HEMŞİRELERİN MULTİPL SKLEROZ VE BAKIMINA YÖNELİK BİLGİ DÜZEYLERİNİN DEĞERLENDİRİLMESİ

Öz

Amaç: Bu çalışma hemşirelerin Multipl Sklerozlu bireylerin bakımına ilişkin bilgi düzeylerini değerlendirmek amacıyla tanımlayıcı olarak uygulandı. Yöntem: Araştırma, Türkiye genelinde hemşire olarak çalışan, e-posta ve telefon bilgilerine ulaşılan kişilerle çok merkezli olarak gerçekleştirildi. Örneklemi araştırmaya katılmaya gönüllü olan 379 hemşire oluşturdu. Veriler, "Katılımcı Bilgi Formu" ve "Multipl Skleroz ve Bakım Bilgi Düzeyi Değerlendirme Formu" ile toplandı. Bulgular: Katılımcıların bilgi puanları yaş değişkenine ve eğitim düzeyine göre anlamlı düzeyde farklılık göstermektedir. Daha önce MS'li bireylere bakım verenlerin bilgi puanları, MS ile ilgili özel eğitim alanların bilgi puanları, MS ile ilgili makale okuyanların bilgi puanları daha yüksekti. Sonuç: Bu çalışmada hemşirelerin Multipl Skleroz ve bakımı ile ilgili bilgi düzeylerinin orta seviyenin üzerinde olduğu saptandı. Bilgi düzeylerinin deneyimden kaynaklandığı düşünülmektedir. Sonuçlar, hemşirelerin konuyla ilgili eğitimlerinin artırılmasına ihtiyaç olduğunu göstermektedir.

ASSESSMENT OF NURSES' LEVEL OF KNOWLEDGE ON MULTIPLE SCLEROSIS AND ITS CARE

Öz

Objective: The study was applied descriptively to evaluate the knowledge level of nurses about the care of individuals with Multiple Sclerosis. Method: The research was conducted in a multi-centered manner with people who work as nurses and whose e-mail and telephone information have been reached throughout Turkey. The sample consisted of 379 nurses who volunteered to participate in the study. The data were collected with the "Participant Information Form" and "Information Level Assessment Form on Multiple Sclerosis and Care". Results: The knowledge scores of the participants differ significantly according to the age variable and education level. The knowledge scores of participants who had cared for individuals with MS before, the knowledge scores of those who received special education about MS, and the knowledge scores of those who read articles about MS, were higher. Conclusion: In this study, it was found that the knowledge level of nurses about Multiple Sclerosis and its care was above the medium level. It is thought that their level of knowledge arises from experience. The results show that there is a need to increase the training of nurses on the subject.
