Abstract:
OBJECTIVE: To explore the effect of premenstrual syndrome( PMS) on the quality of life( QOL) of female medical staffs. METHODS: By convenient sampling method,1 007 female medical workers from three Grade A class 3 hospitals were selected as study subjects and investigated by PMS Scale,World Health Organization Quality of Life Assessment Instrument Brief Version,Simplified Coping Style Questionnaire and Social Support Rating Scale. RESULTS: The detection rate of PMS among medical staffs was 52. 0%,and the total score of QOL of PMS medical staffs was lower than that of non-PMS medical staffs [( 84. 3 ± 12. 4) vs( 90. 5 ± 11. 6),P < 0. 01]. The multivariate linear logistic regression analysis results showed that the PMS medical staffs who often stay up late,with higher degree of dysmenorrhea,higher job stress,lower positive coping style score,higher negative coping style score,and poor support have lower QOL( P < 0. 05). The coping style and social support of PMS medical staffs can directly affect the QOL. The social support can also indirectly affect the QOL through coping style. CONCLUSION: Coping style is a mediator of social support and QOL.Adopting coping style can improve the QOL of PMS medical staffs.
