There are limited data about the quality of life of rheumatoid arthritis patients admitted to rehabilitation centres in Hungary.
The aim of the authors was to assess demographic data, social status, health related quality of life, and needs for assistance and disease-related information of 239 rheumatoid arthritis patients (169 women and 7 men) admitted to four rehabilitation centres in Hungary.
For the assessment of demographic, social and other data the authors developed questionnaires. The health related quality of life was evaluated using the validated Short Form 36 questionnaire.
The authors found that rheumatoid arthritis patients require in-patient rehabilitation relatively early in their disease course. 80.4% of the patients were over 50 years of age, and their social status was low as compared to the average of the Hungarian population. The health related quality of life of patients was significantly lower than that of the average population, but it was similar to the quality of life of patients with osteoarthritis, osteoporosis and low back pain. Among domains of the quality of life, the scores for physical function and pain were the lowest. The most common accompanying diseases included hypertension and osteoporosis. In case of knee and hip surgeries, postoperative rehabilitation was performed in due time. Patients were not satisfied with disease-related information and education given by health care providers.
There is poor quality of life of rheumatoid arthritis patients admitted to rehabilitation centres in Hungary. More efforts should be done to provide disease-related information and education for patients.
关于匈牙利康复中心收治的类风湿关节炎患者的生活质量数据有限。
作者旨在评估匈牙利四家康复中心收治的239名类风湿关节炎患者（169名女性和70名男性）的人口统计学数据、社会状况、健康相关生活质量以及对援助和疾病相关信息的需求。
作者设计了问卷来评估人口统计学、社会和其他数据。使用经过验证的简短健康调查问卷36来评估健康相关生活质量。
作者发现类风湿关节炎患者在病程相对早期就需要住院康复。80.4%的患者年龄超过50岁，与匈牙利人口平均水平相比，他们的社会地位较低。患者的健康相关生活质量显著低于一般人群，但与骨关节炎、骨质疏松症和腰痛患者的生活质量相似。在生活质量的各个领域中，身体功能和疼痛方面的得分最低。最常见的伴发疾病包括高血压和骨质疏松症。对于膝关节和髋关节手术，术后康复及时进行。患者对医疗服务提供者提供的疾病相关信息和教育不满意。
匈牙利康复中心收治的类风湿关节炎患者生活质量较差。应做出更多努力为患者提供疾病相关信息和教育。
