Abstract

Purpose: The aim of this study was to investigate the relationship between occupational performance,
life satisfaction, disability and mental status in women with fibromyalgia. Material and Methods: 47
women with Fibromyalgia Syndrome (FMS) were included in the study and their sociodemographic data
were recorded. Occupational performance, life satisfaction, emotional status and disability of individuals
were evaluated by Canada Occupational Performance Measurement, Satisfaction with Life Scale,
Hospital Anxiety Depression Scale and The Revised Fibromyalgia Impact Questionnaire (FIQR),
respectively and correlations were analyzed between these parameters. Results: According to the
findings, in FIQR while symptoms increased, anxiety (r=0.440,p=0.002) and depression
(r=0.290,p=0.048) symptoms were negatively affected; in addition, the correlations between the
occupational satisfaction of the individuals and the anxiety findings (r=0.298,p=0.042); and the level of
disability created by FMS according to total FIQR, and depression findings (r=0.302,p=0.039) were
revealed. Both FMS symptoms (r=-0.312,p=0.033) and depression symptoms (r=-0.391,p=0.007)
negatively correlated with life satisfaction. Conclusion: We found that while the symptoms were
exacerbated, occupational and life satisfaction levels were decreased, emotional status was negatively
affected in women with FMS. When focusing on FMS symptoms, it was concluded that the mental state
should not be overlooked. Despite these relations, further studies which include large sample groups are
needed.

Fibromiyaljili Kadınlarda Aktivite Performansı, Yaşam Memnuniyeti, Özür ve Ruhsal Durum İlişkilerinin İncelenmesi

Abstract

Amaç: Bu çalışma, fibromiyaljili kadınlarda aktivite performansı, yaşam
memnuniyeti, özür ve ruhsal durum ilişkilerinin incelenmesi amacıyla planlandı.
Gereç ve Yöntem: Çalışmaya, 47 Fibromiyalji Sendrom’lu (FMS) kadın dahil
edilerek sosyodemografik bilgileri kaydedildi. Bireylerin aktivite
performansları Kanada Aktivite Performans Ölçümü, yaşam memnuniyetleri Yaşam
Memnuniyeti Anketi, ruhsal durum Hastane Anksiyete Depresyon Skalası ve özür Yeniden
Gözden Geçirilmiş Fibromiyalji Etki Anketi (YFEA)  ile değerlendirilerek bu
parametreler arasındaki ilişkiler incelendi. Sonuçlar: Elde edilen bulgular doğrultusunda, YFEA’ya
göre semptomlar arttıkça anksiyete (r=0.440,p=0.002)  ve depresyon (r=0.290,p=0.048)  bulgularının olumsuz etkilendiği; ayrıca
bireylerin aktivite memnuniyetleri ile anksiyete bulguları (r=0.298,p=0.042) ve
toplam YFEA’ya göre FMS’nin oluşturduğu özür düzeyi ile depresyon bulguları
arasındaki korelasyon (r=0.302,p=0.039) ortaya koyuldu. Aynı zamanda, yaşam
memnuniyeti ile hem FMS semptomlarının (r=-0.312,p=0.033) hem de depresyon
bulgularının (r=-0.391,p=0.007) negatif yönde ilişkili olduğu görüldü. Tartışma: Semptomlar şiddetlendikçe, aktivite ve yaşamdan duyulan memnuniyet
azaldıkça FMS’li kadınlarda ruhsal durumun olumsuz etkilendiğini gördük.
Dolayısıyla FMS semptomlarına odaklanırken, ruhsal durumun gözden kaçırılmaması
gerektiği sonucuna varıldı. Ortaya koyulan bu ilişkilere rağmen geniş örneklem
gruplarının dahil edileceği ileri çalışmalara ihtiyaç vardır.
