Abstract

Introduction and Aims:



In Turkey, Colorectal Cancer (CRC) is the sixth
among cancer types observed in women and men and the third in deaths resulting
from cancer. In protection from CRC, knowing health beliefs about Fecal Occult
Blood Test (FOBT) may help change the perceptions of health such as barrier and
benefit and increase participation in screenings. This study was carried out in
order to identify the CRC risks of individuals aged over fifty and their
attitudes towards having fecal occult blood test.



Materials and Method:



This study was designed as a descriptive-cross-sectional
study.The sample included 590 individuals aged over 50. Data were collected the
question form and the Scale for Assessment of Benefits and Barriers of
Colorectal Cancer Screening-FOBT.



Findings:



The rate of having FOBT in the last five years was
found 3.1 times higher for 'doctor or any other health specialist advising
having test for CRC' (95% CI=1.863-5.209), 5.7 times higher for 'Being
diagnosed with colon polyp before' (95% CI=1.365-23.894).



Conclusion:



The results of this study showed that the CRC
screening behaviors of individuals aged over 50 in a rural area are quite
inadequate. One of the health beliefs, the total perception of benefit in
having FOBT was found to be above middle level and the total perception of
barrier to be below the middle level.

Abstract

Giriş ve Amaç:

Kolorektal
Kanser (KRK) Türkiye’de kadın ve erkeklerde görülen kanser türleri içinde
altıncı, kanserden kaynaklanan ölümler arasında üçüncü sıradadır. KRK’den
korunmada Dışkıda Gizli Kan Testi (DGKT) hakkındaki sağlık inançlarının bilinmesi
engel ve yarar gibi sağlık algılarının değişmesine yardım ederek taramalara
katılımı arttırılabilir. Bu çalışma, elli yaş üstü bireylerin KRK risklerinin
ve dışkıda gizli kan testi yaptırma konusundaki tutumlarının belirlenmesi
amacıyla yapılmıştır.

 Gereç ve Yöntem:

Bu çalışma, tanımlayıcı-kesitsel araştırma
türünde yapılmıştır. Örneklem 50 yaş üstü 590 bireyden oluşmuştur. Veriler, s
oru
formu ve Kolorektal Kanser Taraması Yarar ve Engelleri Değerlendirme-DGKT
ölçeği ile toplanmıştır.

Bulgular: 

Son beş yılda FOBT yaptırma oranı Doktor veya
herhangi bir diğer sağlık uzmanı CRC için test yaptırmasını önermesi
” 3,1 kat (95% CI=1.863-5.209), “Daha önce kolon polip teşhisi alma” 5.7 kat (95% CI=1.365-23.894) yüksek bulunmuştur.

Sonuç:





















Bu çalışmanın sonuçları
kırsal bir bölgede elli yaş üstü bireylerin KRK tarama davranışlarının oldukça
yetersiz olduğunu göstermiştir. Sağlık inançlarından DGKT yaptırmada toplam
yarar algısı orta düzeyin üzerinde, toplam engel algısı orta düzeyin altında
bulunmuştur.
