Abstract:Teoretična izhodišča: Rak dojk je ena najpogostejših oblik raka pri ženskah in predstavlja pomemben javnozdravstveni problem. Uspešnost zdravljenja je v veliki meri odvisna od zgodnjega odkrivanja bolezni, pri čemer pomembno vlogo igra preventiva, ki vključuje zdrav življenjski slog, samopregledovanje dojk ter vključevanje v presejalni program DORA. Zdravstvena vzgoja je ključna pri oblikovanju ustreznih preventivnih vedenj, zdravstveni delavci pa imajo pomembno vlogo pri ozaveščanju splošne populacije o znakih bolezni, dejavnikih tveganja in pomenu zgodnjega iskanja pomoči. Namen raziskave je raziskati pomen zdravstvene vzgoje za ozaveščenost splošne populacije o raku na dojkah. Metoda: Raziskava je temeljila na kvantitativnem raziskovalnem pristopu in deskriptivni metodi dela. Podatki so bili zbrani s spletno anonimno anketo, v kateri je sodelovalo 112 anketirancev, starih 18 ali več let. Vprašalnik je vseboval socio-demografski sklop (spol, starost in izobrazba), štiri Likertove lestvice o pomenu samopregledovanja, preventivnih ukrepih in virih informacij ter eno odprto vprašanje. Podatki so bili statistično obdelani ter prikazani v grafih in tabelah. Rezultati: Anketiranci samopregledovanje dojk prepoznavajo kot zelo pomemben del preventive in zgodnjega odkrivanja raka dojk. Večina anketiranih razume, da je samopregledovanje pomembno za oba spola, in zna pravilno opredeliti priporočeno pogostost njegovega izvajanja. Anketiranci kot najpogostejši vir informacij navajajo zdravstvene domove, centre za krepitev zdravja in medije, manj pogosto pa Onkološki inštitut. Velika večina prepoznava ključne opozorilne znake bolezni, kot so neboleča zatrdlina, krvav izcedek iz bradavice in spremembe videza dojke. Program DORA je ocenjen kot zelo pomemben presejalni program, del anketirancev pa se je presejanja že udeležil. Razprava: Rezultati kažejo, da je ozaveščenost o raku dojk med anketiranci razmeroma dobra, vendar obstajajo področja, kjer so potrebne dodatne zdravstvenovzgojne aktivnosti, zlasti na področju pravilnega razumevanja pogostosti samopregledovanja in večje prepoznavnosti strokovnih virov informacij. Pomembna je tudi destigmatizacija raka dojk pri moških in širjenje informacij o njihovem tveganju za bolezen.

Title:The Importance of Health Education for Awareness of the General Population About Breast Cancer
Abstract:Background: Breast cancer is one of the most common cancers among women and represents a major public health challenge. The success of treatment largely depends on early detection, in which preventive activities such as a healthy lifestyle, regular breast self-examination, and participation in the national screening programme DORA play a key role. Health education is essential for promoting preventive behaviour and raising awareness of risk factors, warning signs, and the importance of seeking timely medical help. The aim of the study was to explore the importance of health education for the general population regarding breast cancer. Method: The research was based on a quantitative approach and a descriptive method. Data were collected using an anonymous online questionnaire completed by 112 respondents aged 18 years and over. The questionnaire included a socio-demographic section (gender, age, education), four Likert-scale statements on the importance of breast self-examination, preventive measures and sources of information, as well as one open-ended question. The data were statistically processed and presented in tables and graphs. Results: Respondents perceive breast self-examination as a very important element of prevention and early detection of breast cancer. Most respondents are aware that self-examination is important for both women and men and correctly identify the recommended frequency of performing it. The most frequently reported sources of information are health centres, health-promotion centres and the media, while the Oncology Institute is recognised less often as an information source. The majority of respondents recognise key warning signs of breast cancer, such as a painless lump, bloody nipple discharge and visible changes in the breast. The DORA screening programme is assessed as highly important, and part of the sample has already participated in mammography screening. Discussion: The results indicate that awareness of breast cancer among the respondents is relatively good, although certain areas still require additional health-education efforts, particularly regarding the correct understanding of self-examination frequency and the visibility of expert information sources. Furthermore, reducing stigma related to breast cancer in men and increasing awareness of their risk remains important.
