Abstract

Öz
Sağlık okuryazarlığı becerileri, insanların sağlık durumlarındaki potansiyellerini gerçekleştirmek için kullandıkları becerilerdir. Bu beceriler, ya sağlık bilgileri ve hizmetlerini anlamlandırmak ya da başkalarına sağlık bilgileri ve hizmetleri sağlamak için uygulanır. Yetersiz sağlık okuryazarlığı becerileri, daha riskli davranış, daha kötü sağlık, daha az öz yönetim ve daha fazla hastaneye yatma ve maliyet ile ilişkilidir. Sağlık okuryazarlığının güçlendirilmesinin bireysel ve toplumsal direnci geliştirdiği, sağlık eşitsizliklerinin ele alınmasında yardımcı olduğu ve sağlık ve refahı iyileştirdiği gösterilmiştir. Sağlık bilgilerine ve hizmetlerine ihtiyacı olan herkesin aynı zamanda sağlık okuryazarlığı becerilerine de ihtiyacı vardır. Sağlık okuryazarlığının, diyabet dahil olmak üzere kronik hastalıkların sağlık sonuçlarıyla ilişkili olduğu bilinmektedir. Temel sağlık bakımı alan tip 2 diyabetli hastalarda yetersiz sağlık okuryazarlığı, bağımsız olarak daha kötü glisemik kontrol ve daha yüksek retinopati oranları ile ilişkili bulunmuştur. Yetersiz sağlık okuryazarlığı, dezavantajlı popülasyonlar arasında diyabetle ilgili sorunların orantısız yüküne katkıda bulunmaktadır. Diyabette sağlık okuryazarlığı, diyabet bilgisi, öz-yeterlilik ve öz bakım davranışları ve glisemik kontrol ile ilgilidir. Sağlık okuryazarlığı, diyabetli hastalarda görülen ırksal farklılıkların daha iyi anlaşılmasını da sağlayabilir. Bu rolünün anlayışına dayanarak, sağlık okuryazarlığına yönelik stratejiler, diyabet bakımını geliştirmek için olanaklar sağlamaktadır. Bu derlemenin amacı, sağlık okuryazarlığına ilişkin farkındalığı artırmak, sağlık okuryazarlığı ve diyabet ile ilişkilendiren mevcut kanıtları özetlemek ve diyabette sağlık eşitsizliklerini azaltmak için hastalar ve sağlık hizmeti sağlayıcıları arasındaki iletişimi güçlendirmek için stratejiler sunmaktır.

Health Literacy and Diabetes Mellitus

Abstract

Health literacy skills are those people use to realize their potential in health situations. They apply these skills either to make sense of health information and services or provide health information and services to others. Weak health literacy skills are associated with riskier behaviour, poorer health, less self-management and more hospitalization and costs. Strengthening health literacy has been shown to build individual and community resilience, help address health inequities and improve health and well-being. Anyone who needs health information and services also needs health literacy skills to. Health literacy is known to be associated with health outcomes, including chronic disease and diabetes. Among primary care patients with Type 2 diabetes, inadequate health literacy is independently associated with worse glycemic control and higher rates of retinopathy. Inadequate health literacy may contribute to the disproportionate
burden of diabetes related problems among disadvantaged populations. In diabetes, health literacy is related to diabetes knowledge, self-efficacy and self-care behaviors and glycemic control. Health literacy may also provide a better understanding of racial disparities observed in patients with diabetes. Strategies to address health literacy, based upon this understanding of its role, provide a means to improve diabetes care. The purpose of this review is to raise awareness of the health literacy, summarize the current evidence linking health literacy and diabetes, and offer strategies to strengthen the communication between patients and health care providers to decrease diabetes health disparities.
