Abstract

Objective: To investigate the anxiety disorders and influence factors that occur in adolescent patients with cleft lip and palate and to provide theoretical foundation for mental intervention.

Methods: A total of 120 adolescent patients with cleft lip and palate were investigated using a general information questionnaire, the self-rating anxiety scale, and the social support rating scale (SSRS). The influence factors of anxiety disorders were analyzed.

Results: The effective questionnaires were 119. The occurrence rate of anxiety disorder in adolescent patients was 49.6% (59/119), and the occurrence rates of mild, moderate, and severe anxieties were 41.2% (49/119), 7.6% (9/119), and 0.8% (1/119), respectively. The gender, residential area, disease category, family status (one child or no children), and incidence rate of anxiety disorder in patients were statistically different (P<0.05). The SSRS scores of patients with anxiety disorder were lower than those of patients without anxiety disorder (P<0.05). Multiple regression analysis showed that gender and social support were predictive factors of the occurrence of anxiety disorder (R=0.318).

Conclusion: A high anxiety disorder rate occurred in adolescent patients with cleft lip and palate. dender and social support were important influencing factors for anxiety disorder. In the after-mental intervention, considerable attention should be given to the anxiety disorders of patients and improve their mental health.

目的: 探讨青少年唇腭裂患者焦虑症的发生情况及影响因素。

方法: 选取120例青少年唇腭裂患者作为研究对象,采用一般人口学问卷、焦虑自评量表、社会支持评定量表(SSRS)进行问卷调查,分析各因素对焦虑症发生的影响。

结果: 回收有效问卷119份。青少年唇腭裂患者焦虑症的发生率为49.6%(59/119),其中轻度、中度、重度焦虑症发生率分别为41.2%(49/119)、7.6%(9/119)、0.8%(1/119)。不同的性别、居住地区、疾病类别、是否独生子女,其焦虑症的发生率有统计学差异(P<0.05)。焦虑症患者SSRS得分低于无焦虑症患者(P<0.05)。社会支持与性别对患者焦虑症的发生有预测作用(R=0.318)。

结论: 青少年唇腭裂患者焦虑症发病率较高,性别与社会支持是其重要的影响因素,应针对好发人群早期进行心理干预。
