Article Educational Needs During COVID-19: MOOCs Experiences Among Global Family Physicians(Galenos Publishing House, 2024-10-11) Küçükerdem, Halime Seda; Gökdemir, Özden; Bakola, Maria; Bhattacharya, Sudip; Shariff, Mohammed IdrisAmaç: Aile hekimleri (AH) dünya genelinde hastalığın dolaylı etkilerini en aza indirmek için seferber olmuştur. AH’leri her zaman ön saflarda yer almakta, “ilk giren-son çıkan” olarak hareket etmektedir ve koronavirüs hastalığı-2019 (COVID-19) salgınının akut evresinde virüs kaynaklı hastalıkla mücadelede öncülük etmiştir. Birinci basamak sağlık merkezlerinde ve COVID-19 için özel olarak kurulmuş merkezlerde hastaları muayene etme, bilgilendirme ve izleme konusunda hayati bir rol oynadılar. Ancak hızla değişen COVID-19 konusundaki yetersiz bilgi nedeniyle, AH’leri bu yeni koronavirüs hakkında pratik ve teorik bilgilerini günlük olarak güncellemek zorunda kalmıştır. Kitlesel açık çevrimiçi dersler (KAÇD), çevrimiçi bir uygulama kullanarak dünya çapında erişim sağlayan kurslardır. Bu çalışmada, AH’lerinin COVID-19 ile ilgili eğitim ihtiyaçlarını KAÇD’ler aracılığıyla karşılama konusundaki görüş ve önerilerini belirlemeyi ve çözüm önerileri geliştirmeyi amaçladık. Yöntemler: Çalışma, KAÇD eğitimini tamamlamış ve anketi doldurmuş AH’lerle gerçekleştirilmek üzere planlanmıştır. Uluslararası katılım nedeniyle anket İngilizce olarak yapılmıştır. Etik onay, İzmir Ekonomi Üniversitesi Etik Kurulu’ndan alınmıştır. Katılım tamamen gönüllülük esasına dayanmaktadır. Bulgular: Çalışmamız, AH’lerin yaşı arttıkça hastaları tedavi etme konusundaki güvenlerinin de arttığını ortaya koymuştur. AH’ler, KAÇD’lere sürekli tıp eğitimi ve grup etkinliği olarak olumlu bir yaklaşım sergilemişlerdir (p<0,005). Çalışmanın nitel kısmında üç tema öne çıkmıştır: “i) birinci basamak sağlık hizmetlerindeki değişikliklere dair endişeler hakkında görüşler, ii) bilgi ihtiyacı ve bilgiye erişim konusundaki görüşler ve tutumlar, iii) KAÇD’ler hakkında tutumlar ve inançlar”. Sonuç: Bu kursun tamamlanmasıyla birlikte AH’ler, COVID-19 yönetimi konusunda bilgilerini genişletmişlerdir. Bu, onlara dünya genelinde yeni koronavirüsle enfekte olmuş sayısız hastanın hayatını kurtarma ve iyileştirme kapasitesi sağlamıştır. COVID-19 ile ilgili deneyimlerini paylaşmak, stresle başa çıkmanın bir yolu olabilir.Article Adolescent Health Knowledge of Family Physicians(2023-10-06) Aygün, Olgu; Küçükerdem, Halime Seda; Gökdemir, ÖzdenBackground: There are certain life periods when physicians are more cautious with their patients.

The importance of training well-educated and qualified healthcare professionals (HPs) has been reconsidered. The rapid spread of the epidemic revealed the limitations of traditional method education. Massive online courses (MOOCs) were offered as a solution to keep the information up-to-date and accessible.

Methods: In this descriptive cross-sectional multi-centered study, an online survey was applied to HPs between February-May 2021. There were 28 participating countries. Due to international participation, the survey was conducted in English. Results: There were 88 female and 87 male participants. Most of the participants were from Europe and Euroasia. Most of them reported their income as $501-$1500 US Dollars). The duration of job experience was between 5-15 years. 111 of them have completed a postdoctoral degree.
