    A critical analysis of low molecular weight heparin use during pregnancy in a tertiary referral centre
    (Taylor & Francis, 2014) Kutuk, M. S.; Ozgun, M. T.; Uludag, S.; Dolanbay, M.; Tas, M.; Terzioğlu, Ayşecan; Faculty Member; School of Nursing; 177870
    The aim of this study was to analyse low molecular weight heparin (LMWH) use during pregnancy in terms of patient evaluation, treatment indication and social and financial costs. This was a retrospective analysis of patients using LMWH in their pregnancies. A total of 147 women were included in the study. The most common indications were thrombophilia (55/147, 37.4%); recurrent pregnancy loss (RPL); (47/147, 32.0%) and previous single pregnancy loss (18/147, 12.2%). In the RPL group, 53.1% of patients were not evaluated with standard tests; 31.9% of women were incompletely evaluated and 15% were properly evaluated. Out of 104 women screened for thrombophilia, 32 (32/104, 30.8%) were tested during pregnancy. Despite published guidelines and increasing scientific evidence against their use in some indications, LMWHs are prescribed widely during pregnancy for a variety of indications. Public and healthcare providers' education to change this attitude should be implemented.

    The making of neoliberal Turkey: an introduction
    (Ashgate Publishing, 2016) Erol, Maral; Özbay, Cenk; Turem, Z. Umut; Terzioğlu, Ayşecan; Faculty Member; School of Nursing; 177870
    Exploring the divergent aspects of the rule of neoliberalism in Turkey since 1980s, each chapter in this book highlights a specific dimension of this socio-economic process and together, these essays construct a thorough examination of the whirlwind of changes recently experienced by Turkish society. With particular focus on the new ways in which social power operates, expert contributors explore new discourses and subjectivities around environmentalism, health, popular culture, economic policies, feminism and motherhood, urban space and minorities, class and masculinities. By questioning the primary influence of the state in these micro-political matters, they engage with concepts of neoliberalism and governmentality to provide a fresh, grounded and analytical perspective on the routes through which social power navigates the society. This sustained examination of the new axes of power and subjectivity, with a particular eye on the formation of new political spaces of governance and resistance, deepens the analysis of Turkey’s experiment with neoliberal globalization.

    Hep bu Suriyelilerin yüzünden : İstanbul'daki sağlık çalışanlarının gözünden Suriyeli çocukların sağlığı
    (İletişim Yayınları, 2015) Terzioğlu, Ayşecan; Faculty Member; School of Nursing; 177870
    Bu makale 2011 yılından bu yana, hukuki mülteci statüsü yerine "sığınmacı" ve "misafir" statüleriyle Türkiye'de yaşayan Suriyelilerin sağlık koşullarını ve sağlık hizmetlerinden yararlanırken yaşadıkları sorunları Türkiye'deki sağlık eşitsizlikleriyle ilişkilendirmeyi amaçlıyor. Özellikle, İstanbul'daki Suriyelilerde anne ve çocuk sağlığı konularını onları sıklıkla tedavi eden doktor ve hemşirelerin bakış açısından inceleyen bu makalede sağlık çalışanlarının Suriyeliler konusundaki ayırımcı ve ötekileştirici söylemleri inceleniyor. Bu konuda sağlık çalışanlarının arasında çalıştıkları yer ve cinsiyete göre bazı farklılıklar olsa da, onların mesleki deneyimlerinin içinde Suriyelilerin sağlığı genel olarak bir "yük" ve "külfet" olarak görülüyor ve bu şekilde dile getiriliyor. Bu bakış açısı, 1980'lerden itibaren meydana gelen tıp alanında ve toplumda sağlık kavramının ve politikalarının kökten değişimi çerçevesinde ele alınarak, İstanbul'da yaşayan Suriyelilerin sağlığı konusunda daha kapsayıcı bir "temel bir insan hakkı olarak sağlık" anlayışının nasıl inşa edilebileceği konusunda ipuçları vermek amaçlanıyor.

    Rethinking globalization and health: medical tourism in Turkey
    (Presses Universitaires de France (PUF), 2014) Terzioğlu, Ayşecan; Faculty Member; School of Nursing; 177870
    The article explores medical tourism in Turkey, which points out the problems in the globalization in the Turkish health sector. Turkey is becoming one of the most prominent centers for medical tourism with its luxurious private hospitals. However, this development focuses on the economic and technological infrastructure rather than the socio-cultural aspects of medicine. Based on a media survey, observations in the private hospitals, and interviews with doctors, nurses, supervisors and policymakers, the article will focus on the problematic aspects of medical tourism in Turkey.

    Conceptions of quality of life, body and gender among Turkish breast cancer patients
    (Imprensa da Universidade de Coimbra, 2012) Terzioğlu, Ayşecan; Faculty Member; School of Nursing
    In accord with the increasing cancer rates, cancer became a highly visible illness, and cancer patients' associations became more active and popular in Turkey. Many of those associations emphasize the concept of ""quality of life,"" and aim at inculcating a holistic and individualistic approach on health. That concept stresses the psychological and social factors, which affect the patients' illness experience, and aims at empowering the patients by suggesting ways to improve their lives. However, the discourse on quality of life, which is shaped by the medical scientists, health care providers and cancer patients' associations, often overlooks the patients' socio-economic status and environmental factors, which affect their illness. Therefore, the concept of quality of life, which recently became popular, has different meanings for different cancer patients, depending on their demographic and socioeconomic background. For the breast cancer patients with a disadvantaged background, having cancer and a good quality of life creates an oxymoron, whereas the ones with a higher socio-economic status define having a good quality of life as an attainable goal for them. In this work, I will explore how the Turkish women with breast cancer define quality of life, and relate their conceptions of body, gender and health with that concept. My research took place in three different hospitals in Istanbul in order to canvass a broad range of cancer patients in terms of their demographic and socioeconomic status. It includes semi-structured interviews with female breast cancer patients on their illness experience and conceptions of quality of life.
