Mental Health Status and Influencing Factors in Elderly Patients with Hearing Impairment
选取老年听障患者224例,采用症状自评量表(symptom checklist 90,SCL-90)评估其心理健康状况,分为阳性组、阴性组;采用医疗社会支持量表(medical outcomes study social support,MOS-SSS)评估其接受社会支持情况,对比阳性组、阴性组接受社会支持情况的差异。收集两组患者临床资料,采用Logistic回归模型分析危险因素,经回归方程拟合的概率值绘制ROC曲线。
To analyze the mental health status and influencing factors in elderly patients with hearing impairment.
Methods
2
224 elderly hearing-impaired patients were selected. Their mental health status was evaluated using the Symptom Checklist 90 (SCL-90)
and they were divided into the positive group and the negative group based on the results. The Medical Outcomes Study Social Support Scale (MOS-SSS) was used to assess the social support received by the elderly hearing-impaired patients
and the social support received by the positive group and the negative group was compared. The clinical data of the two groups of patients were collected
and the risk factors analyzed using the Logistic regression model. The ROC curve was plotted based on the probability values obtained from the regression equation.
Results
2
SCL-90 positive 126 cases (56.25%)
classified as positive group.98 cases (43.75%) were negative
classified as the negative group. The total score of MOS-SSS in the positive group was significantly lower than that in the negative group (
severe or extremely severe hearing impairment were independent risk factors for mental health in elderly patients with hearing impairment (
P
<
0.05). The total score of MOS-SSS was its protective factor (
P
<
0.05). ROC curve analysis showed that the AUC of combined prediction was 0.980
95% CI was 0.960-1.000
sensitivity 0.905
and specificity 0.908.
Conclusion
2
56.25% of elderly patients with hearing impairment have mental health problems. Marital status
family per capita annual income
living situations
number of chronic diseases
hearing impairment degrees
and MOS-SSS total score are important influencing factors for the mental health status of elderly patients with hearing impairment
with high combined predictive efficacy. It is essential to focus on elderly patients with hearing impairment who have these risk factors and provide targeted interventions to improve their mental health status.
