Detaillierte Beschreibung
This study employs a mixed-methods approach to provide a comprehensive understanding of the climacteric process in the health area of Tarragona. The research is divided into two distinct but complementary phases:
Quantitative Phase (Cross-sectional Descriptive Study):
The objective is to evaluate the level of knowledge and the attitudes of healthcare professionals (nurses and physicians) regarding menopause management.
Data Collection: An ad hoc questionnaire will be distributed electronically through the corporate email systems of the Primary Care centers (ICS).
Variables: Sociodemographic data, professional profile, and specific knowledge scores on menopause, Mediterranean diet, and physical activity recommendations.
Analysis: Descriptive and inferential statistics will be performed using IBM SPSS Statistics.
- Qualitative Phase (Phenomenological Approach):
The objective is to explore the lived experiences, perceptions, and cultural influences of women in the climacteric stage.
Data Collection: Semi-structured individual interviews will be conducted with women from diverse sociocultural and ethnic backgrounds to ensure maximum variation.
Sampling: Purposeful sampling will be used until data saturation is reached.
Analysis: All interviews will be transcribed verbatim and analyzed using thematic analysis with the support of Atlas.ti software.
Ethics and Integration:
The study follows the Declaration of Helsinki and has been approved by the Ethics Committee (IDIAP Jordi Gol). Data from both phases will be integrated to identify specific gaps in clinical practice and the real-world needs of women, aiming to design better community nursing interventions.
