Attitudes’ of University Students towards Organ Donation and Transplantation
Öz: Objective: The purpose of this study was to identify theconsciousness and attitudes toward organ and tissue donationand transplantation among the university students in facultyof economics and administrative sciences, department ofhealth management.Material-Method: This study used a cross-sectional approach.It was conducted between December 2017 and March 2018.Data were collected from 362 students in faculty of economicsand administrative sciences, department of health management.Results: According to the results of this study, healthmanagement students support organ and tissue donation andtransplantation (82%). Despite the fact that a small numberof students were generally willing to donate their organs andtissue (3.9%), the majority of the students are in a positivemanner toward donation and transplantation. The basicreasons for the students who do not want to donate theirtissues and organs are belief (33.8%) and fear (46.2%). Whenlooking at the regression model, being informed is statisticallysignificant predictor for the positive attitude toward organ andtissue donation and transplantation. The other independentvariables (gender, age, income, rural / urban) have no role inthe regression model.Conclusions: Although the students have knowledge andpositive attitude about organ and tissue transplantation anddonation, it is seen that the level of consciousness is not sufficientto be a donor. In order to overcome these obstacles, students whodo not want to make donations due to fear, family influence orbelief need to be educated.
Anahtar Kelime: Üniversite Öğrencilerinin Organ Bağışına ve Nakline Yönelik Tutumları
Öz: Amaç: Bu çalışmanın amacı, sağlık yönetimi bölümünde okuyan üniversite öğrencileri arasında organ/doku bağışı ve nakli konusundaki bilinç ve tutumları tespit etmektir. Materyal-Metot: Bu çalışmada kesitsel bir yaklaşım kullanılmıştır. Çalışma, Aralık 2017-Mart 2018 tarihleri arasında gerçekleştirilmiştir. Araştırma, bir kamu üniversitesinin sağlık yönetimi bölümündeki 362 öğrenciden veri toplanmıştır. Bulgular: Bu araştırmanın sonuçlarına göre sağlık yönetimi öğrencileri organ ve doku bağışı ve transplantasyonunu desteklemektedir (%82). Az sayıda öğrenci (%3,9), organ ve dokularını bağışlamaya istekli olmasına rağmen öğrencilerin çoğunluğu bağış ve transplantasyona karşı olumlu bir tutum içindedir. Doku ve organlarını bağışlamak istemeyen öğrencilerin temel nedenleri din (%33,8) ve korkudur (%46,2). Regresyon modeline bakıldığında, bilgilendirilmek organ/doku bağışı ve transplantasyonuna yönelik olumlu tutum için istatistiksel olarak anlamlı bir belirleyicidir. Diğer değişkenlerin (cinsiyet, yaş, gelir, kırsal / kentsel) regresyon modelinde rolü bulunmamıştır. Sonuç: Öğrencilerin organ nakli ve bağışı konusunda bilgisi ve pozitif tutumu bulunsa da, bağışçı olma konusunda bilinç düzeyleri yeterli olmadığı görülmektedir. Korku, aile etkisi ya da inanç gibi nedenler ile bağış yapmak istemeyen öğrencilerin bu engelleri aşması için bu konuda eğitilmesi gerekmektedir.
