This study aimed to assess the employment status, quality of life, and work functionality in patients affected by inflammatory bowel diseases (IBDs).
Patients (N = 216) were enrolled between June 2020 and October 2021. Personal, clinical, and occupational features were investigated. The Short Inflammatory Bowel Disease Questionnaire and the Work Productivity and Activity Impairment questionnaire were administered.
Among the enrolled patients, 114 (53%) were employed. The mean absenteeism and presenteeism percentages of 10% and 37% were determined, with 44% and 39% of daily and work activity impairment, respectively. A poor Health-Related Quality of Life (HRQoL) was retrieved (47 ± 12). Extraintestinal manifestations, disease activity, and HRQoL were associated with occupational outcomes.
IBD can impact patients' work functionality. The association between clinical, psychological, and occupational issues suggests the relevance for a multidisciplinary management of the disease.
本研究旨在评估炎症性肠病（IBD）患者的就业状况、生活质量和工作功能。
2020 年 6 月至 2021 年 10 月期间招募了 216 名患者。调查了个人、临床和职业特征。采用短炎症性肠病问卷和工作效率和活动障碍问卷进行评估。
在纳入的患者中，有 114 名（53%）患者有工作。确定了缺勤率和现患率分别为 10%和 37%，每日活动和工作活动障碍率分别为 44%和 39%。健康相关生活质量较差（47 ± 12）。肠外表现、疾病活动度和健康相关生活质量与职业结果相关。
IBD 会影响患者的工作功能。临床、心理和职业问题之间的关联表明疾病的多学科管理具有重要意义。
