To investigate the quality of life of men who had been treated for posterior urethral valves (PUV) in childhood.
Questionnaires were mailed to 108 patients with PUV treated at the Children's Hospital, University of Helsinki, and 67 (62%) of them responded. Three different questionnaires (15D, LSS, and RAND) were used to evaluate the quality of life.
The total quality of life in PUV patients was reported as good compared to the general population in the RAND and LSS surveys. However, in the 15D analysis the PUV patients reported lower scores in sleeping, eating, and sexual activity. Those PUV patients who had been treated for renal insufficiency reported lower scores in several dimensions in all three surveys. Patients with urinary incontinence reported more sleeping problems and regarded themselves physically more disabled.
The PUV patients with renal insufficiency or urinary incontinence had impaired quality of life in several dimensions.
调查曾接受后尿道瓣膜(PUV)治疗的男性的生活质量。
向赫尔辛基大学儿童医院接受 PUV 治疗的 108 名患者邮寄了问卷,其中 67 名(62%)做出了回应。使用三种不同的问卷(15D、LSS 和 RAND)来评估生活质量。
在 RAND 和 LSS 调查中,与一般人群相比,PUV 患者报告的总体生活质量良好。然而,在 15D 分析中,PUV 患者报告在睡眠、饮食和性行为方面得分较低。曾接受肾功能不全治疗的 PUV 患者在所有三个调查中在几个维度上的得分都较低。尿失禁患者报告有更多的睡眠问题,并认为自己身体残疾程度更高。
患有肾功能不全或尿失禁的 PUV 患者在几个维度上的生活质量受损。
