Quality of Life was investigated in patients with suspected duodenal ulcer. In self-administrated questionnaires general well-being was evaluated with the Psychological General Well-Being Index (PGWB). Patients were required to fill out the questionnaires before endoscopy. This was done by 1526 patients who, after endoscopy, were divided into five groups; esophagitis (192), gastric ulcer (109), duodenal ulcer (426), duodenitis/gastritis (296) and negative endoscopy (401). Another 70 patients were found to have other diagnoses. Endoscopy was not performed in 32 patients who filled out questionnaires. All five patient groups reported low general well-being with the PGWB index. No statistical significant differences could be seen between the different groups. This study shows that patients complaining of gastrointestinal symptoms have a low degree of general well-being. Among patients with symptoms suspected for duodenal ulcer other diagnoses were common.
对疑似十二指肠溃疡患者的生活质量进行了调查。在自行填写的问卷中，采用心理总体幸福感指数（PGWB）评估总体幸福感。患者需在内镜检查前填写问卷。1526名患者完成了问卷填写，这些患者在内镜检查后被分为五组：食管炎（192例）、胃溃疡（109例）、十二指肠溃疡（426例）、十二指肠炎/胃炎（296例）和内镜检查阴性（401例）。另有70名患者被诊断为其他疾病。32名填写问卷的患者未进行内镜检查。所有五组患者的PGWB指数均显示总体幸福感较低。不同组之间未见统计学显著差异。本研究表明，主诉胃肠道症状的患者总体幸福感较低。在疑似十二指肠溃疡症状的患者中，其他诊断很常见。
