The objective of this work was to investigate the possible relationship between perceived family support, levels of cortisol and post surgery recovery. The study sample comprised 42 patients that were due to undergo open cholecystectomy surgery in a Regional Health Authority Reference Centre of the Autonomous Community of Extremadura in Spain. The FACES-II questionnaire was used for the evaluation of perceived family support and to measure the three fundamental dimensions of perceived family behaviour: cohesion, adaptability and family type. The day before surgery, a sample of saliva was taken from each subject in order to determine the level of cortisol. Results showed a clear relationship between family support and recovery. Patients with higher scores on the Cohesion Scale demonstrated better post surgery recovery (F = 8.8; gl = 40; p = .005). A relationship between levels of cortisol, perceived family support and recovery was also revealed. Patients with lower scores on the Cohesion scale and higher cortisol levels demonstrated poorer post surgery recovery (F = 10.96; gl = 40; p = .006). These results are coherent with other studies that have highlighted the beneficial effects of perceived family support on mental and physical health.
这项工作的目的是研究感知到的家庭支持、皮质醇水平与术后恢复之间可能存在的关系。研究样本包括42名即将在西班牙埃斯特雷马杜拉自治区区域卫生当局参考中心接受开腹胆囊切除术的患者。FACES-II问卷用于评估感知到的家庭支持,并测量感知到的家庭行为的三个基本维度:凝聚力、适应性和家庭类型。手术前一天,从每个受试者身上采集唾液样本,以确定皮质醇水平。结果显示家庭支持与恢复之间存在明显关系。凝聚力量表得分较高的患者术后恢复情况较好(F = 8.8;自由度 = 40;p = .005)。还揭示了皮质醇水平、感知到的家庭支持与恢复之间的关系。凝聚力量表得分较低且皮质醇水平较高的患者术后恢复较差(F = 10.96;自由度 = 40;p = .006)。这些结果与其他强调感知到的家庭支持对身心健康有益影响的研究一致。
