Hemşirelik Öğrencilerinin Çocukluk Çağındaki Ağrı Deneyimlerinin Yetişkinlik Çağındaki Ağrı Korkusuna Etkisi

Öz

Ağrı korkusu, olumsuz yorumlardan ve ağrının zarar vermekle eşdeğer olduğunu düşünmekten kaynaklanır. Bu araştırma, öğrenci hemşirelerin çocukluk çağı ağrı deneyimlerinin yetişkinlik çağındaki ağrı korkusuna etkisini belirlemek amacıyla yapılmıştır. Araştırma, tanımlayıcı ve kesitsel tipte olup örneklemini bir devlet üniversitesinde öğrenim gören 176 hemşirelik öğrencisi oluşturmuştur. Verileri toplamada, araştırmacıların literatür doğrultusunda hazırladığı bir bilgi formu ve Ağrı Korkusu Ölçeği-III kullanılmıştır. Çocukluk döneminde uygulanan aynı tıbbi işlemlerde yaşanılan ağrılı deneyimler ile şimdiki yaşta yaşadıkları ağrı karşılaştırıldığında, öğrencilerin %65.9' unun şu an daha az ağrı yaşadığı belirlenmiştir. Ağrı Korkusu Ölçeği-III’ten öğrencilerin aldıkları toplam puan ortalaması 80.57±19.77'dir. Öğrencilerin çocukluk çağında yaşadıkları ağrı deneyimlerinin yetişkinlik çağındaki ağrı korkusunu etkilediği saptanmıştır (p<0.005). Çocuklukta yaşanılan olumlu ağrı deneyimleri, yetişkinlikte daha az ağrı korkusu yaşanmasını sağlamaktadır.
