This study examined changes in the quality of life (QOL), as well as the factors affecting QOL, among patients with painful spinal bone metastases without paralysis for 1 month after radiotherapy.
This study included 79 participants (40 male and 39 female; median age, 65 (42-88) years) who had undergone radiotherapy for painful spinal bone metastases without paralysis. Patients' age, sex, activities of daily living (Barthel index), pain, spinal instability (spinal instability neoplastic score [SINS]), and QOL (EORTC QLQ-C30) were investigated.
Having an unstable SINS score was a positive factor for global health status ( < 0.05). The improvement in activities of daily living and response to pain were positive factors for physical function ( < 0.05). A positive effect on emotional function was confirmed among female patients ( < 0.05).
Engaging in rehabilitation along with radiotherapy leads to improvements in QOL for patients with spinal bone metastases.
本研究调查了放疗后1个月内无瘫痪的疼痛性脊柱骨转移患者的生活质量(QOL)变化以及影响生活质量的因素。
本研究纳入了79例因疼痛性脊柱骨转移接受放疗且无瘫痪的参与者(40例男性和39例女性;中位年龄65(42 - 88)岁)。调查了患者的年龄、性别、日常生活活动能力(巴氏指数)、疼痛、脊柱稳定性(脊柱不稳定肿瘤评分[SINS])和生活质量(欧洲癌症研究与治疗组织生活质量问卷核心30量表[EORTC QLQ - C30])。
SINS评分不稳定是全球健康状况的一个积极因素(P < 0.05)。日常生活活动能力的改善和对疼痛的反应是身体功能的积极因素(P < 0.05)。在女性患者中证实了对情绪功能有积极影响(P < 0.05)。
放疗同时进行康复治疗可改善脊柱骨转移患者的生活质量。
