To investigate the clinical and demographic characteristics and functional status of the patients with fibromyalgia syndrome (FMS).
Ninety-four patients with the diagnosis of FMS were included in the study. All patients were evaluated with short form 36 for quality of life (SF-36), pain, depression, benign joint hypermobility syndrome (BJHS), myofacial pain syndrome (MPS), and demogrophic characteristics. End-point measurements were SF-36 for quality of life, visual analogue scale, Beck Depression Index, anamnesis, and physical examination.
The majority of the patients were women who were suffering from generalised pain with a median age of 40.4. Mostly depression and sleep disorders were accompanying the syndrome. Physical examination revealed MPS and BJHS in most of the patients.
BJHS and MPS must also be investigated in patients with the diagnosis of FMS.
探讨纤维肌痛综合征(FMS)患者的临床和人口统计学特征及功能状态。
本研究纳入94例诊断为FMS的患者。所有患者均采用简明健康状况调查问卷(SF-36)评估生活质量、疼痛、抑郁、良性关节活动过度综合征(BJHS)、肌筋膜疼痛综合征(MPS)及人口统计学特征。终点测量指标为生活质量的SF-36、视觉模拟评分、贝克抑郁量表、病史及体格检查。
大多数患者为女性,中位年龄40.4岁,患有全身性疼痛。该综合征常伴有抑郁和睡眠障碍。体格检查发现大多数患者存在MPS和BJHS。
对于诊断为FMS的患者,也必须对BJHS和MPS进行调查。
