Otizm Spektrum Bozukluğu (OSB), sosyal, iletişim, davranış ve bilişsel becerilerinde sorunlar ile erken çocukluk döneminde ortaya çıkan ve genelde etkilerini yaşam boyu sürdüren, nedeni ve tedavisi halen bilinmeyen nörogelişimsel bir bozukluktur. Bu araştırmada amaç otizmli çocukların beslenme durumlarını, alışkanlıklarını ve yeme problemlerini belirlemektir. Tanımlayıcı ve kesitsel tipte yapılan bu araştırma, Bağcılar Lokman Hekim Özel Eğitim ve Uygulama Merkezi’nde eğitim gören, 7-14 yaş arası, 10 kız 48 erkek, toplam 58 çocuk ile gerçekleştirilmiştir. Araştırmada çocuk ve aileye ilişkin genel bilgiler, üç günlük besin tüketim kaydı ve besin tüketim sıklığı anketleri uygulanmıştır. Veriler değerlendirildiğinde, çocuklarda sindirim sistemi problemlerinden kabızlık ile şişkinlik ve gaz problemlerinin sık görüldüğü, yeni yiyecek denemeyi reddetmenin de yaygın olduğu görülmüştür. Ayrıca otizmi olan çocukların yiyecekleri renk, tat ve koku özelliklerine göre de tercih ettiği belirlenmiştir. BKİ (Beden Kitle İndeksi) ile yiyecekleri renk, tat, koku özelliklerine göre tercih etme ve BKİ ile yeni yiyecek denemeyi reddetme arasında anlamlı ilişki olduğu bulunmuştur (p<0,05). Besin tüketim sıklığı incelendiğinde süt, kefir, balık, yeşil yapraklı sebzeler, kuru meyveler ve tam tahıllı ekmek gibi besinlerin hiç tüketilmediği görülmüştür. Üç günlük besin tüketim kayıtlarına göre günlük protein alımının fazla olduğu, posa, vitamin B1, B6, folat, kalsiyum ve potasyum alımlarının yetersiz olduğu görülmüştür. Bu çalışmanın sonucuna göre risk altında olan otizmli çocukların beslenme durumları ile beslenme alışkanlıkları takip edilmeli, yaygın görülen gastrointestinal sorunlar tedavi edilmeli, vitamin ve mineral yetersizlikleri önlenmeli ve takıntılı yeme davranışları için çözüm yolları üretilmelidir.
Autism Spectrum Disorder (OSB) is a neurodevelopmental disorder that occurs in early childhood with problems in social, communication, behavioral and cognitive skills, and usually lasts for a lifetime, the cause and treatment of which is still unknown. The aim of this study is to identify the nutritional conditions, habits and eating problems of autism children. This investigation was carried out in the identificative and cutting-edge type, with 10 girls between the ages of 7 and 14 who were trained at the Special Education and Application Center of Bağcılar Lokman Doctors, with a total of 48 men and 58 children. The study applied general information about the child and the family, three-day food consumption record and food consumption frequency surveys. When the data was evaluated, it has been found that constipation and swelling and gas problems in children from the digestive system problems are common, and the refusal to try new food is also common. It has also been determined that children with autism prefer food according to their color, taste and smell characteristics. It has been found that there is a meaningful relationship between the BCI (Body Mass Index) and the preference of food according to its color, taste, smell and refusal to try new foods (p<0,05). When the frequency of nutritional consumption was studied, it was found that foods such as milk, kefir, fish, green-leafed vegetables, dry fruits and whole grain bread were never consumed. According to three-day food consumption records, the daily protein intake was excessive, and the intake of posas, vitamins B1, B6, folate, calcium and potassium was not sufficient. According to this study, the nutritional conditions and eating habits of autistic children at risk should be followed, common gastrointestinal problems should be treated, vitamin and mineral deficiencies should be prevented, and solutions for obsessed eating behaviors should be developed.
