Abstract:
Objective:To investigate the symptoms of depression and anxiety and their influencing factors in adolescents undergoing facial scar plasty, so as to provide insights into psychological interventions among them.
Methods:The patients with facial scars who were 14 to 25 years old and admitted to the Department of Plastic Surgery, Hospital of Dermatology Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences and Peking Union Medical College were selected. General information and scar condition were collected through questionnaire surveys. Symptoms of depression and anxiety were assessed using the Self-rating Depression Scale (SDS) and Self-rating Anxiety Scale (SAS). The patients who scored 50 points and over in both SDS and SAS were identified as having depression and anxiety symptoms. Factors affecting depression and anxiety symptoms were identified using a multivariable logistic regression model.
Results:A total of 108 adolescents undergoing facial scar plasty were surveyed, with a mean age of (19.16±2.03) years. There were 50 boys (46.30%) and 58 girls (53.70%). Depression and anxiety symptoms were detected in 62 cases, accounting for 57.41%. Multivariable logistic regression analysis showed that girls (OR=1.547, 95%CI: 1.072-2.231), unhealthy diet (OR=1.428, 95%CI: 1.120-1.820), high scores of pain (OR=1.677, 95%CI: 1.120-2.511) and high scores of scar severity (OR=1.629, 95%CI: 1.112-2.387) were associated with increased risks of depression and anxiety symptoms in adolescents undergoing facial scar plasty, while high scores of social support (OR=0.569, 95%CI: 0.348-0.931) and high scores of resilience (OR=0.465, 95%CI: 0.252-0.858) were associated with decreased risks.
Conclusion:Depression and anxiety symptoms are relatively prevalent in adolescents undergoing facial scar plasty, and are influenced by gender, diet, pain degree, scar severity, social support and resilience.
