Abstract: Objective To investigate the status of anxiety,depression and self-efficacy, social support among patients with severe burns and analyze their correlation. Methods Eighty-four patients with severe burns were selected by convenience sampling. They were evaluated by Hospital Anxiety and Depression scale (HADS), General Self-efficacy Scale (GSES) and Social Support Assessment Scale (SSAS) and the correlation of two scales was analyzed. Results The anxiety score was 6.62 ± 3.98, depression score was 7.63 ± 4.36, self-efficacy score was 20.94 ± 4.96 and the social support score was 41.40±6.47;Self-efficacy was negatively correlated with the anxiety (r=-0.356, P<0.05) and depression (r=-0.362, P<0.05). Social support was also negatively correlated with the anxiety (r=-0.305, P<0.05) and depression (r=-0.320, P<0.05). Conclusions There is a medium level of anxiety and depression among patients with severe burns. Psychological interventions via increasing the self- efficacy are suggested for the patients with severe burns in the future.
