Özet:

 Objective Coronary artery disease CAD ranks first in mortality and morbidity in the World. Physicians high level of knowledge, skills, and awareness on this subject is essential in the fight against this chronic disease. This study aimed to determine the knowledge and awareness levels of physician candidates about CAD and to contribute to the areas that need to be developed after the survey. Material and Method This cross-sectional and descriptive study was conducted on 600 students from the 4th and 5th grades of Suleyman Demirel University Faculty of Medicine between April 1, 2022, and May 1, 2022. The questionnaire that measured the level of knowledge and awareness about CAD was administered through social media communication networks or face-to-face. Results Of the 348 participants included in our study, 200 57.5 were women. The mean age of the participants was 23.141.1, their average weight was 68.6 10.7, and their average height was 169.73 12.7. Of the students who participated in the survey, 223 65 were fifth-grade students, and 125 35 were fourth-grade students. Of the students, 314 90 completed their cardiology internship. When we asked the participants to rate their level of knowledge about CAD between 1 and 5, 48.2 of the participants gave 3 points to their knowledge level. In addition, 74.7 n260 of the students who participated in the survey know that troponin I is the most specific marker in myocardial ischemia. 52.2 n182 marked smoking as the question of which lifestyle changes the most in the follow-up of CAD and gave the correct answer. When they surveyed the life-saving treatment in CAD, 24.4 n85 of the study population gave the correct answer by marking the stent implantation option. This response was followed by the fast-acting nitrate option with 36.2 n126. Conclusion As a result, increasing the knowledge and awareness of the faculty of medical students about CAD is important for the fight against CAD, and this study contributed to the determination of the missing points.

 Amaç Koroner arter hastalığı KAH dünyada mortalite ve morbiditede ilk sırada yer almaktadır. Hekimlerin bu konuda bilgi, beceri ve bilinç düzeyinin yüksek olması bu kronik hastalıkla mücadelede önem arz etmektedir. Bu çalışma ile hekim adaylarının KAH ile ilgili bilgi ve farkındalık düzeyini belirlemek ve anket sonrasında geliştirilmesi gereken alanlara katkı sağlanması amaçlandı. Gereç ve Yöntem Çalışma 1 Nisan 2022 ile 1 Mayıs 2022 tarihleri arasında Süleyman Demirel Üniversitesi Tıp Fakültesi 4. ve 5. Sınıf 600 öğrenciye sosyal medya haberleşme ağlarından yada yüzyüze ulaşılarak KAH ile ilgili bilgi ve bilinç düzeyini ölçen anket aracılığıyla tanımlayıcı ve kesitsel olarak yapıldı. Bulgular Çalışmamıza dahil edilen 348 katılımcının 200ü 57,5 kadındı. Katılımcıların yaş ortalaması 23,141,1 , kilo ortamalası 68,6 10,7 , boy ortalaması ise 169,73 12,7 olarak hesaplandı. Ankete katılan öğrencilerin 223ü 65 dönem 5 öğrencisi olup 125i 35 dönem 4 öğrencisidir. Toplam öğrencinin 314ü 90 kardiyoloji stajını tamamlamıştır. Katılımcıların KAH hakkında kendi bilgi düzeylerini 1 ile 5 arasında değerlendirmelerini istediğimizde; katılımcıların 48.2ü kendi bilgi düzeylerine 3 puan vermiştir. Ayrıca ankete katılan öğrencilerin 74,7si n260 miyokard iskemisinde en spesifik belirtecin troponin I olduğunu bilmektedir. KAHnın takibinde en olumlu etkiyi hangi yaşam tarzı değişikliği yapar sorusuna ise 52,2si n182 sigarayı bırakmak olarak işaretlemiş olup doğru cevabı vermişlerdir. Akut koroner sendromda hayat kurtarıcı tedavinin sorgulandığı anket sorusuna katılımcıların 24,4ü n85 stent implantasyonu seçeneğini işaretleyerek doğru cevabı vermiştir. Bu cevabı 36,2 n126 ile hızlı etkili nitrat seçeneği izlemiştir. Sonuç Sonuç olarak tıp fakültesi öğrencilerinin KAH ile bilgi ve bilincini artırmak KAH ile mücadele için önemli olup bu çalışma eksik olan noktaların belirlenmesine katkı sunmuştur.
