Abstract:
Objective To investigate the psychopathological characteristics in families of presbycusis patients and its influencing factors.Methods The psychopathological characteristics were evaluated with the Symptom Checklist-90(SCL-90) Chinese version in 157 families of presbycusis patients(FPP) in the Affiliated Hospital of Yangzhou University from July 2015 to July 2017. Somatization, obsessive - compulsive disorder, interpersonal sensitivity,depression,anxiety,hostility,phobic anxiety,paranoid ideation,psychoticism and other were assessed and compared with the Chinese standard norm.The correlation between SCL-90 and related data had also been analyzed. The general information and clinical data of patients were analyzed.Results The SCL-90 score in the FPP group was (146.3 ± 42.8)points.The total score and total average score of SCL-90 had statistically significant difference between the FPP group and the Chinese standard group(t=14.557,14.765,all P<0.05).The scores of somatiza-tion,interpersonal sensitivity,depression and anxiety factors in the FPP group were higher than those in the Chinese standard group(t=5.417,13.588,20.857,22.475,all P<0.05).Age,sleeping condition,educational level,hearing aids and the level of patients'hearing loss were correlated with the total score of SCL-90( TSCL-90) in FPP( all P<0.05).Multiple linear regression analysis showed that age(t=2.550,P<0.000),the educational level( t =4.087,P<0.000),and the level of patients'hearing loss ( t =2.188, P <0.05 ) were positively correlated with TSCL-90,and sleeping condition(t= -2.004,P<0.05) and hearing aids(t= -4.643,P<0.05) were negatively associated with TSCL-90.Conclusion The psychopathological characteristics are generally poor in families with presbycusis patients,accompanied by obvious depression and anxiety;and age,sleeping condition,educational level, hearing aids and the level of patients'hearing loss are important influencing factors.It is important to pay attention to overall health in families with presbycusis patients.
