“…Esta escala foi selecionada como instrumento de mensuração da autoestima por ser amplamente utilizada em pesquisas científicas. Tem sido utilizada, no Brasil, com diferentes populações e mostra-se particularmente útil para avaliar a autoestima (Ferreira, 2006;Carvalho et al, 2007;Sartore, 2007). Tem como principais vantagens a capacidade de detectar pequenas alterações na autoestima, possuir boas propriedades psicométricas, ser curta e de fácil entendimento (Carvalho et al, 2007).…”

“…O desempenho neste domínio pode refletir a estrutura dos centros de saúde disponíveis na rede pública, referentes ao atendimento dos indivíduos soropositivos para o HIV/aids (Reis, 2008). Carvalho et al (2007) salientam que o Brasil é um país modelo no que se refere ao atendimento assistencial às pessoas portadoras de HIV/aids, disponibilizando serviços de referência multiprofissional para prevenção, diagnóstico e tratamento da infecção pelo HIV/aids disponibilizando gratuitamente os antirretrovirais.…”

The overall goal of this correlational study was to evaluate the health-related quality of life (HRQoL) of women 50 years old or older with HIV/AIDS and its association with sociodemographic, clinical and psychosocial factors. The sample comprised 200 women who were monitored clinically at three clinics of Specialized Outpatient STD/AIDS Services in the municipality of São Paulo. The study was approved by the Research Ethics Committee of the São Paulo Municipal Department of Health (Reports nos. 09/2010 and 66/2010). After signing a Free and Informed Consent Form, the women were interviewed individually in a private room and answered the following instruments: a Sociodemographic and Clinical Characterization, Medical Outcomes Study 12-Item Short-Form Health Survey (SF-12), HIV/AIDS-Targeted Quality of Life Instrument (HAT-QoL), the Rosenberg Self-Esteem Scale and the Herth Hope Index. The data were collected between February and July 2010 and were analyzed statistically, including descriptive, reliability and correlation analysis of the instruments, a comparison of averages and a logistic regression analysis. The results revealed a greater involvement of HRQoL in the domains of Disclosure Worries (30.65 ±30.22) and Financial Worries (35.50 ±35.97), and better scores in the domains: Provider Trust (79.79 ±21.27) and Medication Worries (76.49 ±21.06) of the HAT-QoL. In addition, a significant positive correlation was found between the components of the SF-12 and five domains of the HAT-QoL; between the components of the SF-12 and the hope and self-esteem scores; and between the HAT-QoL domains and hope (except for two domains) and self-esteem (except for two domains) scores. A comparison of the average values of HRQoL based on sociodemographic, clinical and psychosocial factors revealed a statistical association among sociodemographic (marital status, education and per capita income), clinical (self-perception of health status, viral load, CD4, time of awareness of the presence of HIV, current status of the disease, the use and time of antiretroviral therapy and how she feels about the treatment) and psychosocial (selfesteem and hope) factors. The logistic regression indicated that, in general, a higher monthly income per capita, a CD4 count above 200 cells/mm 3 , the use of antiretroviral medication/drugs, long-term awareness of the HIV infection, a good to excellent perceived health status, and higher levels of hope and self-esteem all contribute to improve the HRQoL of women 50 years or older suffering from HIV/AIDS. Therefore, it is concluded that sociodemographic, clinical and psychosocial factors influence the HRQoL of the women under study.

Quality of Life in Patients with Non-melanoma Skin Cancer: Implications for Healthcare Education Services and Supports

et al. 2018

View full text Add to dashboard Cite

Non-melanoma skin cancer (NMSC) is the most prevalent type of cancer among Caucasian populations worldwide. The purpose of this work was to measure quality of life (QOL) of the patients with diagnosis of basal cell carcinoma (BCC) and squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) who were referred to our cancer clinic. During 1 year, 95 patients were selected and asked to complete Dermatology Life Quality Index (DLQI) questionnaires. Ninety-five patients with NMSC (74 men and 21 women) with mean age of 64.6 ± 12.5 participated in this cross-sectional study. From 95 patients, 75 had BCC, 15 had SCC, and 5 patients had both SCC and BCC. The total DLQI scores of the all participants were between 0 and 16; the mean was 4.1 ± 4.25 and median was 2. Variables which were associated with impaired QOL were marital status (P = 0.03) and tumor location (P = 0.02). By using general dermatology QOL questionnaire, it had been demonstrated that patients with NMSC faced with minimal QOL impairment; also, this handicap was more pronounced in younger patients and singles and patients with tumors located in exposed areas. Our findings demonstrated a need to educate our patients to improve patients' knowledge about different aspects of disease.

This study examined the relationships between coping style, body image, psychological morbidity, and quality of life. A total of 58 patients who were diagnosed with skin tumors, had been submitted to surgery, and were in the follow-up phase answered the following instruments: dermatology life quality index (DLQI), hospital anxiety and depression scales (HADS), body image scale (BIS), and the mini mental adjustment to cancer scale (Mini-MAC). The results showed that patients with a higher use of the coping styles of helplessness/hopelessness, anxious preoccupation, and cognitive avoidance reported a worse quality of life. Body image mediated the relationship between the coping styles of anxious preoccupation, helplessness/hopelessness, and quality of life. Psychological morbidity mediated the relationship between helplessness/hopelessness and quality of life. Therefore, even in the follow-up phase, it is important that health professionals are aware of the patient's emotional distress and body image to identify those at a higher risk of having a poorer quality of life.
