Physicians’ Ethical Dilemmas in the Context of Anti-Doping Practices
(JSciMed Central, 2016) Ekmekci, Perihan Elif
The World Anti-Doping Code states that, there is an intrinsic value about sports that is the celebration of the human spirit, body and mind, and is reflected in values other than winning or being the first in any sports game. The spirit of sports includes ethics, fair play and honesty. Anti-doping practices are based on this ethical ground and supported all through the world. However, recently with the arguments that there is no substantial definition of the term “spirit of sports”, and that the fights against doping is based on questionable ethical grounds consisting of dubious claims about fairness in sports and terms such as “level playing field”. Medical ethics is involved in this discussion because of the crucial role of physicians in anti-doping policies and practices as well as developing and administering ergogenic substances or methods for athletes. This role of physicians raises ethical questions regarding physician-patient relationship, principle of non-male ficence, privacy and confidentiality of patient, and fairness and justice in the macro allocation of resources. The aim of this paper is to discuss ethical arguments on anti-doping practices and policies and, to further evaluate current anti-doping practices in the context of medical ethics.

Healthcare Professionals' Pharmacovigilance Knowledge and Adverse Drug Reaction Reporting Behavior and Factors Determining the Reporting Rates
(TAYLOR & FRANCIS INC, 2019) Güner, Müberra Devrim; Ekmekci, Perihan Elif
Background: Spontaneous adverse drug reaction (ADR) reports prepared by healthcare professionals (HCPs) are the backbone of collecting post-marketing safety data. However, underreporting is a global problem creating health, economic, and ethical burden. Objectives: To determine the factors limiting ADR reporting rates from the HCPs' point of view. Methods: A questionnaire containing 43 questions evaluating sociodemographic characteristics, pharmacovigilance knowledge and activities, and prescription behaviors was prepared on "surveymonkey.com." The link was distributed mainly by professional organizations. Results: Although this survey aimed to reach all HCPs, most of the respondents were physicians and nurses. Of the 259 (69.6%) participants who encountered ADR at least once, only 105 (40.5%) reported ADR. The term "pharmacovigilance" was heard for the first time in this survey by 35.5% (n = 132) of the participants. Only 34.7% (n = 129) of the participants knew where to find the ADR reporting form, and 25.5% (n = 95) had previously filled the form and/or read it. Only 28.5% (n = 106) of the participants were aware of the ADR reporting and monitoring system of their institutions and related professionals. Almost all the participants agreed that pharmacovigilance and ADR reporting training are necessary. Conclusion: The main reason for underreporting is limited pharmacovigilance knowledge of HCPs. Training activities based on the needs and preferences of HCPs and close follow-up by authorities are the main steps to improve pharmacovigilance activities.

Health Literacy Level of Casting Factory Workers and Its Relationship With Occupational Health and Safety Training
(SAGE PUBLICATIONS INC, 2019) Güner, Müberra Devrim; Ekmekci, Perihan Elif
Health literacy (HL) is a stronger predictor of an individual's health status than income, employment status, education level, and race or ethnicity. Lower levels of HL may contribute to low uptake or less adherence to occupational health and safety (OHS) training. This study was conducted among casting factory workers who received OHS training routinely. Data on sociodemographic characteristics, OHS training, and scores of the Health Literacy Survey-European Union (HLS-EU) were collected. Of the 282 of the 600 (47%) workers surveyed, 13.5% had inadequate, 47.5% problematic, 30.9% sufficient, and 8.2% excellent HL scores. There were no statistically significant differences between workers with limited and proficient HL with respect to age group or educational level. Workers with limited HL were less satisfied with OHS training content and were less likely to identify one-on-one health and safety training sessions as training. Limited HL is a universal problem both in the general and working populations, and it may be restricting the workers understanding of OHS training. Occupational health nurses should be aware of the detrimental effects of limited HL and modify their OHS training where needed for purposes of increasing the successful adoption of safe work practices.
Incentives To Increase Pharmacovigilance Practices From an Educational and Ethical Point of View
(Juniper Publishers Inc., 2017) Güner, Müberra Devrim; Ekmekci, Perihan Elif
An adverse drug reaction (ADR) is a burden both to healthcare system and has economic, medical and ethical dimensions. ADR reporting is a responsibility of all healthcare professionals and is essential for the effectiveness of Pharmacovigilance system. ADR reporting in Turkey is still below the average of similar income countries. The main reason for low reporting rates can be lack/insufficiency of reporting culture and limited awareness about the importance of reporting. This can be improved by incorporating pharmacovigilance practices and ADR reporting procedures education and training to both undergraduate and continuous education of healthcare professionals.
Is Medical Schools, Curricula Content of Pharmacovigilance and Rational Pharmacotherapy- Related Subjects Sufficient for Future Physicians?
(2019) Güner, Müberra Devrim; Ekmekci, Perihan Elif
Underreporting of adverse drug reactions (ADRs) is a global problem and the main reasons for not reporting ADRs are either failure to recognize an ADR or failure to report the recognized ADR, which can be prevented by efficient education and training. Thus, the content on pharmacovigilance and related subjects in the curricula of the medical schools was evaluated. The web pages of the 63 Turkish medical schools that provided online curricula were evaluated for the following subjects: pharmacovigilance, toxicology, rational pharmacotherapy, drug use in special populations, good prescription writing principles, and clinical pharmacology stage. The number of hours dedicated to these subjects and the year of the course during which these subjects were taught were recorded. Of the 63 medical schools, 41 (65.1%) provide pharmacovigilance course and 33 (52.4%) rational pharmacotherapy course for 0.5-2 hours, mostly during the 3rd year of education. Thirty of the medical schools (47.6%) had clinical pharmacology and rational pharmacotherapy stage covering personal-drug selection, and clinical pharmacology of organ-systems was mostly a five-day course during the 4th or 5th years of education. The time allocated for pharmacovigilance and related subjects in the curricula of medical schools is not sufficient for the students to acquire satisfactory knowledge on ADR and to influence their attitudes as physicians in the future. In order to improve this, more time and effort must be allocated by medical schools to pharmacovigilance and rational pharmacotherapy education, particularly during the later years of medical education.

Evaluation of the Informed Consent Procedure for Total Knee Arthroplasty Patients in Turkey
(Turkish Association of Orthopaedics and Traumatology, 2016-08) Ekmekci, Perihan Elif; Ekmekci, Alp Burak; Karakaş¸ Özgür; Kulduk, Ahmet; Arda, Berna
Objective: The purpose of this research is to evaluate the ethical aspects of informed consent process of total knee arthroplasty (TKA) patients in Turkey. Methods: The study included 50 patients undergoing TKA in Gazi Mustafa Kemal State Hospital Orthopedics Clinic. A face to face survey was conducted to determine the ethical appropriateness of the main components of informed consent process such as; disclosure of material information about the disease and alternative treatment options, understanding the disclosed information, comprehending the written consent form and voluntariness in deciding. Results: The survey revealed that all TKA patients signed informed consent form, 80% of the participants received material information about their disease, 62% were disclosed information about TKA operation, 56% read (in personal or with the assistance of a relative) the written informed consent form, 28% received information regarding possible complications of TKA and 85% were not given any information about the alternative treatments. Conclusions: Informed consent process in TKA patients have flourished compared to previous years, but still there are some aspects in need of improvement. Using short and understandable language, developing multi-media sources and involving patients to informed consent form development process would contribute to the process.
