Abstract:
Objective:To investigate the psychosocial behavior status and related factors in patients with adolescent idio-pathic scoliosis(AIS),in order to pay attention to the mental health and provide an empirical evidence of mental health service and rehabilitation for AIS patients. Method:Fifty participants with AIS and 50 matched healthy adolescents were selected.General information of the participants in the two groups was collected.The Scoliosis Research Society-22(SRS-22),the strengths and difficulties questionnaire-self-report(SDQ-S),self-rating anxiety scale(SAS),nine-item patient health ques-tionnaire(PHQ-9)were used to evaluate the quality of life,anxiety,depression and other psychosocial behav-ior of all subjects.Statistical analysis was conducted to determine whether psychosocial behavior was difference between two groups.The correlation between the type and degree of scoliosis and the quality of life and psy-chosocial behavior was further analyzed. Result:The SAS results indicated that the number of participants with different degrees of anxiety in the AIS group was significantly higher than that in the control group(Z=-3.998,P<0.001);SDQ-S results showed that the scores of partner interaction problems(t=3.168,P=0.002)and prosocial behavior(t=2.529,P=0.013)in AIS group were significantly higher than those in control group.The scores of pain in double-bend patients were lower than those in single-bend patients(t=2.824,P=0.007);The degree of lateral bending(Cobb Angle)was correlated with the mobility(r=-0.283,P=0.008)and psychological status(r=-0.300,P=0.047)of SRS-22,and was positively correlated with the score of PHQ-9(r=0.356,P=0.011). Conclusion:AIS patients have different levels of anxiety,peer interaction problems and poor prosocial behav-ior.It is necessary to be high valued and screened,evaluated and intervened as soon as possible.
