Ramazan orucu sırasında gün içerisinde kayı ve öfke gibi psikiyatrik belirtilerde artış olabileceğini, bu nedenle orucun psikiyatrik belirtilere olumlu yönde etkisinin bir aylık süre içerisinde gelişen muhtemel uyumsal mekanizmaların devreye girmesiyle oluşabileceğini varsaydık. Bu nedenle çalışmamızda Ramazan ayı öncesi ve sonrasında genç erişkin sağlık çalışanlarında genel psikiyatrik belirtileri değerlendirdik. Gereç ve Yöntem İnönü Üniversitesi Tıp Fakültesi, Turgut Özal Tıp Merkezi’nde görev alan, 77 genç erişkin sağlık çalışanına, 2019 yılı Ramazan ayından bir hafta önce, Sosyodemografik Veri Formu, Genel Sağlık Anketi (GSA) ve Kısa Semptom Envanteri (KSE) doldurtulmuştur. Aynı katılımcılara Ramazan ayından bir hafta sonra GSA ve KSE tekrar doldurulmuştur. Verilerin analizinde SPSS 22 istatistiksel paket program kullanılmıştır. Bulgular Çalışmamıza 37’si (%48,1) erkek, 40’ı (%52,0) kadın 77 katılımcı dahil edilmiştir. Cinsiyetlere göre ölçeklerden elde edilen değerlere bakıldığında kadın katılımcılarda Ramazan ayı öncesi ve sonrası KSE ve GSA’ da sıklık ve ortalama değeler açısından istatistiksel olarak anlamlı farklılık olmadığı tespit edilmiştir. Erkekler katılımcılarda Ramazan öncesine göre sonrasında GSA’ nin hem sıklık hem de ortalama puanları, KSE’ nin alt ölçeklerinden anksiyete, paranoid düşünce ve psikotizm sıklığı ve kişiler arası duyarlılık, depresyon, paranoid düşünce ve KSE global ölçeklerinin ortalama puanları anlamlı derecede düşük saptanmıştır. Erkek katılımcılarda GSA ve KSE’ de kişiler arası duyarlılık, depresyon, paranoid düşünce, psikotizm alt ölçekleri ve tüm global indekslerdeki değişime ramazan orucunun etki büyüklüğünün küçük derecede olduğu tespit edilmiştir. Sonuç Ramazan orucu sonrası kadınlarda psikiyatrik belirtilerde anlamlı değişiklik gözlenmezken, erkeklerde bazı psikiyatrik belirtilerde iyileşme olması, orucun psikiyatik belirtilerdeki etkisinin cinsiyete göre farklılık gösterebileceğini düşündürmektedir.Öğe Communication Skills, Empathic Tendency and Affecting Factors of Assistant Doctors in Inonu Universty, Faculty of Medicine, Malatya(Medicine Science, 2015) Bozkir, Cigdem; Tekin, Cigdem; Mete, Burak; Nacar, Erkay; Ozer, AliÖz: Bu araştırma, Malatya İnönü Üniversitesi Tıp Fakültesinde ihtisas yapan asistan doktorların iletişim becerileri ve empatik eğilim düzeylerini belirlemek amacıyla yapılmış tanımlayıcı tipte bir araştırmadır.

Method: This descriptive cross-sectional study is done with 340 patients who admit Inonu Unıversity Turgut Ozal Medicine Centre cardiology, pulmonary disease, neurology, family medicine and psychiatry policlinics. Statistical analysis is done with SPSS ver. 22.0 and in all tests p<0.05 level is accepted as statistically meaningful. Results: In our study, there are 333 participants and 154 of them are female (46.2%) 179 of them are male (53.8%) and mean age is 52.37. Eighty participants are 65 years old or over. When we evaluate the chronic disease patients, the most common diagnoses are heart disease which is seen in 177 (52.1%) of participants and hypertension which is seen in 176 of participants (51.8%). 184 of participants (54.1%) are using less than 5 drugs and 149 of participants (43.8 %) are using more than 5 drugs. In the comparison of multidrug using and suffer from side effects, 50 of less than 5 drugs using participants (27.2%) and 29 of more than 5 drugs using participants (19.5%) had adverse effects, this difference is not statistically meaningful (p=0.100). Conclusion: We are in thought of family physicians can lower multi-drug using rates collaborating with patients for managing both acute and chronic diseases in our country where the cost of drugs are rising day by day. Because of that sociodemographic properties and drugs should be questioned for all the policlinics appeal of chronic disease patients and the cessation of drugs should be done according to the proper guidelines, they should be warned about drug interaction and how to use it.Öğe EVALUATION OF PATIENTS ADMISSING EMERGENCY CARE SERVICES FROM THE POINT OF VIEW OF FAMILY MEDICINE(2020) Kayhan Tetik, Burcu; Tetik, Bora; Karaoğlan, Aytaç; Alpağan, Cem; Mete, Burak; Paksoy, NurAbstract: Objectives: Inappropriate use of Emergency Department (ED) for non-urgent complaints compromises the functioning of ED and has been increasing day by day. In this study, we examined the annual data of the patients who admitted to the Emergency Department in order to determine the ratio of appropriate usage according to the definitive diagnoses of the patients and to help forward new policies regarding this issue. Materials and Methods: Files of patients, who admitted to our ED between January 1 and December 31 , 2017, were examined. Data were evaluated by SPSS software version 22 , and the analyses were performed by using the Chi-square test. A value of p <0.05 was accepted to be statistically significant. Results: We found that 72.20% (n: 42785\59282) of the people who admitted to the ED during one year had admitted for complaints that should be addressed in the primary healthcare centers or specialist policlinics and only 19.2% (n: 11359\59282) of the ED visits were appropriate. We also found that the most frequent reasons for ED visits were respiratory system symptoms and pain. Conclusion: We found that the vast majority of the patients admitted to the emergency department were not actually urgent. We suggest that measures such as effectuation of the referral system for effective use of the family medicine system, use of triage in emergency departments, and extra fees for using the emergency department inappropriately can be implemented to reduce the workload in emergency services.Öğe EVALUATION OF SUNBATHING AND PROTECTION AWARENESS ACCORDING TO THE SOCIODEMOGRAPHIC CHARACTERISTICS OF INDIVIDUALS AGED ABOVE 65 YEARS(Türk Geriatri Dergisi, 2018) Tetik, Burcu Kayhan; Saraç, Gülbahar; Mete, Burak; Şener, Serpil; Kalem, Hülya; Kılıç, EvrimÖz: Introduction: Because excessive exposure to solar radiation contributes to the aging of skin and the risk of skin cancer, protection from sunlight has become an important public health problem.

Empatik eğilim ölçeğinden alınan puan ortalamaları, temel bilimlerde çalışanlarda; 61.33±5.50, dâhili bilimlerde çalışanlarda; 63.54±7.38, cerrahi bilimlerde çalışanlarda ise 64.00±5.76 olup aradaki farklılık istatiksel olarak anlamlı bulunmamıştır (p> 0.05). Araştırmaya katılan asistan doktorların empatik eğilim ölçeği ve iletişim becerileri ölçeği puanları arasında anlamlı bir korelasyon bulunmuştur (r=0,276; p<0.01). Elde edilen bu değerler sonucunda İnönü Üniversitesi Tıp Fakültesi asistan hekimlerinin iletişim becerileri ve empatik eğilim düzeylerinin "orta düzey" olduğu, temel bilimlerde çalışan hekimlerin çalışma ortam memnuniyetlerinin daha yüksek olduğu saptanmıştırÖğe Investigating the defensive medical practices of the physicians working in the city center of Malatya(2017) Mete, Burak; Nacar, Erkay; Tekin, Çiğdem; Unver, Ertan; Güneş, GülsenAbstract: With this study, we aimed to determine the defensive medical practices of the physicians of different academic title and seniority, who are performing their duty in MalatyaAfter the approval from the ethical committee had been received, our study was conducted by performing surveys and face-to-face interviews with the practitioners, specialists, family practitioners and academicians working in the State and University hospitals as well as Private Hospitals in the city of Malatya. 234 physicians were asked to answer 19 questions regarding the defensive medical practices within the survey. 87% of the research sampling was reached. 176 (75,2%) of these physicians are male, whereas 58 (24,8%) of them are female. The mean age of the women who participated in the research is 38,9. It turned out that the physicians working in the state hospitals as well as private hospitals had referred to defensive medical practices more than those working in the university hospitals (P=0.026), and that the professors and associate professors had avoided the patients with the risk of filing a suit in temrs of medical malpractice less than the specialists and medical practitioners (p=0,003). In conclusion, it was determined that as the degree of professional experience, academic title and seniority in the physicians increased, the rate of defensive medical practices seemed to decreaseÖğe Investigation of the relationship between type 2 diabetes risk and night eating behavior(2020) Derya, Serdar; Kayhan Tetik, Burcu; Mete, BurakAbstract: The aim of this study is to determine the prevalence of night-eating behavior and risk of undiagnosed type 2 diabetes in the community and to investigate a relationship between them. The study was carried out on 1381 individuals, aged 18-80 years, and living in Malatya province, between February-March 2018. The questionnaire consisting of socio-demographic characteristics, FINDRISK scale and Night Eating Scale was applied by face-to-face interview technique. The data were evaluated by using the SPSS 22.0 program. Significance level was accepted as p <0.05. The mean score of 1381 individuals on the FINDRISK scale was 11.17 and the mean score on the night eating scale was 26.93. We found that males, those who do not do exercise and do not have breakfast regularly, those who consumed 2 liters or less water daily, and smokers had a higher risk of developing diabetes mellitus within 10-years. The risk of developing diabetes within 10 years is different in those with and without night eating behavior (p=0.010). As a result we couldn’t find any relationship between night eating behavior and risk of diabetes determined by the FINDISK scale. Further research is needed on this subject.
