Abstract

Objectives: We evaluated the puality of life of patients with nasal polyposis and sought correlations between clinical and laboratory parameters and quality of life. Patients and Methods: Thirty-two patients (8 females, 24 males; mean age 43 years; range 15 to 68 years) with nasal polyposis were evaluated by history, physical examination, endoscopy, computed tomography (CT), nasal smear, and skin prick tests. Ouality of life was assessed using the Medical Outcomes Study Short Form 36 (SF-36). Results: The mean CT score showed a weak correlation with symptom and endoscopic scores (p<0.05), whereas the latter two scores were not correlated. All the SF-36 scales were adversely influenced, particularly including the scores for role limitation caused by emotional problems, general perception of health, vitality, and role limitation caused by physical problems. An inverse correlation was found between increasing age and complaints of pain (p<0.05). Symptom scores were correlated only with role limitation caused by emotional problems (p<0.05). Duration of nasal symptoms was correlated with increased scores for role limitation caused by physical problems, mental health, social functioning, and pain (p<0.05). Computed tomography stage was correlated with role limitation caused by emotional problems, pain, and social functioning, vvhereas CT scores shövved correlation only with pain (p<0.05). The presence of asthma adversely influenced general perception of health scores (p<0.05). Conclusion: Nasal polyposis adversely affects the quality of life of patients, the extent of deterioration being more prominent in certain subscales.

Özet

Amaç: Nazal polipozisli (NP) hastalarda yaşam kalitesini değerlendirerek çeşitli klinik, laboratuvar parametrelerin yaşam kalitesi ile ilişkisini araştırmayı amaçladık. Hastalar ve Yöntemler: Nazal polipozis tanılı 32 hasta (8 kadın, 24 erkek; ort. yaş 43; dağılım 15:68) öykü, fizik muayene, endoskopi, bilgisayarlı tomografi, nazal smear ve deri testi ile incelendi. Yaşam kalitesi, MOS Short Form-36 (SF-36) ölçütünün Türkçe versiyonu kullanılarak değerlendirildi. Sonuçların klinik ve laboratuvar veriler ile ilişkisi incelendi. Bulgular: Bilgisayarlı tomografi skoru ile semptom skoru ve endoskopik skor arasında zayıf bir ilişki bulunurken (p<0.05), semptom skoru ile endoskopik skor arasındaki ilişki anlamlı bulunmadı. SF-36'nın özellikle emosyonel rol güçlüğü, genel sağlık, enerji ve fiziksel rol güçlüğü skorla-rı önemli derecede düşük bulundu. Yaş ilerledikçe hastaların ağrıdan dolayı hissettiği memnuniyetsizliğin azaldığı görüldü (p<0.05). Semptom skoru sadece emosyonel rol güçlüğü ile anlamlı ilişki gösterdi (p<0.05). Semptom süresi uzadıkça fiziksel rol güçlüğü, mental sağlık, sosyal fonksiyon, ağrı alt ölçek skorları da anlamlı artış gösterdi (p<0.05). Bilgisayarlı tomografi evresi ile emosyonel rol güçlüğü, sosyal fonksiyon ve ağrı skalaları arasında; BT skoru ile sadece ağrı skalası arasında anlamlı ilişki gözlendi (p<0.05). Astımlı hastalarda genel sağlık algılamasının anlamlı düşüş gösterdiği görüldü (p<0.05). Sonuç: Nazal polipozisli hastalarda yaşam kalitesi, özellikle belli bazı alt ölçeklerde daha belirgin olmak üzere etkilenmektedir.
