Abstract:
Objective To explore the bone mineral density (BMD) status and its influencing factors in schizophrenia patients in order to provide basis for risk assessment in psychiatric nursing.Methods A total of 1,139 hospitalized schizophrenia patients were recruited and assigned into the medication group (n=652) and the non-medication group (n=487) according to previous antipsychotic drug history.T-score and Z-score of BMD were determined using Sunlight Omnisense 7000S Bone Densitometry.Blood calcium,blood phosphorus and serum prolactin levels were measured using fasting blood of ulnar vein.Results Differences in age,BMD,milk intake,level of activity,level of smoking,history of fall,history of fracture,serum Ca2+ and PRL were statistically significant between two groups(P<0.05);there were significant differences in BMD rank distributions among schizophrenia patients with different courses of disease and lengths of taking antipsychotics (P<0.001);multiple linear regression showed that influencing factors of BMD with statistical significance were courses of disease,lengths of taking antipsychotics,serum Ca2+,serum PRL,milk intake,level of activity,and level of smoking.Conclusion The BMD was lower in the medication group than that in the non-medication group,and the development of osteoporosis was correlated to various factors.Clinical nurses should master high-risk factors thoroughly and adopt intervention measures in a timely manner.
