Abstract

Although psychosomatic aspects of Meniere's disease have already been pointed out by some authors, few papers have been publisched on this question. 48 patients suffering from Meniere's disease underwent in addition of a complete audiological examination a psychosomatic study using two psychometric auto evaluation tests. It appears that patients suffering from Meniere's disease have a significantly different psychopathologic personality than normals (anxiety, depressive tendency, phobia). Besides, an obvious correlation is found between deafness, vertigo's recurrences and psychopathological disorders. These findings must be taken into consideration to treat patients suffering from Meniere'es disease.

摘要

尽管一些作者已经指出梅尼埃病的身心方面问题，但关于这个问题发表的论文很少。48名梅尼埃病患者除了接受全面的听力检查外，还使用两项心理测量自动评估测试进行了一项身心研究。结果显示，梅尼埃病患者的心理病理人格与正常人有显著差异（焦虑、抑郁倾向、恐惧症）。此外，在耳聋、眩晕复发与心理病理障碍之间发现了明显的相关性。在治疗梅尼埃病患者时必须考虑这些发现。
