Öğe The awareness of physicians and allied health professionals about cardiopulmonary rehabilitation: A cross-sectional survey study [Kardiyopulmoner rehabilitasyon konusunda hekimler ve diger sagli{dotless}k çali{dotless}şanlari{dotless}ni{dotless}n farki{dotless}ndali{dotless}k düzeyi: Kesitsel bir anket çali{dotless}şmasi{dotless}](Turkish Society of Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation, 2014) Sarikaya S.; Sonel Tur B.; Kurtaiş Y.; Üzümcügil Karapolat H.; Soyupek F.; Hafiz M.; Sarp Ü.; Duyur Çakit B.; Demirsoy N.; Özyemişci Taşkiran Ö.; Dülgeroglu Erdogdu D.; Tomruk Sütbeyaz S.; Alemdaroglu E.; Ünsal Delialioglu S.; Dogan A.; Ordu Gökkaya N.K.; Köseoglu F.; Güzel R.; Ayhan F.F.; Tuncay F.; Geler Külcü D.; Ekşioglu E.Objective: Cardiopulmonary (CPR) programs were developed to improve and stabilize the physical, psychological, social, mental, professional, and economic conditions of patients with cardiovascular and pulmonary diseases. Although it is known that CPR reduces mortality and morbidity, it is not widely implemented as it is in Turkey. In this study, we aimed to determine the level of CPR awareness among physicians and allied health professionals. Material and Methods: This was a multi-center, cross-sectional survey study. The study included physicians, nurses, physiotherapists, and other allied health professionals who were informed about the survey and provided written consent to participate. Results: A total of 727 volunteers from 12 different centers were included in the study. Of the participants, 59.5% were physicians, 31.4% were nurses, 5.9% were physiotherapists, and 3.2% were other allied health professionals; 79.3% participants answered the question on if they have had any idea about CPR. Participants indicated that patients should be referred to cardiac pulmonary rehabilitation after a coronary artery bypass (83.8%), chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (83.2%), and cardiac valve surgery (38.9%). Only 40.1% of the survey participants provided information about CPR to patients, while 20.5% did not provide any information about CPR. Conclusion: This survey study determined that in centers where CPR could be implemented, health professionals have knowledge about CPR. If the study were conducted nationwide, the level of awareness might be even lower. Although it is an idea of CPR, the level of knowledge for this issue is not adequate. As the number of the CPR centers will increase, the knowledge of doctors and allied health professionals will advance. © 2014 by Turkish Society of Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation.Öğe What do patients really know about cardiopulmonary rehabilitation: A cross-sectional survey study(2012) Karapolat H.U.; Kurtaiç Y.; Tur B.S.; Demirsoy N.; Özyemişci Taşkiran Ö.; Sarp Ü.; Hafiz M.; Külcü D.G.; Sarikaya S.; Soyupek F.; Sütbeyaz S.T.; Delialioglu S.Ü.; Alemdaroglu E.; Ordu Gökkaya N.K.; Dogan A.; Köseoglu F.; Ekşioglu E.; Duyur Çakit B.; Dülgeroglu Erdogdu D.; Tuncay F.; Figen Ayhan F.; Güzel R.Background. Although it is known that cardiopulmonary rehabilitation (CPR) reduces mortality and morbidity, it is not widely implemented as is in Turkey. One factor might be lack of demand since the levels of knowledge and awareness among patients who are eligible for CPR seem to be insufficient. Aim. It is aimed to investigate the level of awareness and knowledge of CPR among patients with cardiopulmonary problems. Design. Cross-sectional survey study Setting. Outpatient Methods. Knowledge regarding CPR was assessed by questionnaires given to 690 patients recruited in seven university hospitals and six training and research hospitals in which either comprehensive or limited CPR services are available. Population. Patients who have cardiopulmonary problems Results. Of the patients, 34.7% were given information on CPR by healthcare staff, and 25.3% reported that their source of information was physicians. Although 49-9% of the patients knew that they needed to exercise for their cardiac/pulmonary problems, only 23.4% and 32.1% of those were aware that fast walking and climbing stairs, respectively, would not pose a risk to their cardiac/pulmonary health. The majority of the patients believed that activities of daily living, which comprise the most important component of exercise-based CPR, were harmful for their cardiopulmonary health. We found that 31.1% of the patients exercised regularly. During their stay at the hospital, certain kinds of exercises were suggested to 62.7% of the patients, and 34.7% of these patients performed various exercises. Of the patients who were given detailed information on cardiopulmonary rehabilitation, 69% stated that they would be willing to participate in a similar program. Conclusion. Although nearly half of the patients stated that they needed CR, it was observed that the ratio of patients who had true knowledge of CPR was low among patients. It is imperative to furnish patients with information on CPR, both in the field of PMR and throughout Turkey, and to put more effort into running those services effectively. Furthermore, we should make an effort to increase the level of liaison between patients and physicians and other healthcare professionals who participate in the treatment of cardiac/pulmonary patients.
