Türk Kadınlarında Mamografiye Bağlı Ağrı ve Anksiyete: Kesitsel Bir Çalışma

Öz

Amaç: Bu çalışma kadınlarda mamografi ile ilişkili ağrı ve anksiyete düzeyini belirlemek amacıyla yapılmıştır. Yöntem: Kesitsel olan bu çalışma Türkiye'de üçüncü basamak bir hastanede Radyoloji Bölümü Mamografi Birimi'nde 222 kadının katılımı ile yapılmıştır. Çalışmada Görsel Analog Skala ve Durumluk-Sürekli Kaygı Envanteri ile bir anket formu kullanılmıştır. Bulgular: Bu çalışmada, kadınların % 70,7'sinin mamografi sırasında ağrı yaşadıkları belirlenmiştir. Kadınların yaklaşık dörtte biri mamografiyi acı verici bir prosedür olarak tanımlamaktadır. Bu çalışmada kadınlarda mamografiye bağlı ağrı düzeyinin 38,40 ± 22,46 ve “orta” düzeyde olduğu görülmüştür. Mamografi sırasında kadınların ortalama 40,0 ve "hafif" düzeyde kaygı yaşadıkları belirlenmiştir. Ağrı sıklığı ile kaygı arasında istatistiksel olarak anlamlı bir fark bulunmamıştır. Sonuç: Mamografi sırasında kadınların yaşadığı ağrıyı en aza indirmek ve ağrının kadınlar için mamografi çekimine engel olmasını önlemek sağlık profesyonellerinin önemli görevidir.

About a quarter of women describe mammography as a painful procedure. Mammography-related pain level was found to be at the 38.40 ± 22.46 and “moderate” level among the participants. It was determined that women during mammography experienced mean 40.0 and "mild" anxiety level. There was no statistically significant difference between the frequency of pain and anxiety. Conclusion: It is the important duty of health professionals to minimize the pain experienced by women during mammography and to prevent pain from being an obstacle to mammography.
