The loss of renal function and urination with dialysis can produce a strong emotional crisis in a patient. This study explored the correlation between psychic symptoms and quality of life among hemodialysis patients who were older than 55 years of age in relation to demographic characteristics of age, time on dialysis, and education.
Twenty patients undergoing hemodialysis were included in the study. The psychic symptoms were studied using the Symptom Checklist-90. Revised (SCL-90 R) and the quality of life was studied using the Complete Form Health Survey (SF 36).
The high correlation between psychological sizes investigated through the SCL-90 R test and those for the SF-36 test confirmed the close relationship between physical disorders and mental suffering, and reduced vitality, and lack of socialization.
The psychiatrist and psychologist may help hemodialysis patients to improve their quality of life by providing new coping strategies for each of the family, occupational, and social network.
透析导致的肾功能丧失和排尿问题会给患者带来强烈的情感危机。本研究探讨了年龄超过55岁的血液透析患者的心理症状与生活质量之间的相关性,以及年龄、透析时间和教育程度等人口统计学特征的关系。
本研究纳入了20名接受血液透析的患者。使用症状自评量表90修订版(SCL - 90 R)研究心理症状,使用健康调查简表(SF - 36)研究生活质量。
通过SCL - 90 R测试调查的心理指标与SF - 36测试的心理指标之间的高度相关性证实了身体疾病与精神痛苦、活力下降和社交缺乏之间的密切关系。
精神科医生和心理医生可以通过为家庭、职业和社交网络中的每一个方面提供新的应对策略,帮助血液透析患者提高生活质量。
