The tonsillectomy is a common surgical procedure performed for the treatment of chronic tonsillitis (CT). In the present study, we aim to evaluate the quality of life (QOL) after CT.
We conducted a retrospective study among 100 tonsillectomy patients whose data were collected from the department records. The QOL was evaluated using the "Glasgow Benefit Inventory." We assessed various parameters pre-and post-surgery. We deliberated < 0.05 as significant when comparing the pre-and post-surgical QOL.
We observed that of the 100 subjected selected for the study, there was a significant improvement in the QOL and the disease severity variables.
The tonsillectomy for the treatment of CT among adults has improved the QOL of the patients. Overall patients' health conditions and professional life improved after the procedure.
扁桃体切除术是治疗慢性扁桃体炎(CT)的常见外科手术。在本研究中,我们旨在评估扁桃体切除术后的生活质量(QOL)。
我们对100例扁桃体切除术患者进行了回顾性研究,其数据从科室记录中收集。使用“格拉斯哥获益量表”评估生活质量。我们在手术前后评估了各种参数。在比较手术前后的生活质量时,我们将<0.05视为具有统计学意义。
我们观察到,在入选研究的100例患者中,生活质量和疾病严重程度变量有显著改善。
成人慢性扁桃体炎患者行扁桃体切除术可改善其生活质量。术后患者的整体健康状况和职业生活均有所改善。
