Several studies have linked treatment in the Intensive Care Unit (ICU) with negative psychological outcomes. This study explores the prevalence of negative psychological outcomes in Greek patients (=29), a year after treatment in ICU. Percentages of participants with anxiety [41%, 95% CI (22%, 60%)] and Post- Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) [34%, 95% CI (16%, 53%)] symptoms were similar to the related literature. Percentages of participants with depressive [17%, 95% CI (3%, 32%)] symptoms were rather low. Only 10% of participants reported absence of quality of live issues. Anxiety symptoms were related to desire to talk about the ICU experience (=0.010), duration of propofol administration (=0.018) and loss of employment (=0.019) and negatively related to duration of stay in the ICU (=0.025). PTSD symptoms were related to experiencing other stressors during the year after the ICU stay (=0.001), social constraint (=0.003), duration of propofol administration (=0.004), loss of employment (=0.020), low income (=0.022) and negative ICU memories (=0.029). Depressive symptoms were related to loss of employment (=0.003), low income (=0.029) and social constraint (=0.033). Patients experience elevated levels of psychological symptoms long after they are discharged from the hospital. Several psychosocial factors emerged as important factors to consider for predicting levels of distress.
多项研究表明,在重症监护病房(ICU)接受治疗会产生负面心理影响。本研究探讨了希腊患者(=29例)在ICU治疗一年后出现负面心理影响的发生率。出现焦虑症状[41%,95%置信区间(22%,60%)]和创伤后应激障碍(PTSD)症状[34%,95%置信区间(16%,53%)]的参与者百分比与相关文献中的数据相似。出现抑郁症状[17%,95%置信区间(3%,32%)]的参与者百分比相对较低。只有10%的参与者表示没有生活质量问题。焦虑症状与谈论ICU经历的意愿(=0.010)、丙泊酚给药时间(=0.018)和失业(=0.019)有关,与在ICU的住院时间呈负相关(=0.025)。PTSD症状与在ICU住院后的一年内经历其他压力源(=0.001)、社会限制(=0.003)、丙泊酚给药时间(=0.004)、失业(=0.020)、低收入(=0.022)以及对ICU的负面记忆(=0.029)有关。抑郁症状与失业(=0.003)、低收入(=0.029)和社会限制(=0.033)有关。患者在出院很长时间后心理症状水平仍会升高。一些社会心理因素成为预测痛苦程度时需要考虑的重要因素。
