Objective: Tuberculosis (TB) is an infectious disease that is among the leading causes of death. TB can easily spread by aerosols from pulmonary TB patients. Pharmacists are unique among healthcare professionals because patients can easily and directly access them. Therefore, they have to take responsibility for management and early detection of TB. The aim of this study was to evaluate TB related awareness and level of knowledge of pharmacy students in a foundation university.
Material and Method: This cross-sectional study was conducted to evaluate the knowledge and attitudes of undergraduate pharmacy students about TB. A face-to-face survey was made to students in their classrooms after ethical committee’s approval was received and verbal consent of participants obtained. A total of 238 students answered the survey. Descriptive statistical methods and Pearson Chi-Square test are used for the evaluation of the data.
Result and Discussion: We found that all of the students knew tuberculosis, but some of them lacked knowledge on some topics such as the symptoms of the disease, risk factors, definitive diagnosis, and drug resistance rates. Pharmacists who have an important role in public health should be informed and advised to be updated about TB during their undergraduate education. In addition, it should be ensured that they take responsibility to raise public awareness of TB which causes thousands of deaths each year.

ECZACILIK FAKÜLTESİ ÖĞRENCİLERİNİN TÜBERKÜLOZA İLİŞKİN FARKINDALIK VE BİLGİ DÜZEYLERİNİN DEĞERLENDİRİLMESİ: BİR VAKIF ÜNİVERSİTESİ ÖRNEĞİ

Amaç: Tüberküloz (TB), önde gelen ölüm nedenleri arasında yer alan bir enfeksiyon hastalığıdır. TB, akciğer tüberkülozlu hastalardan aerosoller aracılığı ile kolayca yayılabilir. Eczacılar, hastaların onlara doğrudan ve kolayca ulaşabildiği tek sağlık çalışanlarıdır. Bu nedenle, TB'nin yönetimi ve erken teşhisi için sorumluluk almak zorundadırlar. Bu çalışmanın amacı, bir vakıf üniversitesindeki eczacılık öğrencilerinin tüberküloz ile ilgili farkındalık ve bilgi düzeylerini değerlendirmektir.
Gereç ve Yöntem: Bu kesitsel çalışma, eczacılık lisans öğrencilerinin tüberküloz hakkındaki bilgi ve tutumlarını değerlendirmek amacıyla yapılmıştır. Etik kurul onayı ve katılımcıların sözlü onamları alındıktan sonra öğrencilere sınıflarında yüz yüze uygulanmıştır. Toplam 238 öğrenci anketi cevapladı. Verilerin değerlendirilmesinde tanımlayıcı istatistiksel yöntemler ve Pearson Ki-Kare testi kullanılmıştır.
Sonuç ve Tartışma: Öğrencilerin tamamının tüberkülozu bildiğini ancak bir kısmının hastalığın belirtileri, risk faktörleri, kesin tanı, ilaç direnç oranları gibi konularda bilgi eksikliği olduğunu bulduk. Halk sağlığında önemli bir yere sahip olan eczacılar, lisans eğitimleri sırasında TB hastalığı hakkında bilgilendirilmeli ve bilgilerini güncel tutmaları tavsiye edilmelidir. Ayrıca her yıl binlerce ölüme neden olan tüberküloz hastalığı konusunda toplumu bilinçlendirmek için sorumluluk almaları sağlanmalıdır.
