Objective: Infant dyschezia is one of the as yet little known infant functional gastrointestinal disorders and data on dyschezia is extremely limited. In this study, thus, we aimed to investigate the relationship between the psychological and psycho-social states of mothers of 1-6 month-old infants with dyschezia, and the dyschezia of their infants.

Method: The sample consisted of 127 mothers of 1-6 months old infants with dyschezia and 127 mothers of 1-6 months old infants without dyschezia. The psychiatric symptoms of mothers were evaluated using the Brief Symptom Inventory (BSI). The data within the specially prepared personal information sheet were obtained by face-to-face interviews.

Results: We found that the mothers of infants with dyschezia had more social and economic difficulties such as lower education and income levels, lower employment rate, having more children, and less support from their partners in infant care. Compared to the mothers in the control group, the scores of the mothers, whose infants had dyschezia, were significantly higher in both the total, and all of 9 subscales in the BSI.

Conclusion: In conclusion, the mothers of infants with dyschezia have more psychological problems and socioeconomic difficulties. It is possible to say that there may be a relationship between the mother's psychiatric symptoms and her infant's dyschezia problem. We believe that this report would be beneficial to pediatricians, child psychiatrists, pediatric surgeons, and physicians and nurses working in this field.

Diskezisi Olan ve Olmayan Bebeklerin Anneleri Arasındaki Psiko-sosyal Farklılıkları Anlamak

Öz

Amaç: İnfant diskezisi henüz az bilinen bebeklik fonksiyonel gastrointestinal bozukluklarından biridir ve diskezi hakkındaki veriler son derece sınırlıdır. Bu nedenle, bu çalışmada, 1-6 aylık diskezisi olan bebeklerin annelerinin psikolojik ve psiko-sosyal durumları ile bebeklerinin diskezisi arasındaki ilişkiyi araştırmayı amaçladık.

Yöntem: Örneklemi 1-6 aylık diskezisi olan bebeklerin 127 annesi ile 1-6 aylık diskezisi olmayan bebeklerin 127 annesi oluşturdu. Annelerin psikiyatrik belirtileri Kısa Semptom Envanteri (KSE) kullanılarak değerlendirildi. Özel olarak hazırlanmış kişisel bilgi formundaki veriler yüz yüze görüşülerek elde edildi.

Bulgular: Bebeklerinde diskezi sorunu olan annelerin daha düşük eğitim ve gelir düzeyi, daha düşük istihdam oranı, daha fazla çocuk sahibi olma ve bebek bakımında eşlerinden daha az destek gibi daha fazla sosyal ve ekonomik güçlükler yaşadıklarını bulduk. Kontrol grubundaki annelerle karşılaştırıldığında, bebeğinde diskezi olan annelerin KSE'de hem toplam hem de 9 alt ölçeğin tümündeki puanları anlamlı olarak daha yüksekti.

Sonuç: Sonuç olarak, diskezisi olan bebeklerin annelerinin daha fazla psikiyatrik sorunları ve sosyoekonomik zorlukları bulunmaktadır. Annenin psikiyatrik belirtileri ile bebeğinin diskezi sorunu arasında bir ilişki olabileceğini söylemek mümkündür. Bu yazının çocuk doktorları, çocuk psikiyatristleri ve cerrahları, bu alanda çalışan doktorlar ve hemşireler için faydalı olacağına inanıyoruz.
