چکیده

مقدمه: هدف از انجام پژوهش حاضر، مطالعه‌ی چگونگی کیفیت رابطه‌ی پزشک- بیمار، سنجش رابطه‌ی میان میزان نارضایتی از رابطه‌ی پزشک- بیمار و میزان استفاده از طب سنتی و مکمل در میان مراجعه‌ کنندگان به مراکز طب غیر ‌رایج بود.روش‌ها: این پژوهش، مطالعه‌ای تحلیلی- ‌مقطعی بود که در آن، ۸۰۰ نفر از مراجعه‌ کنندگان به ۶ مرکز طب غیر‌ رایج شهر شیراز در تیر ماه ۱۳۹۵، با کسب رضایت از آن‌ها و به روش تمام‌شماری مورد مطالعه قرار گرفتند. داده‌ها با استفاده از پرسش‌نامه‌ی محقق‌ساخته که اعتبار و پایایی آن تأیید گردید، جمع‌آوری و با به کارگیری نرم‌افزار SPSS تحلیل شدند.یافته‌ها: ۶۱ درصد از مراجعه ‌کنندگان به مراکز طب غیر‌ رایج شهر شیراز، از کیفیت رابطه‌ی پزشک-‌ـ‌ ‌‌بیمار به میزان متوسط ناراضی بودند و همبستگی معنی‌داری بین میزان نارضایتی افراد از رابطه‌ی پزشک- ‌بیمار و میزان استفاده از طب سنتی و مکمل وجود داشت؛ به ‌طوری ‌که میزان نارضایتی بیشتر، با میزان به کارگیری بیشتر طب سنتی و مکمل همراه بود.نتیجه‌گیری: میزان استفاده از طب سنتی و مکمل، با میزان نارضایتی از رابطه‌ی پزشک- بیمار دارای ارتباط است؛ پس اگر اقداماتی جهت بهبود این رابطه صورت نگیرد، نارضایتی بیش‌تر، استفاده‌ی بیش‌تر از طب غیر رایج را در ‌پی ‌دارد. بنابراین، اقداماتی جهت بهبود رابطه‌ی پزشک‌ـ ‌بیمار از طریق آموزش، فرهنگ‌سازی و توجه بیشتر به حقوق طرفین، می‌تواند از پیامد‌های استفاده‌ی افراطی و بدون اطلاع پزشک از طب سنتی و مکمل جلوگیری کند.

The data were collected using a researcher-made questionnaire. Validity and reliability of data were confirmed and analyzed through SPSS software.Findings: 61 percent of visitors were dissatisfied with the quality of doctor-patient relationship to mediocre extent. There was a significant correlation between the dissatisfaction extent of visitors for doctor-patient relationship and the usage rate of traditional and complementary medicine in that the high dissatisfaction extent was accompanied with the high consumption rate of traditional and complementary medicine.Conclusion: The usage rate of the traditional and complementary medicine is in relation with the dissatisfaction extent of medical behavior. Thus, providing the doctor-patient relationship is not improved, high dissatisfaction and high consumption of non-conventional medicine will be seen. Therefore, it is to take action to improve the doctor-patient relationship by means of education, and culturalization; in addition, it is to pay more attention to parties’ rights in order to avoid the consequences of excessive and without doctors’ leave usage of traditional and complementary medicine.
