EVALUATION OF WATER CONSUMPTION AND DEFECATION HABITS oF 6th CLASS STUDENTS oF A MEDICINE FACULTY (INTERNS)
Abstract
INTRODUCTION: There is
contradictory findings that support the increase of fluid intake, although it
is often recommended for the prevention of constipation. It is aimed to
evaluate the relationship between defecation habits and water consumption
of interns of a medicine faculty in this
study.
MATERIAL
and METHOD: The descriptive study was carried out with a web-based
questionnaire. Statistical analyzes were made with distribution measure for
continuous variables and chi-square test for categorical variables with SPSS
program.
RESULTS:
50.5%
of the participants were women and their average age was 23.4 years. 55.4% of
the participants paid attention to water consumption and 50.2% of them were
determined to consume more than two liters of water per day. According to the
Roman criteria, 31.1% of the participants were found to be constipated.
CONCLUSION: It was
found that there is no relationship between constipation and water consumption.
However, consuming of 49.8% of the participants less than 2 liters of water per
day is an important finding. Therefore training and arrangements should be made
to increase water consumption of the students in the faculty and hospital.

TIP FAKÜLTESİ 6. SINIF ÖĞRENCİLERİNİN (INTERNLER) SU TÜKETİM ve DEFEKASYON ALIŞKANLIKLARININ İNCELENMESİ
Abstract
GİRİŞ: Kabızlığın
önlenmesinde sıklıkla tavsiye edilmesine rağmen sıvı alımının artırılmasını
destekleyen çelişkili bulgular bulunmaktadır Bu çalışmada
tıp fakültesi son sınıf öğrencilerinin defekasyon alışkanlıkları ve su
tüketimleri arasındaki ilişkiyi değerlendirmek amaçlanmıştır.
GEREÇ ve YÖNTEM: Çalışma; tanımlayıcı tipte bir araştırma
olup veriler web tabanlı anket ile
toplanmıştır. SPSS programı kullanılarak sürekli değişkenler için dağılım
ölçütleri, kategorik değişkenler için ki-kare testi ile istatistiksel analizler
yapılmıştır.
BULGULAR: Katılımcıların %50,5’i
kadın, yaş ortalamaları 23,4 yıldır. Katılımcıların %55,4’ü
su tüketimlerine dikkat ettiklerini belirtirken %50,2’sinin günde 2 litreden
daha fazla su tükettikleri saptanmıştır. Roma kriterlerine göre
değerlendirildiğinde katılımcıların %31,1’inin kronik kabız olduğu
saptanmıştır.
SONUÇ: Kabızlık
ve su tüketimi arasındaki ilişkinin istatistiksel olarak anlamlı
olmadığı saptanmıştır. Ancak katılımcıların %49,8’inin günde 2 litreden az su
tüketmeleri önemli bir bulgudur. Bu nedenle öğrencilerin bulundukları
alanlarda su tüketimini artıracak eğitim ve
düzenlemeler yapılmalıdır.
