520 | |a This study evaluates the knowledge levels and opinions of Islamic primary healthcare workers regarding the medical indications of circumcision, its mode of application, contraindications, and possible complications together with the current literature. Our study was conducted with the participation of 400 healthcare personnel having Islamic faith and working in primary healthcare centers in Kahramanmaras. Data were collected through in-person interviews with healthcare workers who completed our questionnaire consisting of 52 questions and designed based on a literature review. SPSS 21 was used to evaluate the collected data statistically. Findings were considered statistically significant if the p-value was lower than 0.05. We evaluated these participants in terms of their levels of knowledge on circumcision. None of the participants had a very high knowledge level. In correlation analysis, it was detected that age (r = 0.194, p < 0.001) and duration of employment in the profession (experience) (r = 0.164, p = 0.001) were positively correlated with knowledge level. Those who found circumcision necessary mostly justified its necessity due to medical benefits (n = 321, 80.3%) and/or religious obligations (n = 242, 60.5%). Our study demonstrates the importance of providing information about circumcision, including the information from the current literature, to primary healthcare workers together with theoretical training and practice both during their formal training and after graduation in Turkey. | ||
