In medicine, quality of life is a very important issue. Nowdays, in our circumstances, it is an important part of diagnostic and therapeutic procedures. The aim of this study was to analyze the role of EQ5D questionnaire in patients with sarcoidosis.
EQ5D self-questionnaire was used in patients with sarcoidosis and we analyzed the obtained data.
The analysis included patients with previously proved sarcoidosis--pulnmonary and extrapulmonary (bronchoscopy and other biopsies). All patients were treated at the Institute of Tuberculosis and Lung Diseases. We analyzed a group of 84 (19 male and 65 female) patients with average age of 45 years. Most patients had a chronic state of disease and were nonsmokers. In regard to the radiographic stage of pulmonary sarcoidosis, levels of disease activity (acute, chronic and relapse), levels of sACE, levels of sIgE, smokers--non smokers, and in regard to obtained scores, no statistically significant difference was found in examined groups, except in the group of patients with low level sIgE (score 0.276).
EQ5D questionnaire is a good tool for analyzing the health status of patients with sarcoidosis, but still a more specific questionnaire should be designed for this multisystem disease.
在医学领域,生活质量是一个非常重要的问题。如今,在我们的医疗环境中,它是诊断和治疗过程的重要组成部分。本研究的目的是分析EQ5D问卷在结节病患者中的作用。
对结节病患者使用EQ5D自填问卷,并对所得数据进行分析。
分析纳入了先前经证实患有结节病的患者——肺部和肺外结节病(通过支气管镜检查和其他活检确诊)。所有患者均在结核病和肺部疾病研究所接受治疗。我们分析了一组84例患者(19例男性和65例女性),平均年龄为45岁。大多数患者患有慢性疾病,且不吸烟。关于肺部结节病的影像学分期、疾病活动水平(急性、慢性和复发)、血清血管紧张素转换酶(sACE)水平、血清免疫球蛋白E(sIgE)水平、吸烟者与非吸烟者,以及所得分数,在各检查组中未发现统计学上的显著差异,但在sIgE水平较低的患者组(得分0.276)中除外。
EQ5D问卷是分析结节病患者健康状况的良好工具,但对于这种多系统疾病,仍应设计更具针对性的问卷。
