Zonguldak'ta Yaşayan Romanların Sağlıkla İlişkili Yaşam Kalitesi ve Kronik Hastalık Durumu

Bu çalışma Romanların kronik hastalık durumlarını ve sağlıkla ilişkili yaşam kalitesini (HQOL) etkileyen sosyodemografik özelliklerini incelemek amacıyla planlanmıştır.Gereç ve Yöntem: Kesitsel tipteki bu çalışma 1 Şubat-30 Nisan 2015 tarihleri arasında Zonguldak ilinde Karaelmas Aile Sağlığı Merkezi’ne başvuran 317 Roman üzerinde yapılmıştır. 18 yaş ve üstü olan, iletişim engeli olmayan ve çalışmaya katılmaya istekli Romanlar araştırmaya dahil edilmiştir. Veriler araştırmacılar tarafından hazırlanan, sosyodemografik özellikleri ve hastalık varlığını sorgulayan 11 maddeden oluşan anket formu ve SF-36 yaşam kalitesi ölçeği ile toplanmıştır. Bulgular ve Sonuç: Romanlarda en yaygın görülen kronik hastalık hipertansiyondur. Yanı sıra % 19,4’ünde eşlik eden kronik bir hastalık vardır. Kronik hastalığı olanların yaşam kalitesinin daha düşük olduğu, sosyodemografik özelliklerinden yaş, eğitim, ekonomik ve çalışma durumunun yaşam kalitesini etkilediği bulunmuştur(p<0.05).Yaşam kalitesinin en düşük puanı canlılık, en yüksek puanı sosyal fonksiyon alanındandır. Yaşam kalitesi değerlendirilmesinde kronik hastalık durumunun ön planda tutulması, ancak sosyodemografik özelliklerden gelir ve öğrenim durumunun da göz ardı edilmemesi, Romanların yaşam kalitesini etkileyen faktörler hakkında düzenli eğitimler yapılması önerilebilir.
