Özet

Amaç: Duchenne muskuler distrofi; çocuk ve ailesini duygusal yönden olumsuz yönde etkileyen kronik seyirli bir hastalıktır. Bu çalışmada, Duchenne Muskuler Distrofi tanılı çocukların annelerinin ruhsal durumunun ve aile işlevlerinin kontrollerle karşılaştırarak araştırılması amaçlanmıştır. Yöntem: Dokuz Eylül Üniversitesi Tıp Fakültesi Çocuk Sağlığı ve Hastalıkları Anabilim Dalında Duchenne Muskuler Distrofi tanısı ile izlenmekte olan 17 çocuk ile sağlıklı gönüllülerden oluşan 32 çocuğun anneleri çalışmaya alınmıştır. Tüm olguların annelerine sosyodemografik veri formu uygulanmış, Beck Depresyon Ölçeği, Durumluk ve Sürekli Kaygı Envanteri, Aile Değerlendirme Ölçeği verilerek yanıtlamaları istenmiştir. Bulgular: Duchenne Muskuler Distrofi tanılı çocukların annelerinin Beck Depresyon Envanteri, durumluk ve sürekli kaygı envanteri puanları kontrol grubundaki annelerin puanlarına göre daha yüksek bulunmuştur. Aile değerlendirme ölçeğinin duygusal tepki verebilme işlevini gösteren alt bölümü açısından olgu grubu ile kontrol grubu arasında fark saptanmıştır. Sonuç: Duchenne Muskuler Distrofi tanılı çocuğa sahip anneler, sağlıklı çocuğa sahip annelere göre ruhsal yönden daha fazla etkilenmektedir ve bu annelere uygun ruhsal desteğin sağlanması önerilir.
