Abstract
Rak dojke je v Sloveniji eden izmed najpogostejših rakov pri ženskah. Na raka dojke vplivajo različni dejavniki, kot so reproduktivni dejavniki, alkohol, kajenje, telesna neaktivnost in nepravilna prehrana. S problematiko raka dojk je širša javnost premalo osveščena, zato je organizacija Europa Donna zaslužna za širjenje informacij o bolezni s številnimi aktivnostmi in projekti. Namen diplomskega dela je predstaviti raka dojke in organizacijo Europa Donna, ter z raziskavo ugotoviti poznavanje organizacije Europa Donna in osveščenost žensk o raku dojke.
V diplomskem delu je bila uporabljena deskriptivna metoda dela. Za teoretična izhodišča smo uporabili strokovno literaturo, knjige in članke o raku dojke. V empiričnem delu smo uporabili metodo anketiranja. Raziskovalni vzorec je zajemal 100 naključno izbranih žensk starih nad 18 let.
Rezultati raziskave so pokazali, da so ženske nad 30 let bolj osveščene o raku dojke, kot ženske pod 30 let starosti. 78 % anketiranih žensk si pravilno pregleduje dojke, vendar neredno. Več kot polovica anketiranih žensk pozna organizacijo Europa Donna. Največ informacij o organizaciji Europa Donna ženske dobijo preko interneta, časopisov, revij in televizije.
Zavedati se moramo, da je rak dojke ozdravljiva bolezen, če jo odkrijemo pravočasno. Zato bi se morale ženske v Sloveniji zavedati, kako zelo pomembno je samopregledovanje dojk in redno obiskovanje mamografije po 50. letu starosti. Kajti preventiva je boljša kot kurativa.

Europa Donna and women awareness of breast cancer |
Secondary abstract: |
Breast cancer is one of the most common cancers in women in Slovenia. It is influenced by various factors such as reproductive factors, alcohol, smoking, physical inactivity and poor nutrition. The biggest issue with breast cancer in Slovenia is the general lack of public awareness. The Europa Donna organization is spreading information about the disease around the country with numerous activities and projects. The goal of this diploma thesis is to present breast cancer, Europa Donna organization and to use a survey to determine awareness about the Europa Donna organization and breast cancer in slovenian women.
In the making of diploma thesis we used the descriptive method of research. For the theoretical frameworks we used professional literature, books and articles about breast cancer. In the empirical part we used a survey method. The research sample consisted of 100 randomly selected women aged over 18.
Results showed that women over 30 years of age are more aware of breast cancer problems than women under 30. 78% of women is practicing proper breast self-exam, but only irregularly. More than half of women surveyed knew the Europa Donna organization. Women find the most infromation about the Europa Donna organization women on the internet, in the newspapers, magazines and on television.
We have to realize that breast cancer is a treatable disease if detected in time. Therefore, women in Slovenia should also be aware of how important it is to practice breast self-examination and to attend mammography exams after the age of 50. Because it is better to be safe than sorry. |
