Evaluation of Self-Efficacy and Health-Related Quality of Life in Pediatric-Onset Multiple Sclerosis Patients
Abstract
Objective: To assess the self-efficacy level and health-related quality of life in pediatric-onset multiple sclerosis (POMS) patients.
Material and Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted between January-April 2022 at Hacettepe University Department of Pediatric Neurology using The Pediatric Rating of Chronic Illness Self-Efficacy (PRCISE) Scale and Pediatric Quality of Life Inventory (PedsQL).
Results: Twenty-nine POMS patients with a median age of 16.4 years (F/M: 20/9) were included in the study. The mean PRCISE Scale score was 101.8±22.4 and the mean PedsQL score was 66.5±16.2. Both scores were lower than previously reported in the literature.
Conclusion: Lower self-efficacy and HRQoL levels might be attributed to fatigue which is common in POMS. The impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on mental health and quality of life should be addressed in patients with POMS.

Çocukluk Çağı Başlangıçlı Multipl Skleroz Hastalarında Öz Yeterlilik ve Sağlıkla İlişkili Yaşam Kalitesinin Değerlendirilmesi
Abstract
Amaç: Bu çalışma ile çocukluk çağı başlangıçlı multipl skleroz (çMS) hastalarının öz yeterlilik ve sağlıkla ilişkili yaşam kalitesi düzeylerinin değerlendirilmesi amaçlanmıştır.
Gereç ve
Yöntemler: Ocak 2022 – Nisan 2022 tarihleri arasında kesitsel olarak gerçekleştirilen bu çalışmada çMS tanılı hastalalar Pediatrik Kronik Hastalık İçin Öz Yeterlilik Ölçeği (PKHÖYÖ) ve Çocuk Çağı Yaşam Kalitesi Ölçekleri (ÇÇYKÖ) ile değerlendirilmiştir.
Bulgular: Ortalama yaşları 16.4 yıl olan 29 çMS hastası (K/E:20/9) çalışmaya katılmıştır. PKHÖYÖ ortalaması 101.8±22.4 puan elde edilmiş olup, ÇÇYKÖ skorlamasında ortalama 66.5±16.2 puan elde edilmiştir. Her iki değerin literatürde daha önceki yapılmış olan çalışmalardan düşük olduğu görülmüştür.
Sonuç: Pediatrik Kronik Hastalık İçin Öz Yeterlilik Ölçeği ve ÇÇYKÖ ortalama skorlarının düşük olması çMS hastalarında yaygın görülen kronik yorgunlukla ilişkili olabilir. Ayrıca COVID-19 pandemisinin çMS hastalarında mental sağlık ve yaşam kalitesi üzerindeki etkisi de bu sonuçlar yorunmlanırken göz önünde bulundurulmalıdır.
