadınların gebelikte ilaç kullanımlarına ilişkin bilgi, tutum ve davranışlarını değerlendirmeyi amaçlamıştır.
Gereç ve Yöntem: Çalışma kesitsel bir anket çalışmasıdır. 13 Mart-14 Nisan 2023 tarihleri arasında bir üniversite hastanesi kadın doğum polikliniklerinde 18 yaş üstü gebe kadınlarda yüz yüze olacak şekilde yürütülmüştür.
Sonuç ve Tartışma: Ankete katılan gebe kadınların %64.4’ü 22-29 yaşları arasındaydı ve %42.3’ü üniversite mezunuydu. Gebelerin kadınların çoğunluğu (%83.4) vitamin-mineral takviyesi almaktaydı. Gebe kadınların bilgi, tutum ve davranış puanlarının ortalama±standart sapması sırasıyla 3.38±0.91, 12.8±1.72 ve 4.73±0.578’di. Gebe kadınların genel olarak bilgi, tutum ve davranışları iyi bulunmuştu ancak yine de bazı bilgi eksiklikleri bulunmaktaydı. Gebe kadınların gebelik sırasında güvenli ilaç kullanımı ve kaçınılması gereken ilaçlar konusunda eğitilmesine ihtiyaç bulunmaktadır.

Most of the pregnant women (83.4%) were taking vitamin-mineral supplements. The mean±standard deviation of the knowledge, attitude and behavior scores of the pregnant women were 3.38±0.91, 12.8±1.72 and 4.73±0.578, respectively.
