Öz

Amaç: Bu randomize kontrollü araştırma, Romatoid Artritli kadınlara hastalık yönetimine ilişkin verilen eğitimin yaşam kalitesi, anksiyete ve depresyon üzerine etkilerini belirlemek amacıyla planlandı. Materyal ve Metot: Araştırma, Romatoid Artritli 66 kadın hasta (32 deney, 34 kontrol) ile bir üniversite hastanesinin Romatoloji kliniği ve polikliniğinde yürütüldü. Veriler; “Romatoid Artrit Yaşam Kalitesi Ölçeği”, “Sağlık Değerlendirme Anketi” ve “Hastane Anksiyete Depresyon Ölçeği” kullanılarak toplandı. Bulgular: Deney grubundaki hastaların "Romatoid Artrit Yaşam Kalitesi Ölçeği" başlangıç ​​ve üçüncü ay puan ortalamaları arasında anlamlı fark bulundu (p <0,05). Deney grubunun Romatoid Artrit Yaşam Kalitesi Ölçeği puanları ile eğitim düzeyi ve artrit nedeniyle etkilenen deformitesi olma durumu gibi sosyodemografik ve hastalığa ilişkin özellikleri arasında anlamlı ilişkiler bulundu (p <0,05). Sonuç: Bu çalışma, hastalık yönetimine ilişkin verilen eğitimin Romatoid Artritli kadınların yaşam kalitesi üzerindeki etkisini göstermektedir. Romatoloji hemşireleri tarafından Romatoid Artritli kadınlara hastalık yönetimine ilişkin verilecek bireysel eğitimin yaşam kalitesini arttıracağı düşünülmektedir. Romatoid Artritli kadınlara semptomlara bağlı yaşadıkları sorunlara yönelik psikososyal destek almaları önerilmektedir.

The Effect of Disease Management Education Provided to Women with Rheumatoid Arthritis on Quality of Life, Anxiety, and Depression: A Randomized Controlled Study

Abstract

Objective: The aim of this randomized controlled trial is to investigate the effect of education of disease management on quality of life, anxiety and depression in women with rheumatoid arthritis. Materials and Methods: The study included 66 women with rheumatoid arthritis at a university hospital in Türkiye. Data were obtained via "Rheumatoid Arthritis Quality of Life Scale", "Health Assessment Questionnaire", and "Hospital Anxiety Depression Scale”. Results: A significant difference was found between the intervention group’s mean scores on the "Rheumatoid Arthritis Quality of Life Scale" at baseline and third month (p <0.05). Significant correlations were found between the intervention group’s Rheumatoid Arthritis Quality of Life Scale scores and the sociodemographic and disease-related characteristics such as education level and having arthritis-related deformities (p <0.05). Conclusions: The findings obtained in this study showed that education is an effective method to increase the quality of life of women with rheumatoid arthritis. Individual disease management training provided by rheumatology nurses to women with Rheumatoid Arthritis is considered to improve quality of life. Therefore, women with rheumatoid arthritis are recommended to receive psychosocial support in managing their disease and symptoms.
