Abstract:
Objective:To investigate the mental health status of plastic surgery patients.Methods:A total of 487 plastic surgery patients [4 males and 475 females, aged 17-66 (30±10) years)] from Jiangsu Provincial Hospital of Chinese Medicine were investigated by symptom checklist 90 (SCL-90).Results:In a sample of 479 cases, 111 were positive for SCL-90, accounting for 23.1%. Among non-reconstructive surgeries, 92 out of 439 cases were positive, representing 21.0%, while in reconstructive surgeries, 19 out of 40 cases were positive, amounting to 47.5%. The positive detection rate of SCL-90 in reconstructive surgeries was significantly higher than that in non-reconstructive surgeries (χ 2=21.20, P<0.05). Compared with the national norm, the overall mental health status of patients with plastic surgery and cosmetic surgery showed that the average scores of obsessive-compulsive state (1.91±0.43), anxiety (1.46±0.31), hostility (1.60±0.36), and terror (1.28±0.24) were statistically significant higher than the norm ( t=10.03, P<0.05; t=3.27, P<0.05; t=5.20, P<0.05; t=2.50, P<0.05). The average score of obsessive-compulsive state (2.11±0.54), interpersonal sensitivity (1.82±0.39), depression (1.68±0.50), hostility (1.74±0.45), terror (1.39±0.28), paranoia (1.49±0.34), and psychotic (1.35±0.28) in patients undergoing reconstructive surgeries were all higher than those without reconstructive surgeries ( t=2.97, P<0.05; t=2.10, P<0.05; t=2.18, P<0.05; t=2.18, P<0.05; t=2.80, P<0.05; t=2.20, P<0.05; t=2.10, P<0.05). Conclusions:The results of SCL-90 show that the mental health level of plastic surgery patients (especially repair surgery patients) is lower than that of the normal population, which suggests that we should pay attention to the psychological evaluation and care about the physical and mental health of these patients.
