The Hospital Stress Rating Scale was used to measure stress due to the experience of hospitalization for 535 medical and surgical patients in a community hospital. Patients were also asked to rate the pain they experienced on a pain thermometer, and a recovery inventory was used to score patient self-reports of their physical status, both during hospitalization and subsequent to discharge. With statistical control for patient characteristics correlated with self-reports of pain and physical status, associations between hospital stress and these variables were observed. Patients scoring high in hospital stress tended to report more pain, lower physical status during hospitalization, and less improvement after discharge than patients scoring low in hospital stress.
医院压力评定量表用于测量一家社区医院535名内科和外科患者因住院经历所产生的压力。患者还被要求在疼痛温度计上对他们所经历的疼痛进行评分，并使用康复量表对患者在住院期间和出院后的身体状况自我报告进行评分。在对与疼痛和身体状况自我报告相关的患者特征进行统计控制后，观察到了医院压力与这些变量之间的关联。与医院压力得分低的患者相比，医院压力得分高的患者往往报告更多疼痛、住院期间身体状况较差且出院后改善较少。
