Bel ağrılı hastalarda EQ-5D ve SF-36 ölçekleri arasındaki ilişki

Abstract

Amaç: Bel ağrılı hastaları değerlendirmede sağlıkla ilgili yaşam kalitesi ölçekleri çok önemlidir. Kas iskelet hastalıkları olan hastalarda sağlıkla ilgili yaşam kalitesini değerlendirmek için hem Kısa Form-36 hem de EuroQol-5D geçerli ve güvenilir ölçeklerdir. Bu çalışma, bu iki ölçeğin kronik bel ağrılı hastaların sağlıkla ilgili yaşam kalitesi hakkında eşdeğer bilgi sağlayıp sağlamadığını araştırdı. Gereç ve yöntem: Çalışmanın başlangıcında kronik bel ağrılı 132 hasta her iki ölçeği doldurdu. Sonuçlar: Bazı önemli sosyo-demografik değişkenler kontrol edildikten sonra, kısmi korelasyon katsayıları iki ölçeğin boyutları arasında genellikle düşük-orta (r
