Abstract:
ObjectiveTo investigate the prevalence rate and influencing factors of depression and anxiety in disabled people in Guang'an during the post-pandemic period， so as to provide references for promoting mental health of disabled people. MethodsFrom April to May 2021， the disabled people dwelling in low-risk areas for coronavirus infections in Guang'an for half a year and met the criteria outlined in Classification and Grading Criteria of Disability （GB/T26341-2010） were selected as the survey subjects， and their depression and anxiety symptoms were evaluated via the Patients' Health Questionnaire Depression Scale-9 item （PHQ-9） and the Generalized Anxiety Disorder Scale （GAD-7） through Wenjuanxing platform. Then binary Logistic regression analysis was performed to screen the risk and protective factors for depression and anxiety in disabled people. ResultsThe detection rates of moderate-to-severe and severe depressive symptoms were 9.05% and 8.35%， and the detection rates of moderate and severe anxiety symptoms were 9.40% and 11.25%. Regression analysis denoted that being laid-off and job-waiting were risk factors for depression and anxiety in disabled people （OR=2.354， 2.353， P<0.01）. Being unmarried （OR=0.418）， married （OR=0.414）， visual disability （OR=0.254）， limb disability （OR=0.460）， good family function （OR=0.241）， moderate family dysfunction （OR=0.288）， complete self-care （OR=0.062） and partial self-care （OR=0.416） were protective factors for depression in disabled people （P<0.05 or 0.01）. Visual disability（OR=0.382）， hearing disability（OR=0.143）， limb disability（OR=0.432）， good family function （OR=0.246）， moderate family dysfunction （OR=0.402）， complete self-care （OR=0.093） and partial self-care （OR=0.378） were protective factors for anxiety in disabled people （P<0.05 or 0.01）. ConclusionThe disabled people in Guang'an during the post-pandemic period suffer a high detection rate of depression and anxiety， and the detection rate is even higher among those being laid-off or job-waiting， while good family function and complete or partial self-care ability are conducive to protecting the mental health of the disabled.
