Publication Open Access Autism Awareness Scale for Security Officers Working in Hospitals: A Study of Validity and Reliability(MARMARA UNIV, INST HEALTH SCIENCES, 2020-10-26) SARISALTIK, ALİCAN; Karavus, Melda; Hidiroglu, Seyhan; Sarisaltik, Alican; Ilgin, Can; Yuksel, Gulsum Hatice; Seker, Abdullah Omer; Kumru, Pinar; Save, Dilsad; Luleci, Nimet EmelObjective: The purpose of this study was to evaluate the knowledge and awareness toward autism among security officers working in hospitals and to explore the validity and reliability of the Autism Awareness Scale for Security Officers (AASSO) developed by the researchers. Methods: This methodological study was conducted at two Government Training and Research Hospitals in Istanbul, Turkey. A total of 135 security officers were included in the study and the data were obtained between February and April 2019. The AASSO is a 4-point Likert type scale and consists of 20 items. The factor structure of the scale was extracted by performing exploratory factor analysis. Results: Most of the participants were male (n=79; 58.5%) and high school graduates (n=86; 67.7%). Participants considered autism mostly as a kind of mental retardation (n=69; 51.9%), followed by social interaction problem (n=24; 18.0%). The AASSO reduces autism awareness into 3 factors ('Coming across', 'Communication' and `Interaction with the environment'), with eigenvalues ranging from 9.417 to 1.201 and explained 65.45% of all variance. Cronbach's alpha values for the AASSO was 0.936 and ranged from 0.921 to 0.809 for the subscales. Conclusion: According to these results AASSO is a valid and reliable scale. The consequence of further studies especially conducted on non-healthcare professionals of hospitals should be establishing autism-friendly hospitals.Publication Metadata only Oti̇zmde spor etki̇nli̇kleri̇ni̇n davranış ve sosyalleşme üzeri̇ndeki̇ olasi etki̇leri̇ni̇ değerlendi̇ren ni̇teli̇ksel bi̇r çalışma(2022-12-01) LÜLECİ, NİMET EMEL; KARAVUŞ, MELDA; SAVE, DİLŞAD; HIDIROĞLU, SEYHAN; Peker Ş., Hıdıroğlu S., Karavuş M., Tepe P., Akçabey S., Kaya A.

C., ALTAŞ Z. M., Nisar A., Atif N., Sikander S., HIDIROĞLU S., SAVE D., et al.© 2023, The Author(s).Background: Women with perinatal depression and their children are at increased risk of poor health outcomes. There is a need to implement non-stigmatizing interventions into existing health systems which reduce psychosocial distress during pregnancy and prevent perinatal depression. We adapted the WHO-endorsed Thinking Healthy Programme (THP) to be delivered universally to all women attending routine online pregnancy schools in Istanbul, Turkey. This study aimed to evaluate the feasibility and acceptability of this intervention. Methods: This mixed-methods study incorporated a two-arm pilot randomized controlled trial and qualitative evaluation of the feasibility and acceptability of the adapted THP – Brief Group version (THP-BGV) to a range of stakeholders. We recruited pregnant women at 12-30 weeks’ gestation through pregnancy schools within the University Hospital’s catchment area. Women in the intervention arm received five online sessions of the THP-BGV delivered by antenatal nurses. The intervention employed principles of cognitive behaviour therapy to provide psychoeducation, behaviour activation, problem-solving strategies and group support to participants. In the control arm, women received usual care consisting of routine online educational pregnancy classes aided by the antenatal nurses. The women were assessed for depressive symptoms with the Edinburgh Postnatal Depression Scale at baseline and 4-6 weeks post-intervention and also evaluated for anxiety, perceived social support, partner relationship, level of disability and sleep quality. In-depth interviews were conducted with women and other key stakeholders. Results: Of the 99 consecutive women referred to the pregnancy schools, 91 (91.9%) were eligible and 88 (88.8%) consented to participate in the study and were randomized. Eighty-two (83%) completed the final assessments. Our main findings were that this preventive group intervention was feasible to be integrated into routine antenatal educational classes and it was valued by the women and delivery-agents. While the study was not powered to detect differences between intervention and control conditions, we found small trends towards reduction in anxiety and depressive symptoms favoring the intervention arm. No serious adverse events were reported. Conclusions: Given the paucity of preventive interventions for perinatal depression in low and middle-income countries, a fully powered definitive randomized controlled trial of this feasible and acceptable intervention should be conducted. Trial registration: The study was registered at Clinical Trails.gov (NCT04819711) (Registration Date: 29/03/2021).Publication Open Access The Knowledge and Attitude about Diarrhea of Mothers of Students Attending an Elementary School in a Suburban Area in Istanbul(MARMARA UNIV, INST HEALTH SCIENCES, 2019-08-31) SAVE, DİLŞAD; Keskin, Nese; Surmen, Aysen; Save, Dilsad; Hidiroglu, Seyhan; Karavus, MeldaObjective: Diarrhea is one of the main cause of morbidity and mortality among children age under 5 years in Turkey though diarrheal disease control program has been performing and death ratio due to diarrheal disease under 5 years has been decreasing year by year in Turkey. This study is undertaken to evaluate knowledge, attitude and practice of mothers about childhood diarrheal diseases in a suburban area. Methods: This descriptive study was carried out in a primary school in a suburban area of Istanbul. One hundred and forty four mothers of children included accepted in the study with response rate of 85%. A questionnaire form was applied for data collection. Epi-Info programme was used for statistical analysis. In addition to the descriptive statistical methods, for the comparison of qualitative data a chi-square test was used. Results: In our study, the percentage of mothers who could define diarrhea correctly was 40%. Abdominal pain and watery defecation were the main signs which the mothers understand their children have diarrhea. Most of the mothers indicated that microbes as the cause of diarrhea. One of every two mothers stated that they would take their children to the doctor as they notice their child has diarrhea. Among the homemade treatments we asked, Potatoes cooked in boiling water and banana were the most frequent answers. Only one of mothers mentioned about using drugs at home for diarrhea and percentage of hearing about ORS was 21.5%. Eleven percent of mothers mentioned they believed to decrease liquid intake would be an effective practice in the treatment of diarrhea. Education level was very influential about knowledge and attitude about diarrheal disease. Conclusion: This study reveals the importance of continuous health education of mothers as well as the need for raising their status especially schooling in communities. Circulating of correct information is also important as well as educating population.Publication Metadata only The opinion of physicians who participated in community-oriented primaryhealth care work shop during their medical education: a qualitative study(2023-03-03) HIDIROĞLU, SEYHAN; SAVE, DİLŞAD; KARAVUŞ, MELDA; Keser N.

E., US M. C., ATIF N., NISAR A., ALTAŞ Z. M., HIDIROĞLU S., SAVE D., RAHMAN A.Giriş Perinatal depresyon gebelik ve doğum sonrası ilk bir yılda ülkemizde %19.2 sıklıkla yaygın olarak görülmektedir. Dünya Sağlık Örgütünün rehberine göre perinatal depresyona yönelik ilk basamak tedavide önerilen kanıta dayalı Bilişsel Davranışçı Terapi temelli Sağlıklı Düşünme programının (SDP) grup formatında geliştirilmesi ve mevcut gebelik hizmetleriyle bütünleştirilmesine yönelik uygulanabilirlik çalışmasının yapılması amaçlanmıştır. Materyal ve Metot Gebe okulu programıyla bütünleştirilmiş SDP grup müdahalesinin, rutin gebe okulunun bir hemşire tarafından yürütülerek geliştirilmiş hali ile karşılaştırması amacıyla iki kollu pilot randomize kontrollü bir çalışma tasarlanmıştır. Araştırmanın evrenini 8 Nisan 2021-8 Eylül 2021 arasında çevrimiçi yürütülen gebe okulu oturumlarına katılmayı kabul etmiş 12-30 gebelik haftasındaki kadınlar oluşturmuştur. Değerlendirmede nitel ve nicel yöntemlerin karışımı kullanılmıştır. Çalışma başlangıcında ve müdahaleden 4-6 hafta sonra Edinburg Postpartum Depresyon Ölçeği (EPDS), Hasta Sağlık Anketi-9 (PHQ-9), Yaygın Anksiyete Bozukluğu-7 (GAD7), Başa Çıkma Stratejileri Kısa Formu (COPE), Çok Boyutlu Algılanan Sosyal Destek Ölçeği (MSPSS), İlişki Değerlendirme Ölçeği (RAS), Pittsburgh Uyku Kalitesi İndeksi (PSQI), Dünya Sağlık Örgütü Yetiyitimi Değerlendirme Ölçeği (WHODAS) uygulanmıştır. Bulgular 158 kadından 8’i çalışmaya dahil edilme kriterlerini karşılamazken, 34 kadın (%22,6) çalışmaya katılmayı reddetmiştir. Yönlendirilen 99 kadından 91’i (%91,9) başlangıç değerlendirmesini tamamlanarak, 88’i randomize edilmiştir. Randomize edilen kadınların 73’ünün (%83) son değerlendirmeleri tamamlanmıştır. Müdahale grubu depresyon ve kaygı puanlarında 4-6 hafta sonra anlamlı derecede azalma, COPE puanlarında ise artış görülürken, kontrol grubu için ortalama puanlar WHODAS dışında değişmemiştir. Gruplar arasında anlamlı fark saptanmazken, müdahale grubu katılımcılarında daha düşük depresif belirtilere doğru bir eğilim görülmüştür. Sonuç Pilot çalışmadan elde edilen bulgularımız programın kültürel olarak kabul edilebilir, uygulanabilir, mevcut sağlık hizmetleriyle bütünleşebilir olduğunu, kadının iyilik hali dışında evlilik ilişkisi, doğmamış bebekle ilişkisi, sağlıklı yaşam alışkanlıklarının geliştirilmesi gibi yaygın etkilerinin olduğunu göstermektedir. Ayrıca programın grup formatının sosyal destek ağı olarak görüldüğü saptanmıştır. Sonuçlar program etkinliğinin gösterilmesi amaçlı geniş çaplı planlanacak çalışmanın nasıl uygulanabileceğini içermektedir.Publication Open Access A qualitative analysis evaluating how medical students perceive COVID-19 pandemic and its impact on their lives: Life in the Pandemic(2023-06-01) AYVAZ, İLKNUR; GİRGİN, ŞEVKET; LÜLECİ, NİMET EMEL; HIDIROĞLU, SEYHAN; TOPUZOĞLU, AHMET; SAVE, DİLŞAD; KARAVUŞ, MELDA; Ataoğlu B. N., Kesen Yurtcanlı C. H., Doğanç F. B., Çekici D., Peker Ş., Bakır Keser N., Ayvaz İ., Girgin Ş., Sandal Kılıç A., Doğan Jamil S., et al.One of the groups experiencing the pandemic’s effects were students. This study was aimed to evaluate the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic on the lives of medical students and also to see their perspectives about the pandemic. This study is designed as a qualitative study. In-depth interviews were conducted with 30 medical students on an online platform in February 2022, at the end of the third peak period. A semi-structured question guide used as a data collection tool. First, questions about individual characteristics then open-ended questions about their COVID-19 pandemic perception and its impact on their lives were asked. The thematic analysis method was used and \"Life in the pandemic\" were grouped into two main themes: 1.Perception of the Pandemic and Consequent Impact on Life and 2. Pandemic Period and Its Impact on Life. The median age was 22. Half of the participants have been diagnosed with COVID-19. All of the participants were vaccinated. In this study it has been observed that the majority of the medical students have perceived the COVID-19 pandemic as a difficult period and also as a new, uncertain and adverse situation. Another adverse effect perceived by the majority was restriction of social life. Fear and anxiety were most commonly used to express their mood during the pandemic. During the pandemic students individual, mental and social lives are highly affected. While negative effects are generally seen during the social isolation process, this situation has eased with the normalisation of the process.Publication Metadata only Do perceived health risks outweigh the benefits of modern contraceptives? A qualitative study in a suburban population in Istanbul, Turkey(TAYLOR & FRANCIS LTD, 2007) TOPUZOĞLU, AHMET; Ay, P.; Hidiroglu, S.; Topuzoglu, A.; Ucar, M. Solakoglu; Kose, O. O.; Save, D.Objectives To evaluate the health concerns and the perceived non-contraceptive benefits of modern contraceptive methods through utilizing qualitative methods. Methods Six focus group discussions were carried out with a total of 53 married women in a socio-economically disadvantaged community in Istanbul, Turkey. Results Women had a vague knowledge of the mechanism of menstruation. Some women believed that the uterus was filled with blood-termed 'dirty blood'-which should be eliminated during menstruation in order to stay healthy. For this reason, amenorrhoea was recognized as the important disadvantage of the progestin-only injectable contraceptives. While the participants mentioned fallacious and exaggerated side effects related to modern methods they did not recognize their non-contraceptive benefits. Most women gained the information concerning side effects through their social networks. Sometimes the information acquired was based on rumours that biased women against the modern contraceptives. Conclusions Women outweighed the risks, some of which were fallacious and exaggerated, against the benefits of modern contraceptives. It is crucial to address health concerns of women and what they 'heard' from their peers during counselling sessions. Also the non-contraceptive health benefits of modern methods should be well emphasized. Since informal sources are prevalent, the effectiveness of peer education should be studied in this community.Publication Open Access A qualitative analysis evaluating how medical students perceive covid-19 pandemic and its impact on their lives: life in the pandemic(2023-06-01) HIDIROĞLU, SEYHAN; SAVE, DİLŞAD; KARAVUŞ, MELDA; Ataoğlu B.
