چکیده
زمینه و هدف

نشانگان افت روحیه، باعث ناتوانی فرد برای مقابله مؤثر با یک رویداد پرفشار می شود و به دنبال آن فقدان احساس تسلط بر امور و معنای زندگی می تواند در فرد احساس بی کفایتی ذهنی ایجاد کند که ممکن است مبتلایان به بیماری های بالقوه مهلک، آن را تجربه کنند. هدف پژوهش حاضر مقایسه نشانگان افت روحیه بیماران مبتلا به ویروس نقص ایمنی انسان با جمعیت عادی بود.

مواد و روش ها

در مطالعه توصیفی- مقایسه ای حاضر، تعداد پنجاه بیمار ( 20 تا 50 سال) مبتلا به ویروس نقص ایمنی انسان، تحت درمان در بخش عفونی بیمارستان امام خمینی (ره) و مراکز بهداشتی درمانی تهران با روش نمونه گیری غیرتصادفی در دسترس انتخاب و با 50 نفر از جمعیت طبیعی که از لحاظ جنسیت، سن و سطح تحصیلات همتاسازی شده بودند مقایسه و پرسشنامه نشانگان افت روحیه کیسان ( ٢٠٠٤) را تکمیل نمودند. داده ها با استفاده از نرم افزار SPSS v.20 برای محاسبه آزمون T مستقل پردازش شدند.

یافته ها

نتایج مؤید وجود تفاوت معنی دار ( 0001 / P < 0 ) بین میانگین نشانگان افت روحیه بیماران مبتلا به ویروس نقص ایمنی انسان و جمعیت عادی بود.

نتیجه گیری

با توجه به بالاتر بودن میانگین نشانگان افت روحیه در این دسته از بیماران، به نظر می رسد پرداختن به نیازهای وجودی آنها در پیشگیری از آزردگی های روانی شدیدتر حائز اهمیت باشد.

چکیده English

Demoralization syndrome is characterized by individual’s inability to cope with the stressful event and losing sense of mastery and meaning of life which could result in feelings of subjective incompetency and people can experience it after potentially fatal diseases. In this regard, demoralization syndrome in patient with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) were compared to the general population.

Materials and Methods

In a descriptive-comparative study, 50 patients (aged 20 to 50 years) with HIV referring to infectious department of Imam Khomeini hospital, and the Tehran health centers with nonrandomized available choice, and with 50 people of general population (aged 20 to 50 years) in terms of gender, age and education level were matched for comparison and were selected to answer the Demoralization Scale (Kissane 2004). Data were processed by SPSS v.20 to calculate independent T test.

Results

Findings indicate significant deference (P < 0.0001) between demoralization syndrome of patients with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) and general population.

Conclusion

Regarding to high level of demoralization syndrome in these patients, paying attention to their existential needs seems to be necessary in prevention of intensification of psychological problems.
