                            <p>Amaç: Bu çalışma, Doğu Kudüs’te (DK) sağlık hizmetlerinin sunumu ve nüfus göstergelerini değerlendirmeyi amaçlamakta olup, sağlık planlaması, değerlendirmesi ve karar alma süreçlerinde hem kurumsal hem de politika düzeyinde kullanılabilir.Yöntemler: Mix yöntem yaklaşımı benimsenmiştir. Nicel bileşen, sağlık koşulları ve sağlık hizmetleri kullanımını değerlendiren bir hane halkı anketini içermektedir; bu anket, 3.747 hane halkı ve 16.433 bireyi kapsamıştır. Nitel bileşen ise, sağlık kurumları yöneticileriyle yapılan yarı yapılandırılmış görüşmeleri içermektedir.Bulgular: Çocuklar arasında en sık görülen hastalıklar solunum hastalıkları (%0,50) ve kardiyovasküler hastalıklardır (%0,30). Yetişkinlerde ise diyabet (%4,32) ve hipertansiyon dâhil kardiyovasküler hastalıklar (%2,84) yaygındır. Doğu Kudüs’teki beş hastane, toplamda 651 yatak kapasitesiyle DK, Batı Şeria ve Gazze’deki hastalara hizmet vermektedir. 2018 yılında bu hastanelerde 80.000’den fazla yatan hasta ve 240.000 ayakta hasta tedavi edilmiştir. Filistin Sağlık Bakanlığı aynı yıl 43.256 vakayı DK hastanelerine sevk etmiş olup, bu rakam dış sevklerin %40’ına tekabül etmektedir. Sigara kullanımı 18 yaş üstü yetişkinler arasında %29,0 olarak belirlenmiştir. Rehabilitasyon hizmetleri sağlık merkezlerinin %55’inde mevcutken ruh sağlığı hizmetleri sınırlıdır. Hastaların yaklaşık %63’ü sağlık hizmetlerinden memnuniyetini belirtmiş, ancak İsrail hastanelerine sevklerde dil engelleri ve uzun bekleme süreleri gibi sorunlar dile getirilmiştir.Sonuçlar: DK hastaneleri, Batı Şeria ve Gazze’den gelen önemli sevklerle tam kapasiteye yakın çalışarak temel üçüncü basamak sağlık hizmetleri sunmaktadır. Ancak uzun bekleme süreleri, sağlık merkezleri arasındaki yüksek rekabet ve ruh sağlığı, fizyoterapi ve rehabilitasyon alanlarında personel yetersizliği gibi zorluklar bulunmaktadır. Özellikle Shu’fat bölgesinde uyuşturucu kullanımı ciddi bir sosyal sorundur. Hasta memnuniyeti yüksek olmakla birlikte, ileri teknoloji ve profesyonellik açısından İsrail hastaneleri tercih edilmektedir. Yerel sağlık merkezlerine yatırım yapılması, hizmet kalitesinin artırılması ve teşhis, rehabilitasyon ve ruh sağlığı gibi alanlarda uzmanlaşmış bakım hizmetlerinin artırılmasına yönelik belirgin bir ihtiyaç vardır.</p></trans-abstract>
                                                                                                                                    <abstract><p>Aim: This study aims to evaluate healthcare service delivery and population indicators in East Jerusalem (EJ) for use in health planning, evaluation, and decision-making at both institutional and policy levels.Methods: A mixed-methods approach was adopted. The quantitative component involved a household survey that assessed health conditions and healthcare utilization across 3,747 households, covering 16,433 individuals. The qualitative component included semi-structured interviews with healthcare institution managers. Results: Among children, respiratory illnesses (0.50%) and cardiovascular diseases (0.30%) were the most common. In adults, diabetes (4.32%) and cardiovascular diseases, including hypertension (2.84%), were prevalent. The five hospitals in EJ, with a total of 651 beds, serve residents of EJ, the West Bank, and Gaza. In 2018, EJ hospitals treated over 80,000 inpatients and 240,000 outpatients. The Palestinian Ministry of Health referred 43,256 cases to EJ hospitals, accounting for 40% of all external referrals. Smoking prevalence among adults over 18 was 29.0%. Rehabilitation services were available in 55% of health centers, but mental health services were limited. Around 63% of patients expressed satisfaction with healthcare services, though language barriers and long wait times were issues when referred to Israeli hospitals.Conclusions: EJ hospitals operate near capacity, providing essential tertiary healthcare services and managing substantial referrals from the West Bank and Gaza. Key challenges include long waiting times, high competition among healthcare centers, and shortages in mental health, physiotherapy, and rehabilitation staff. Drug use, particularly in Shu’fat, is a significant social issue. Although patient satisfaction is high, Israeli hospitals are often preferred due to their advanced technologies. There is a clear need to invest in local healthcare centers, improve service quality, and increase specialized care availability, particularly in diagnostics, rehabilitation, and mental health services.</p></abstract>
