Comparison of the sociodemografic features, depression and anxiety levels in patients with asthma andtuberculosisAim: In the present study we aimed to compare sociodemografic features, levels of anxiety and depressionamong inpatients with asthma and tuberculosis in a chest disease hospital. Methods: Thirty three asthmaand thirty three tuberculosis patients were assessed by the Spielberger state-trait anxiety scale, the BeckDepression Inventory and the sociodemografic features. Results: The mean ages of asthma and tuberculosispatients were 65± 9 and 41± 15 years old, respectively (p: 0.001). All patients were married in asthma groupand 60 % of patients were married in tuberculosis group (p: 0.001). Depression were founded in 27 % ofasthma patients and 15 % tuberculosis patients. (p: 0.2). Beck Depression total scores were 16± 7 in asthmaand 13± 9 in tuberculosis patients (p: 0.2). States and Trait anxiety scores were 39± 8, 43± 7 in patients withasthma (p:0.3) and 36± 9, 43± 10 in patients with tuberculosis (p: 0.9). Significant correlations were foundedwith beck depression scores and states (r: 0.47, p: 0.001) and trait (r: 0.64, p: 0.001) anxiety inventory scores.Also significant correlations were founded with states and trait anxiety inventory scores. Conclusion: Patientswith asthma were significantly older age and lower economic status than tuberculosis patients. Patients withsingle were significantly higher in tuberculosis. Depression and anxiety levels were similar and depressionlevels were correlated with states and trait anxiety levels in asthma and tuberculosis
Özet
Amaç: Bu çalışmada gögüs hastalıkları hastanesinde yatışı olan astım ve tüberküloz (TB) hastalarının sosyodemografik verilerini, depresyon ve anksiyete düzeylerini saptamak amaçlanmıştır.
Yöntem: Bu çalışmada ardışık 65 astım ve 33 tüberküloz hastası Sosyodemografik Form, Beck Depresyon Ölçeği ve Durumluluk Süreklilik Anksiyete Envanteri ile değerlendirilmiştir.
Bulgular: Astım grubunda yaş ortalaması 66.51±10.99, TB grubunda 41.48±15.32 saptanmıştır (p:0.000). Astım grubunun tamamı evli olup, TB grubunda evli/bekar oranı 20/13'tür (p:0.000). Depresyon; astım grubunda 24/65 (%36.9) ve TB grubunda 5/33 (%15.15) olarak saptanmıştır (p: 0,026). Beck depresyon toplam puanları; astım grubunda 18.34±9.94 ve TB grubunda 13.30± 9.65 olarak saptanmıştır (p:0.019). Astım grubunda durumluluk anksiyete şiddeti 40,2±8.07 ve TB grubunda 36.36±9.56 olarak saptanmıştır ( p: 0,039).
