The study was planned to assess quality of life (QOL) and factors affecting it in post-traumatic orthopedically handicapped patients.
This is hospital-based cross-sectional study which involves 68 patients with traumatic orthopedic handicapped injury in the Department of Orthopaedeics, Rehabilitation center and Psychiatry, Government Medical College, Patiala between May 07 and Aug 08. Details of injury were taken on semistructured proforma. All patients underwent detailed psychiatric assessment using International Classification of Disease-10 (ICD-10) and divided into two groups. Group A contains handicapped patients with psychiatric morbidity and remaining patients without psychiatric morbidity were included in Group B. Further, both groups were subjected to Quality Of Life Scale (QOLS) to assess QOL.
QOL was poor in handicapped patients and was affected by severity of injury. Temporal association was seen between psychiatric morbidity and QOL in handicapped patients.
The QOL must be assessed at every stage of treatment for better adjustment of handicapped patients.
本研究旨在评估创伤后骨科残疾患者的生活质量（QOL）及其影响因素。
这是一项基于医院的横断面研究，涉及2007年5月至2008年8月期间在帕蒂亚拉政府医学院骨科、康复中心和精神病科的68例创伤性骨科残疾患者。损伤细节记录在半结构化表格上。所有患者均使用国际疾病分类第10版（ICD - 10）进行详细的精神评估，并分为两组。A组包含有精神疾病的残疾患者，其余无精神疾病的患者纳入B组。此外，两组均接受生活质量量表（QOLS）评估生活质量。
残疾患者的生活质量较差，且受损伤严重程度影响。残疾患者的精神疾病与生活质量之间存在时间关联。
为了使残疾患者更好地适应，在治疗的每个阶段都必须评估生活质量。
