Abstract

Amaç: Bu çalışmada, COVID-19 pandemi sürecinde tip 1 diyabetli çocuğu olan ebeveynlerin sürekli ve durumluk kaygısının aile işlevleri üzerine etkisinin incelenmesi amaçlanmıştır.
Yöntem ve Gereçler: Tanımlayıcı, kesitsel ve ilişkisel tipteki bu çalışma rastgele örnekleme yöntemi ile karantina döneminde yapılmıştır. Çalışma, Türkiye’nin batısındaki bir hastanenin pediatrik endokrinoloji polikliniğine kayıtlı 134 tip 1 diyabetli çocuğun ebeveynleri ile tamamlanmıştır.
Bulgular: Tip 1 diyabetli çocuğu olan ebeveynlerin aile işlevlerini sırasıyla en çok durumluk kaygı düzeyi ve sürekli kaygı düzeyi etkilediği saptanmıştır. Modelin genelinde aile işlevselliğini etkileyen faktörlerin %43’ünün ((F= 51.356, p<.001) durumluk ve sürekli kaygı düzeyi ile açıklandığı bulunmuştur.
Sonuç: Karantina döneminde ebeveynlerin atan kaygı düzeyleri aile işlevlerini olumsuz yönde etkilemiştir. Pandemi gibi halk sağlığı acil durumlarında kronik hastalığı olan çocukların ebeveynlerin dikkatle takip edilmeli, mental yönden değerlendirmeleri yapılarak erken dönemde gerekli önlemler alınmalıdır.

The Effect of Anxiety of Parents with Children with Type 1 Diabetes on Family Functioning and HbA1c Levels during the COVID-19 Pandemic Process

Abstract

Aim: This study was conducted to examine the effects of trait and state anxiety of parents who had children with type 1 diabetes on family functioning during the COVID-19 pandemic.
Materials and Method: This descriptive, cross-sectional, and correlational study was conducted during the quarantine period by using the random sampling method. The study was completed with the parents of 134 children with type 1 diabetes registered in the pediatric endocrinology outpatient clinic of a hospital in western Turkey.
Results: It was determined that the family functions of parents with children with type 1 diabetes were mostly affected by state anxiety level and trait anxiety level and HbA1c level, respectively. It was found that 45% (F= 36.764, p<.001) of the factors affecting family functioning in the model were explained by state and trait anxiety levels and HbA1c level.
Conclusion: The anxiety levels of parents during the quarantine period negatively affected family functioning. In public health emergencies such as pandemics, parents of children with chronic diseases should be followed carefully, mental assessments should be made, and necessary measures should be taken in the early period.
