Abstract
AMAÇ: Araştırmanın amacı İstanbul‟da bir sağlık ocağında kronik hastalıklar ve risk faktörleri ile ilgili kaçırılmış fırsatların araştırılmasıdır. YÖNTEM: Tanımlayıcı tipteki bu araştırma İstanbul‟da bir birinci basamak sağlık kuruluşuna bir aylık süre içerisinde başvuran 500 kişi ile yürütüldü. Katımcılar 2006 Birinci Basamak Rehberine göre, ana risk faktörleri (sigara içme, obezite, diyabetes mellitus, hipertansiyon, ailede koroner kalp hastalığı, glisemik düzey ve kolesterol düzeyi) ve düzenli egzersiz yapma açısından sorgulanma durumları soruldu. Veriler tanımlayıcı istatistik ve ki-kare testiyle değerlendirildi. BULGULAR: Katılımcıların yaş ortancası 40 (25.p; 32-75.p;52) idi ve 76,4%‟ü kadın iken, 50,4%‟ü kilolu, 20,8%‟i obezdi. Katılımcıların 36,2%‟si sigara kullanıyordu, 22,0%‟si hipertansifti ve 10,4%‟ü hiperglisemikti. Kaçırılmış fırsatlar obezite ve kan kolesterol düzeylerinin sorgulanmasıyla ilgili yaklaşık 90,0%, hipertansiyonla ilgili 70,0% ve diyabetle ilgili 85,0% idi. SONUÇ: Sağlık ocağında kronik hastalıklar ve risk faktörleriyle ilgili fırsatlar kaçırılmakta ve risk faktörlerinin sorgulanması ihmal edilmektedir.
