<p><strong>Objective:</strong> This study investigated symptoms of anxiety and depression in relatives of patients admitted in the Intensive Care Unit and determined whether these symptoms were associated to the seriousness of the patients’ condition.</p><p><strong>Metodology:</strong> A total of 102 patients’ relatives were surveyed<br />during the study. They were given a self-report questionnaire in order to assess demographic data, anxiety and depression symptoms. The symptoms of anxiety and depression were evaluated with the Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (hads). Patient’s condition was evaluated with a.p.a.ch.e ii Score.</p><p><strong>Results:</strong> More than 60% of patients’ relatives presented severe symptoms of anxiety and depression.

Hand Massage

BackgroundIn intensive care environments, patients’ families are often encouraged to participate in their loved one’s care; however, many family members feel anxious, depressed, and unsure about how to help patients.ObjectivesTo determine (1) the feasibility of teaching family members a simple intervention combining hand massage with essential oils in a trauma intensive care unit and (2) an effect size for use in designing a more powerful trial.MethodA quasi-experimental pilot study of the effect of a family-delivered touch treatment on anxiety and depression of family members of patients. Fifteen family members were assigned to a treatment group, and 15 family members were assigned to a control group. The treatment consisted of the application of hand massage with essential oils for 6 sessions. Each session lasted 5 minutes and was presented twice a day for 3 days.ResultsThe 5-minute intervention was associated with positive change in anxiety and depression scores on the Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (HADS) among family members visiting patients. The magnitude of change (improvement) in anxiety scores within the group of treated family members was significantly greater than within family members in the control group.ConclusionAdministering a brief hand massage using pleasant-smelling oils to patients in an intensive care unit may reduce anxiety of family members who administer the treatment.

In Intensive Care Unit (ICU) survivors, critical illness has an impact on an individual’s long-term health status and quality of life. Adults who have recovered from intensive care management could develop muscle weakness, neurocognitive impairment, difficulties in managing activities of daily living and to returning to work, and psychological problems such as depression and anxiety. A prospective, observational study was designed. Data were collected from January to December 2018 from a structured follow-up program, at 3 time points after ICU discharge: at seven days, a visit in the general ward, a phone interview at three months and an ambulatory visit at six months. A total of 95 patients were enrolled, 36% female, with a median age of 65 (55–73) years and a median ICU length of stay of 13 (8–20) days. At the seven days follow-up, patients who had a positive Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale showed a significantly longer time of intubation (p = 0.048) and length of ICU stay (p = 0.023). At three months, we observed a significant relationship between a positive Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale and a median value of EuroQol-5D (p = 0.048). At six months, we observed that patients who had a positive Post-Traumatic Symptom Scale were significantly younger than the other group. Findings from the present study suggest that a longer time of intubation and length of ICU stay are associated with a higher level of anxiety and depression immediately after ICU discharge. Follow-up programs are recommended to assess and rehabilitate cognitive function at ICU discharge.

Background:The Cochin 17-item Scleroderma Functional (CSF-17) Scale is a patient-reported outcome measure evaluating activities and participation in patients with systemic sclerosis (SSc).Objectives:The aim of the present study was to translate and cross-culturally adapt the CSF-17 into the Turkish language and investigate its convergent validity and reliability in Turkish-speaking patients with SSc.Methods:The CSF-17 was cross-culturally adapted according to Beaton’s guideline. Participants completed CSF-17 Scale, Scleroderma Health Assessment Questionnaire (SHAQ), Short Form-12 (SF-12) Health Survey and Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (HADS). Internal consistency and test-retest reliability were determined interpreting Cronbach’s alpha and Intraclass Correlation Coefficient (ICC) values, respectively. Convergent validity was tested using Pearson’s correlation coefficient.Results:Fifty-six patients with SSc were enrolled in the study. Cronbach’s alpha and ICC values of the CSF-17 total score were found to be as 0.963 and 0.958, respectively, indicating excellent reliability. As for the convergent validity, it was determined that CSF-17 total score has a good correlation with SHAQ. Correlations of subscales of CSF-17 with subscales of SF-12 and HADS ranged from poor to moderate (Table 1).Conclusion:Tukish version of CSF-17 met the set criteria of reliability and convergent validity. According to the results of the analysis, it was concluded that the Turkish version of the CSF-17 is a reliable and valid tool for Turkish-speaking SSc patients.References:[1]Daste C, Abdoul H, Foissac F et al.

Predictors Of Depression

The goal of this study was to examine the effects of mindfulness (MF) and spiritual intelligence (SI) as predictors of depression and anxiety, the most frequent manifestations of mental disorders – among 184 Turkish participants of diverse ages, predominantly students, living in Istanbul and Sarajevo. Four instruments were administered either directly or via web-based services: Scale for Spiritual Intelligence (SSI), Hospital anxiety and depression scale (HADS), Five Facet Mindfulness Questionnaire – Short Form (FFMQ-S) and Sociodemographic Information Form. Through the use of linear regression analysis, Actaware (b=-.19, p≤.001), Nonjudge (b=-.22, p≤.001), Nonreact (b=-.19, p≤.001) subscales of FFMQ-S were found to be negative predictors for depression and anxiety, whereas, Self-understanding subscale of SSI was not significant. Although our findings suggest that spiritual intelligence is not significant in prediction of depression and anxiety, our research provides empirical evidence for the link between MF, SI, depression and anxiety, as well as revealing MF as predictor for anxiety and depression which may be useful for further improvements in the scope of current interventions.
