AbstractPain is common but often underrecognized after stroke. Poststroke pain (PSP) hinders recovery, impairs quality of life, and is associated with the psychological state of patients with stroke. The most common subtypes of PSP include central PSP, complex regional pain syndrome, shoulder pain, spasticity-related pain, and headache. The pathophysiologies of these PSP subtypes are not yet clearly understood, and PSP is refractory to conventional treatment in many patients. However, recent studies have proposed potential pathophysiologies of PSP subtypes, which may help prioritize therapies that target specific mechanisms.

The aim: About 10% of socially active women of reproductive age suffer from endometriosis, is determined by the frequent occurrence of menstrual and reproductive functions disorders, and pelvic pain syndrome in patients. The difficulties of therapeutic treatment of chronic pain syndrome in external genital endometriosis (EGE) are associated with polymorphism of pain mechanisms, and delayed diagnosis and treatment. The aim of the study is to improve the effectiveness of the treatment of external genital endometriosis. Material and methods: We examined 60 female patients of reproductive age, 40 – with histologically verified diagnosis of external genital endometriosis and 20 healthy women. We used the following methods of examination: general clinical, instrumental, endoscopic, morphological, the Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) to quantify pain, the Beck Depression Scale and the SF-36 questionnaire. Results: Before the treatment of patients with EGE, VAS scale scores indicated pain in 100% of patients, the indicators of depression and level of anxiety go beyond the normative. The results of the pre-treatment questionnaire indicated lower quality of life scores on the scales of physical and mental health components. As a result of treatment there was significant decrease in the manifestations of pain, depression and anxiety, with women receiving complex therapy (hormone therapy got antidepressants and non-drug correction methods). Сonclusions: Chronic pelvic pain syndrome associated with EGE and accompanied by an unfavorable psychological state, depressive states, anxiety symptoms, and psychosomatic disorders. New approaches to the treatment of clinical manifestations of EGE are needed, taking into account patients’ psycho-emotional status and the life quality analysis. We pathogenetically justified the use of drugs that affect the psychosomatic status of patients with EGE and showed that they could significantly improve the quality of life.

Background: Dialysis patients experience multiple symptoms impairing their quality of life. A relationship seems to exist between the cultural context and the burden of symptoms. In this study, the prevalence and severity of 30 symptoms and their relationship with quality of life among hemodialysis patients in Switzerland is explored.Methods: A cross-sectional correlation design was used with a convenience sample of 119 patients from five dialysis units. Presence and severity of symptoms were assessed with the Dialysis Symptom Index and quality of life with the WHOQOL-Bref questionnaire. Multivariate linear regressions were used to examine the relationship between the prevalence and severity of symptoms, respectively, and quality of life. T-tests and Fisher’s tests were used for the international comparisons.Results: On average, patients reported 10 symptoms and often rated these as “somewhat bothersome”. The most frequent were: lack of energy, dry skin, trouble falling asleep, trouble staying asleep, and muscle cramps. Average symptoms prevalence and severity levels were both observed to decrease patients’ quality of life, items related to physical health and psychological state having the greatest impact. Prevalence and severity of psychological symptoms and prevalence of sex-related symptoms seem to be influenced by patients’ cultural context.Conclusions: These results demonstrate that patients on chronic hemodialysis present several symptoms that affect their quality of life. Healthcare professionals should develop strategies to identify more properly these symptoms, especially sex-related and psychological symptoms.

Discharge From Hospital

There are two important issues in the postoperative management of the urological elderly patient: complications and rehabilitation. Aging is associated with a loss of homeostatic reserve that may lead to postoperative complications due to drug interaction, malnutrition, infection, defects in wound healing, and poor psychological state. Furthermore rehabilitation, if not properly planned or implemented may influence not only the quality of life, but also the whole treatment results. The authors, in relation to pathogenetic aspects, describe what to do to prevent complications and to promote patient recovery. They conclude that both urologists and nurses must have specific geriatric training and that a psychiatrist, dietician, geriatrician and physiotherapist should be part of the team caring for the elderly surgical patient. Finally discharge from hospital must not be the end of therapy: in selected patients nursing management may continue at home reducing morbidity and mortality and helping better rehabilitation.

214 Background: Cancer survivors often experience psychological stress, with impact on quality of life (QOL) and mortality. Religious/spiritual identity and well-being (WB) can also significantly relate to QOL among individuals with cancer. The specific aim of the current study investigates correlates of spiritual (WB), QOL, and psychological state before and after radiotherapy for prostate cancer (PC). We hypothesized that 1) positive correlations between pre-treatment spiritual WB and health-related QOL will be seen both time points and that 2) negative correlations between spiritual WB and depression and anxiety will be seen at both points. Methods: The PHQ-9 and GAD-7 assessed depression and anxiety, respectively. The FACT-P assessed physical, social, emotional, and functional WB. The FACIT-Sp-Ex assessed spiritual WB. Our sample ( N= 65) had mean age of 68 (range 52-81) and education of 16 years (range 10-20). Most participants (82%) identified as European-American. Associations were assessed by Pearson’s correlation coefficients. Results: Pre-treatment spiritual WB positively correlated with social, emotional, and functional well-being (all p < .001). Spiritual and physical WB were not significantly related. Spiritual WB negatively correlated with depression and anxiety (both p < .001). Among a smaller subsample ( N = 39) with pre-, mid-, and post-treatment assessment, spiritual WB significantly increased over time, p < .001. Post-treatment spiritual WB again correlated with social, emotional, and functional WB (all p < .001) and did not correlate with physical WB. Spiritual WB was again negatively correlated with anxiety ( p < 0.05), but it was no longer associated with depression. Conclusions: Assessing and addressing spiritual WB can be helpful in itself, as well as in better understanding QOL and psychological state. Future directions include more fine-grained assessment of pre- and post-treatment spiritual WB in order to better understand which aspects of religious/spiritual identity relate more or less closely to post-treatment QOL for different stages of PC.

The Relationship

Abstract Background Nursing is a high-risk occupation that involves exposure to stress. The physical and mental health of nurses is directly related to the quality of medical services, so the quality of life of nurses cannot be ignored. This study is a Chinese nursing study that investigated occupational stress, job burnout, and quality of life of surgical nurses in Xinjiang, China. Methods This study employed the cluster random sampling method and carried out a questionnaire survey among 488 surgical nurses from five hospitals from May 2019 to September 2019. The study analyzed the relationship between occupational stress, job burnout and quality of life. The Effort-Reward Imbalance questionnaire (ERI), Maslach Burnout Inventory General Survey (MBI-GS) and the 36-item Short Form Health Survey (SF-36) were used to evaluate occupational stress, job burnout and quality of life among surgical nurses. Results A total of 550 questionnaires were distributed in this study, and 488 were retrieved, with an effective recovery rate of 88.73 %. The results revealed that the quality of life score among surgical nurses was not high, and differences were observed in the quality of life score of patients according to gender, age, title, and frequency of night shifts (P < 0.05). There was a positive correlation between occupational stress and job burnout. Higher levels of occupational stress and job burnout were associated with a poorer quality of life score. Occupational stress and job burnout were identified as risk factors for quality of life, and the interaction between high levels of stress and burnout seriously reduced quality of life. The structural equation model revealed that occupational stress and job burnout had a direct impact on quality of life, occupational stress had a direct impact on job burnout, and job burnout was identified as a mediating factor in the relationship between occupational stress and quality of life. Conclusions Surgical nurses have a high level of occupational stress and burnout, and low quality of life score. Quality of life is correlated with occupational stress and job burnout. According to the individual characteristics and psychological state of nurses, managers can implement personalized intervention measures promptly and effectively to relieve their tension and burnout, and improve the quality of life of surgical nurses.
