Year 2013, Volume: 7 Issue: 1, 33 - 36, 01.04.2013

Abstract

Giriş ve Amaç: Vitaminler vücutta yapılmayan ve çok küçük miktarlarıyla hücre metabolizmasında önemli reaksiyonları katalizleyen organik bileşiklerdir. Sağlıklı bir annenin sütü, D vitamini dışındaki tüm vitaminleri içerir.Vitamin eksikliğinde oluşabilecek hastalıkların önüne geçmek için yenidoğan bebeklerin hepsine özellikle D vitamini önerilmelidir. Biz bu çalışmada Yozgat ilindeki vitamin kullanma sıklığını araştırdık.Gereç ve Yöntemler: Bu çalışma, Ocak 2004 ile Ocak 2005 tarihleri arasında Yozgat Doğum ve Çocuk Bakımevi Hastanesi Çocuk Polikliniğine başvuran, 0-24 ay arası 750 çocuğun ailesine sorularak yapılmıştır.Bulgular: 750 hastanın 352’si (%50.2) hiç vitamin kullanmamış, 348’i (%49.7) ise vitamin kullanmışlardı. Vitamin kullananların158’i (%45.3) multivitamin, 75’i (%21.5) D vitamini, 115’i (%33.2) ise hem multivitamin hem de D vitamini kullandıkları tespit edildi. Vitamin kullanan hastaların 228’i (%65.5) düzenli, 120’i (%34.4) aralıklı olarak vitamin kullanmışlardı. Yaptığımız çalışmada polikliniğimize başvuran hastaların yarısının vitamin kullandıklarını, vitamin kullananların ise ancak % 65’inin düzenli kullandığı saptanmıştır.Sonuç: Bu çalışmayı, yaptığımız dönemde Yozgat bölgesinde vitamin kullanımını düşük bulduk. Bu konudaki tüm çabalara rağmen D vitamini eksikliği ve profilaksisi önemini korumaktadır.
