Özet:

 According to the Global Cancer Statistics 2018 Report, prostate cancer is the 2nd most common type of cancer among men in the world. One of the important factors affecting participation in examinations for early diagnosis of this disease, which can be cured with early diagnosis and effective treatment, is the level of knowledge of individuals about prostate cancer. Self-esteem level has an important place among the factors thought to be related to the level of knowledge about prostate cancer. The study is a cross-sectional study conducted in men aged 40-70 years who applied to Eskişehir Osmangazi University Health Practice and Research Hospital between 01.09.2023- 31.10.2023. The study group consisted of 495 patients. Prostate Cancer Screening Information Scale was used to evaluate the level of prostate cancer knowledge and Rosenberg Self-Esteem Scale RBSÖ was used to determine the level of self-esteem. Mann-Whitney U test, Kruskal-Wallis test and Spearman Correlation analysis were used for analyses. A significance value of p0.05 was accepted. The ages of the patients ranged between 40-70 years with a mean of 53.9  8.5 years. The scores obtained from the Prostate Cancer Screening Information Scale ranged between 3 and 11, with a mean score of 6.6  1.8 median: 7.0. It was found that the scores obtained from the scale were higher in those who were in the age group of 60 and over, who had previously had a prostate examination, who had previously had information about prostate cancer, who had previously heard about the PSA test, and who had previously been examined for prostate cancer. It was found that there was no relationship between the scores obtained from the Prostate Cancer Screening Information Scale and the scores obtained from the Self-esteem Scale r0.073; p0.106. It can be said that the patients knowledge about prostate cancer is at a moderate level. No correlation was found between the level of prostate cancer knowledge and the level of self-esteem. It may be useful to carry out informative studies to increase the level of prostate cancer knowledge.

 Prostat kanseri, Global Kanser İstatistikleri 2018 Raporuna göre dünyada erkekler arasında en sık görülen 2. kanser türüdür. Erken teşhis ve etkili tedavi ile iyileşme sağlanabilen bu hastalığın erken tanısı için yapılan muayenelere katılımı etkileyen önemli faktörlerden biri bireylerin prostat kanseri hakkındaki bilgi düzeyleridir. Prostat kanseri hakkında bilgi düzeyi ile ilişkili olduğu düşünülen faktörler arasında benlik saygısı düzeyinin önemli bir yeri vardır. Çalışma, 01.09.2023 31.10.2023 tarihleri arasında Eskişehir Osmangazi Üniversitesi Sağlık Uygulama ve Araştırma Hastanesine başvuran 40-70 yaş grubu erkeklerde yapılan kesitsel tipte bir araştırmadır. Çalışma grubu 495 hastadan oluşmuştur. Prostat kanseri bilgi düzeyinin değerlendirilmesinde Prostat Kanseri Taramaları Bilgi Ölçeği, benlik saygısı düzeyinin belirlenmesinde ise Rosenberg Benlik Saygısı Ölçeği RBSÖ kullanılmıştır. Analizler için Mann-Whitney U testi, Kruskal Wallis testi ve Kolmogrov-Smirnov analizi kullanıldı. Anlamlılık değeri olarak p0.05 kabul edildi. Hastaların yaşları 40-70 arasında değişmekte olup, ortalama 53,9  8,5 yıl idi. Prostat Kanseri Taramaları Bilgi Ölçeğinden alınan puanlar 3- 11 arasında değişmekte olup, ortalama 6,6  1,8 ortanca: 7,0 puandır. Ölçekten alınan puanların 60 ve üzeri yaş grubunda olanlarda, daha önce prostat muayenesi yaptıranlarda, önceden prostat kanseri hakkında bilgi sahibi olanlarda, daha önce PSA testini duyanlarda, önceden prostat kanseri ile ilgili muayene olanlarda daha yüksek olduğu saptanmıştır. Prostat Kanseri Taramaları Bilgi Ölçeğinden alınan puanlar ile RBSÖnden alınan puanlar arasında bir ilişki olmadığı saptanmıştır r0.073; p0.106. Hastaların prostat kanseri hakkındaki bilgilerinin orta düzeyde olduğu söylenebilir. Prostat kanseri bilgi düzeylerinin arttırılması için bilgilendirme çalışmalarının yapılması faydalı olabilir.
