Abstract:
Objective:to investigate the psychological status of the patients suffering from hemoptysis caused by bronchiectasis and influence to hemostasia therapy.Methods:patients were randomly divided into two groups (study group and control group) after their psychological status was collected with SCL-90. The study group received supportive psychotherapy. Both groups were evaluated by parameters such as change of the blood pressure, dosage of pituitrin and duration of hemoptysis.Results:Among all 62 patients, 83.87% were in anxiety, 66.13% had fear. 32.26% of the patients had hypertension relevant to psychological factors, in some of them (20.97%) the use of pituitrin was limited. The time of the mean duration of the hemoptysis decreased to 5 days in the study group, while it was 7 days in the control group.Conclusion:Patients suffering from hemoptysis caused by bronchiectasis usually have mood disturbance, which leads to hypertension. The psychological factors affect not only the hemoptysis but also the use of pituitrin. Supportive psychotherapy is effective in shortening the duration of hemoptysis.
