The earthquake that occurred in Turkey on February 6, 2023 is considered the biggest disaster of the century, having a major impact on 10 provinces of Turkey. This study might provide the necessary data for healthcare services planning for disabled earthquake survivors according to their needs after the Malatya earthquake.
This mixed-patterned study was conducted in Malatya between February 17 and 20, 2023, with 30 disabled earthquake survivors. It was a mixed-methods study which involved both qualitative study using a semi-structured interview and quantitative analysis using both the Disability Status Analysis Questionnaire and the Exercise of Self-Care Agency Scale (ESCA).
The study determined four themes: "Accessibility to Assistive Devices," "Establishment of Special Facilities for Disabled Individuals after the Earthquake," "Suitability of Living Areas," and "Accessibility to Campgrounds and Tent Cities." The ESCA mean score of all disabled earthquake survivors was 87.47 ± 13.75 and those with multiple disabilities had lower ESCA scores ( < .05).
It was found that disabled earthquake survivors had difficulties in meeting their basic needs after the earthquake. It is considered vital to include disabled individuals and their families in disaster planning and to teach them about these plans.
2023年2月6日发生在土耳其的地震被认为是本世纪最大的灾难,对土耳其的10个省份产生了重大影响。本研究可能为马拉蒂亚地震后根据残疾地震幸存者的需求进行医疗服务规划提供必要数据。
本混合模式研究于2023年2月17日至20日在马拉蒂亚对30名残疾地震幸存者进行。这是一项混合方法研究,包括使用半结构化访谈的定性研究以及使用残疾状况分析问卷和自我护理能力量表(ESCA)的定量分析。
该研究确定了四个主题:“辅助设备的可及性”、“地震后为残疾人建立特殊设施”、“居住区域的适宜性”以及“露营地和帐篷城的可及性”。所有残疾地震幸存者的ESCA平均得分为87.47±13.75,多重残疾者的ESCA得分较低(<.05)。
发现残疾地震幸存者在地震后满足基本需求方面存在困难。将残疾人和他们的家庭纳入灾难规划并向他们传授这些计划被认为至关重要。
