Abstract

Amaç: Kadına yönelik aile içi şiddet dünya çapında yaygın bir gizli sorundur. Önceki çalışmalar, onlar için ciddi fiziksel ve psikolojik sağlık sorunları sağladığını göstermiştir. Ayrıca, ülkelerin sağlık sistemine birçok maliyet getirmektedir. Aile içi şiddetin risk faktörlerinin belirlenmesi, yönetimi ve önlenmesi için stratejinin ilk adımıdır. Bu çalışmanın amacı, aile içi şiddetin yaygınlığını ve kronikliğini ve bunun Sağlık Merkezlerine başvuran kadınların sosyo-demografik özellikleri ile ilişkisini belirlemektir.

Gereç ve Yöntem: Bu kesitsel tanımlayıcı çalışma Sağlık Merkezlerine başvuran 547 kadın üzerinde yapılmıştır. Alışılagelmiş yöntemle örnekleme yapıldı ve demografik form ve CTS2 anketi ile veri toplama araçları yapıldı.

Bulgular: Katılımcıların çoğu (%98.5) geçtiğimiz yıl şiddet yaşadığını bildirdi. Şiddetin en yüksek ve en düşük olduğu bölge sırasıyla müzakere boyutu (%97.7) ve yaralanma (%10.5) oldu. Düşük aile geliri ve evlilik doyumu, kadına yönelik aile içi şiddetin önemli belirleyicileriydi.

Sonuç: Aile içi şiddet yaygınlığı yüksekti. Sağlık Merkezleri personelinin güçlendirilmesi, standart tarama araçlarının kullanılması ve önleyici müdahalelerin yapılması tavsiye edilir.
