Abstract

Teoretična izhodišča: Rak dojk je po svetu najpogostejši rak pri ženskah. S starostjo se ta bolezen veča. Z rednim samopregledovanjem dojk, hitrim prepoznavanjem sprememb na dojkah ter poznavanjem dejavnikov tveganja lahko ženske hitro prepoznajo bolezen. Namen: Namen diplomskega dela je bil ugotoviti, kolikšna je osveščenost žensk o samopregledovanju dojk v Pomurski regiji. Metodologija raziskovanja: Raziskava je temeljila na kvantitativni metodologiji. Podatke smo pridobili s pomočjo anketnega vprašalnika, ki je vseboval 15 vprašanj zaprtega tipa. Raziskovalni vzorec je zajemal 100 naključno izbranih žensk. Rezultati: Rezultati raziskave so pokazali, da so anketirane ženske seznanjene s pravilno tehniko samopregledovanja dojk, saj si 86 % žensk dojke samopregleduje stoje pred ogledalom, vendar pa samo 22 % žensk samopregledovanje izvaja redno, enkrat na mesec. Znanje tehnike za samopregledovanje dojk je 34 % žensk pridobilo od svojega ginekologa in prav tako 34 % žensk iz strokovnih člankov, samo 6 % pa od medicinske sestre. Anketiranke tudi premalo poznajo dejavnike tveganja, ki povzročajo raka dojke. Sklep: Ženske se morajo zavedati, da je rak dojk ozdravljiva bolezen, če je le odkrita pravočasno. Največ lahko storijo same, s samopregledovanjem dojk ter poznavanjem dejavnikov tveganja. V Sloveniji uspešno deluje tudi državni program presejanja za raka dojk DORA, ki vabi vse ženske med 50. in 69. letom na mamografski pregled vsaki dve leti.

Secondary title:	Awareness among women about breast self-examination in the pomurje region
Secondary abstract:	Theoretical base: Breast cancer is the most widespread cancer and the numbers of this form of cancer increase with age. Women can easily detect this form of cancer with regular self-exams, recognition of changes in a normal breast and with getting to know the risk factors. Aim: The aim of this paper is to research the level of self-exam awareness of women in the Pomurje region in Slovenia. Research methodology: The research is based on quantitative methodology. The results were gathered with a questionnaire which contained 15 closed questions. Samples were taken from 100 randomly chosen women. Results: The results have shown that the women were aquatinted with the correct technique of breast self-examining. 86% of the women perform the breast self-exams in an upright position in front of a mirror but only 22% have said to do that regularly, once per month. 34% of the women learned the technique from their gynecologist and did 34% learn it from professional articles. Only 6% learned it from a medical nurse. Fact is though that the women participating in the survey were not informed about the risk factors which cause breast cancer well enough. Conclusion: Women should be aware of the fact that breast cancer is curable, if diagnosed in time. The most can be done by women themselves with regular breast self-exams and with the knowledge about the risk factors. The national programme of breast cancer testing is running successfully in Slovenia and invites women aged between 50 to 69 years to a mammogram check up every two years.
