Özet
Çalışmamızda Edirne il merkezindeki 13 Aile Sağlığı Merkezine kayıtlı 65 yaş ve üzeri bireylerin, istismar riskinin belirlenmesi ve sosyodemografik faktörler, bilişsel durum, depresyon, temel ve enstrümantal günlük yaşam aktiviteleri ile istismar riski arasındaki ilişkinin araştırılması amaçlanmıştır.Çalışmanın örneklemini Edirne il merkezindeki 13 Aile Sağlığı Merkezine kayıtlı 65 yaş ve üzeri 186 birey oluşturmaktadır. Veriler 81 sorudan oluşan anket yardımıyla toplanmıştır. Katılımcıların sosyodemografik faktörlerini sorgulayan 34 soru bulunmaktadır. Ek olarak her katılımcıya Standardize Mini Mental Test, 15 soru içeren Geriatrik Depresyon Ölçeği Kısa Form, 14 soru içeren Hwalek-Sengstock Yaşlı İstismarı Tarama Testi, 10 parametreden oluşan Barthel Günlük Yaşam Aktiviteleri İndeksi, 8 parametreden oluşan Lawton-Brody Enstrümantal Günlük Yaşam Aktiviteleri Ölçeği uygulanmıştır.Katılımcılar 103 kadın (%48,8) ve 108 erkekten (%51,2) oluşmaktadır. Katılımcıların yaş ortalaması 71,96 olarak bulundu. Katılımcıların Hwalek-Sengstock Yaşlı İstismarı Tarama Testi puanları ortalaması 1,3 olarak hesaplandı. 32 kişinin (%15,2) tarama testinden 3 ve üzerinde puan alarak istismar riskinin olduğu saptandı. Geriatrik Depresyon Ölçeği'nden alınan ortalama puan 4,14 olarak hesaplandı. Katılımcılardan 138 kişide (%65,4) depresyon saptanmazken, 48 kişi (%22,7) hafif depresyon, 17 kişi (%8,1) orta düzey depresyon, 8 kişi (%3,8) şiddetli depresyon olarak sınıflandırıldı. Katılımcıların bilişsel durumları değerlendirildiğinde 163 kişide (%77,3) bilişsel bozukluk olmadığı, 45 kişide (%21,3) hafif demans 3 kişide (%1,4) ciddi demans olabileceği düşünüldü. Katılımcıların Barthel Günlük Yaşam Aktiviteleri puan ortalaması 97,75 olarak saptandı. Katılımcılardan 165 kişi (%78,2) tam bağımsız, 24 kişi (%11,4) hafif derecede bağımlı, 21 kişi (%10) orta derecede bağımlı, 1 kişi (%0,5) ileri derecede bağımlı olarak değerlendirilmiştir. Katılımcıların Enstrümantal Günlük Yaşam Aktiviteleri Ölçeği puan ortalaması 7,1 olarak hesaplandı. Yaşlı bireylerde istismar riskini etkileyen faktörlerin değerlendirildiği çalışmamızda istismarın yaş, cinsiyet, medeni durum, çocuk sayısı, çalışma durumu, kendine ait gelir varlığı ve miktarı, eğitim düzeyi, yaşanılan evin kime ait olduğu, kronik hastalık ve ilaç kullanımı, aile ve sosyal çevre ile görüşme sıklığı ve günlük yaşam aktivitelerindeki bağımsızlık düzeyi ile ilişkili olmadığı belirlendi. Sosyal güvencesi olmayanlarda, tek başına yaşayanlarda, aile içinde geçimsizliği, fiziksel ve duygusal şiddet öyküsü, aile ilişkileri kötü, yaşanılan evin koşulları yetersiz olanlarda istismar riski daha yüksek saptandı. Ayrıca depresyon şiddeti ile istismar riski arasında pozitif korelasyon, mini mental testten alınan puan ile istismar riski arasında negatif korelasyon olduğu görülmektedir.
