Opis:
ObjectivesThis study aimed to explore the self-care strategies undertaken by Polish nurses, and more specifically: to assess the participants’ self-care strategies; to check self-medication patterns in the study group; and to analyze compliance with medical recommendations regarding pharmacotherapy.Material and MethodsA quantitative and cross-sectional survey was conducted to examine the phenomenon of interest. The study employed a questionnaire survey with an independently designed questionnaire as a research tool. A total of 446 registered nurses taking part in different professional training courses for nurses in January–June 2018 who agreed to participate were included in the study.ResultsThe findings of this study reveal generally poor self-care strategies and compliance with medical recommendations among Polish nurses. The most frequent health behaviors among the surveyed nurses were caring for personal hygiene and a healthy diet. About 31% of the nurses confirmed supplements use. The most common reasons for taking supplements concerned the prevention of vitamin and mineral deficiencies (77.5%), and boosting of the immune system (49.3%). The most popular supplements included packs of vitamins (57.2%), single vitamin D3 (33.3%) and magnesium (31.2%). The vast majority of participants (79.8%) took some kind of over-the-counter drugs (OTCs) in the last 6 months, most often painkillers and flu medications, relying most frequently on the information included on the drug leaflets. The analysis showed a statistically significant relationship between declared OTC use and age, marital status, years of professional experience and economic status. Overall, 26.9% of the study participants declared the use of both supplements and OTCs, while 16.4% of the participants used neither supplements nor OTCs.ConclusionsSelf-care strategies undertaken by nurses should be seen as an essential factor in their positive therapeutic relationship with patients. The ageing nursing workforce should make all of us increasingly aware that their self-care needs will increase as well.

Objectives The level of dental awareness of a pregnant woman affects the sanitary condition of her own teeth and the health of the child to be born. Poor oral health is considered to be a probable risk factor for the pre-term birth or low birth weight. The aim of this work was to assess the level of oral health knowledge that determines oral health condition of pregnant women in Poland. Material and Methods Empirical data were obtained from the National Monitoring of Oral Health and Its Determinants, financed by the Ministry of Health. This socio-epidemiological study assessed oral health status and dental health awareness, which affects that status. Study subjects included 1380 pregnant women at the age ranging from 15 to 44, randomly-selected from urban and rural environments. Dental health status was recorded in the clinical examination sheets supplied by the World Health Organization, and the socio-medical data were recorded in the questionnaire interview sheets. Results Almost 3/4 of the pregnant women evaluated their dental health as unsatisfactory or poor. Over 60% of the pregnant women rated their knowledge and practical skills concerning care of their own teeth and of the child to be born as limited, inadequate or none. Only 40% of the pregnant women provided right answers to the questions about dental issues. Conclusions Low oral health awareness results in poor oral health status of the study subjects. A statistical pregnant woman has a total of 13 teeth showing the symptoms of tooth decay or caries. Over 70% of the pregnant women developed gingivitis or periodontitis. There is an urgent need in Poland to make the European principle of treating pregnant women as a dentally vulnerable group obligatory.

Opis:
BackgroundWhen assessing physical activity (PA), particular attention should be paid to medical university students who are taught to be health care professionals (HCPs) responsible for maintaining health in humans. However, different studies have shown that HCPs exhibit the same unhealthy behaviors as the general population. This study analyzed PA among medical university students of different faculties and their adherence to current PA recommendations.Material and MethodsData from 216 medical university students of physiotherapy, dietetics and pharmacy, including males (N = 44) and females (N = 172), the mean age of 22.3±1.8 years, were collected. The International Physical Activity Questionnaire in its long form (IPAQ-LF) was used to assess and classify PA behaviors. The results were analyzed in accordance with World Health Organization recommendations regarding PA.ResultsOver 60% of all the students were classified as active during all-day activity. However, while analyzing PA in different domains, the same shares of all the students were still insufficiently active during leisure time, and so they did not meet the recommendation of >75 min/week of vigorous PA, >150 min/week of moderate PA or an equivalent combination. All the students self-reported PA mainly in the work and transport domains. Generally, physiotherapy students were the most active and performed PA with higher intensity.ConclusionsThis study revealed a low level of leisure time PA among the students, and no habit of regular PA. Some changes in medical education should be suggested to include physical education as a long-term subject in medical school curricula. Future research is needed to investigate the exercise barriers that students perceive, which can guide future interventions aimed at improving their PA, and thereby impact on the quality of health care which they will provide.

Opis:
Background: Self-rated health relates to the use of medical help and, as a consequence, determines sick leave in the population of employees. The aim of the study was to analyze the relationship between socioeconomic variables, selected forms of positive health behaviour and subjective evaluation of health in employees. Material and Methods: Five hundred and 99 subjects were included in the study – 331 females and 268 males, aged 18–67, working in the area of the Świętokrzyskie province. The authors’ survey questionnaire on the selected elements of the state of health and positive health behavior in life style has been used in the study. Anthropometric measures were carried out. A Chi² test for independence was used in the statistical analysis. In order to evaluate the effect of the selected factors on the self-rated health of the studied subjects the researchers have applied single- and multiple-factor logistic regression. Results: In the multiple-factor logistic regression the features contributing to good or excellent self-rated health were the following: age up to 39 (odds ratio – OR = 4.17; 95% confidence interval – CI: 1.72–10.10; p < 0.002), higher education (OR = 3.01; 95% CI: 1.04–8.70; p < 0.05) and care for health (OR = 4.77; 95% CI: 2.81–8.09; p < 0.001). Conclusions: Working people with higher education are characterized by a better control over their own health and, consequently, by a better perception of it. Monitoring self-rated health in a working population is an invaluable indicator in the evaluation of health in employees and the need for medical care. Med Pr 2015;66(1):17–28
Wstęp: Samoocena stanu zdrowia stosowana jest w ochronie zdrowia i w konsekwencji wpływa na absencję chorobową populacji pracującej. Celem badania była ocena zależności między zmiennymi społeczno-ekonomicznymi, wybranymi formami zachowań prozdrowotnych a subiektywną oceną stanu zdrowia osób pracujących. Materiał i metody: Badaniem objęto 599 osób – 331 kobiet (55,3%) i 268 mężczyzn (44,7%) w wieku 18–67 lat, pracujących na terenie województwa świętokrzyskiego. Narzędziem badania był kwestionariusz zawierający pytania dotyczące stanu zdrowia i zachowań zdrowotnych w zakresie stylu życia. Przeprowadzono pomiary antropometryczne. W analizie statystycznej wykorzystano test niezależności Chi². W celu oceny wpływu wybranych cech na samoocenę stanu zdrowia badanych zastosowano analizę regresji logistycznej jedno- i wieloczynnikowej. Wyniki: W wieloczynnikowej analizie regresji logistycznej cechami istotnie zwiększającymi szansę bardzo dobrej lub dobrej samooceny stanu zdrowia okazały się: wiek do 39 lat (iloraz szans (odds ratio – OR) = 4,17; 95% przedział ufności (confidence interval – CI): 1,72–10,10; p < 0,002), wykształcenie wyższe (OR = 3,01; 95% CI: 1,04–8,70; p < 0,05) i dbałość o zdrowie (OR = 4,77; 95% CI: 2,81–8,09; p < 0,001). Wnioski: Pracujące osoby z wykształceniem wyższym mają lepszą kontrolę nad własnym zdrowiem i w konsekwencji lepszą jego percepcję. Konieczne jest monitorowanie samooceny stanu zdrowia pracujących jako istotnego wskaźnika oceny stanu zdrowia pracowników i zapotrzebowania na opiekę medyczną. Med. Pr. 2015;66(1):17–28
