Abstract:
Objective:To investigate the status of fear of progression (FoP) in patients with esophageal gastric variceal bleeding (EGVB) due to liver cirrhosis and analyze its influencing factors.Methods:A convenience sampling method was used to select 210 patients with liver cirrhosis and EGVB who were hospitalized at Shanxi Bethune Hospital and Shanxi Provincial People's Hospital between May and December 2023. Data were collected using a general information questionnaire, the Fear of Progression Questionnaire-Short Form (FoP-Q-SF), the Brief Illness Perception Questionnaire (BIPQ), the Medical Coping Modes Questionnaire (MCMQ), and the Perceived Social Support Scale (PSSS) .Results:A total of 210 questionnaires were distributed and 200 valid questionnaires were recovered, with a valid recovery rate of 95.24%. Among 200 EGVB patients, the FoP-Q-SF score was (31.82±10.02). Multiple linear regression analysis showed that gender, number of bleeding episodes, illness perception, coping strategies, and social support were significant influencing factors of FoP in these patients ( P<0.05) . Conclusions:The incidence of FoP is relatively high in patients with liver cirrhosis and EGVB. Healthcare providers should pay attention to the impact of gender, bleeding episodes, illness perception, coping strategies, and social support on FoP and implement targeted interventions to reduce its levels.
