Onkoloji hastalarının tamamlayıcı ve alternatif tedavi yöntemlerini kullanma durumları

Year 2020, Volume: 13 Issue: 1, 69 - 80, 21.01.2020
https://doi.org/10.31362/patd.640488

Abstract

Amaç: Çalışma, kanser hastalarının tamamlayıcı ve alternatif
tedavi yöntemleri (TAT) kullanma durumlarının saptanması ve olası risklere ışık
tutulması amacıyla gerçekleştirilmiştir.



 



Gereç-Yöntem: Araştırmaya katılmayı kabul eden 260 gönüllü hastaya 20
soruluk bir anket, yüz yüze görüşme yoluyla uygulandı. Verilerin
değerlendirilmesinde tanımlayıcı istatistikler ve ki-kare (χ2) testi
kullanıldı.



 



Bulgular: Şehir merkezlerinde yaşayan hastalarda TAT kullanımının kırsal
bölgelerde yaşayanlara göre önemli ölçüde fazla olduğu (p=0,01) saptandı. Araştırmada hastaların %31,5’inin medikal tedavi
sürecinde TAT yöntemlerine başvurduğu belirlendi. Bu hastaların %95,1’inin
bitkisel ürünler, %3,7’sinin biyorezonans ve %1,2’sinin homeopati yöntemlerini
kullandığı saptandı. Araştırmada TAT yöntemi kullanan katılımcıların %14,8’inin
iki ayrı TAT yöntemini birden kullandığı tespit edildi. TAT yöntemlerinden
bitkisel ürünleri tercih eden hastaların toplam 17 farklı bitki kullandığı
saptandı. Araştırmada çörek otunun
(Nigella sativa L.) hastalarca en
fazla tercih edilen bitkisel ürün olduğu belirlendi. Prostat kanserli
hastaların diğer hastalara göre TAT yöntemlerine daha fazla başvurduğu saptandı
(p<0,05). Katılımcıların tanı
konulması üzerinden zaman geçtikçe TAT yöntemlerini kullanımlarının anlamlı
derecede arttığı saptandı (p<0,01).
Katılımcılar içerisinde kanser haricindeki komorbiditeler için ilaç
kullananların oranının %36,9 olduğu belirlendi. Bu hastalarda ilginç olarak
kanser dışında başka bir rahatsızlığı bulunmayanlara göre TAT kullanımının
anlamlı derecede daha yüksek olduğu saptandı (p<0,01).



 



Sonuç: Çalışmada, hastaların çeşitli TAT yöntemlerini çok sık ve
bilinçsizce kullandığı belirlendi. Hastaların, bu yöntemlerin sağlıklarına olan
potansiyel zararları hakkında daha ayrıntılı olarak bilgilendirilmeleri
gerekmektedir.
