Yoga, as a mind-body therapy, is effective in improving quality of life for patients with chronic diseases, yet little is known about its effectiveness in female heroin addicts.
The aim of this study was to evaluate the effects of yoga on mood status and quality of life among women undergoing detoxification for heroin dependence in China.
This study was a randomized controlled trial. Seventy-five women aged 20-37 years undergoing detoxification for heroin dependence at AnKang Hospital were allocated randomly into an intervention or a control group. Women in the intervention group received a 6-month yoga intervention in addition to hospital routine care, and women in the control group received hospital routine care only. Mood status and quality of life were assessed using the Profile of Mood States and Medical Outcomes Study 36-item Short-Form Health Survey at baseline and following 3 and 6 months of treatment. Repeated-measures analysis of variance was used to evaluate treatment and time effects on mood and quality of life.
Most female heroin addicts were young and single, with a low education level. Most had used heroin by injection. Mood state and quality of life of female heroin addicts were poor. The intervention group showed a significant improvement in mood status and quality of life over time compared with their counterparts in the control group.
Yoga may improve mood status and quality of life for women undergoing detoxification for heroin dependence. Yoga can be used as an auxiliary treatment with traditional hospital routine care for these women.
瑜伽作为一种身心疗法，可有效改善慢性病患者的生活质量，但对于女性海洛因成瘾者，其效果知之甚少。
本研究旨在评估瑜伽对中国女性海洛因依赖脱毒者情绪状态和生活质量的影响。
本研究为随机对照试验。75 名年龄在 20-37 岁之间、正在安康医院接受海洛因脱毒治疗的女性被随机分为干预组和对照组。干预组在接受医院常规护理的基础上，接受 6 个月的瑜伽干预，对照组仅接受医院常规护理。采用心境状态量表和医疗结局研究 36 项简明健康调查量表在基线、治疗 3 个月和 6 个月时评估情绪状态和生活质量。采用重复测量方差分析评估治疗和时间对情绪和生活质量的影响。
大多数女性海洛因成瘾者年轻且单身，教育程度较低。大多数人通过注射方式使用海洛因。女性海洛因成瘾者的情绪状态和生活质量较差。与对照组相比，干预组的情绪状态和生活质量随时间的推移显著改善。
瑜伽可能改善女性海洛因依赖脱毒者的情绪状态和生活质量。瑜伽可以作为传统医院常规护理的辅助治疗方法用于这些女性。
