Abstract

Objective: This research was carried out to evaluate the effect of psychoeducation program given to family members of patients with diagnosis of schizophrenia and monitoring on family functioning, the levels of family social support perceived by patients, and treatment collaboration. Methods: The sampling of the study, which was conducted as a pretest-posttest semi-experimental design with a control group, consisted of 66 patients and caregivers (32 experimental and 34 controls) who were diagnosed with schizophrenia according to DSM-IV criteria and received outpatient treatment and follow-up at Erzincan State Hospital and Erzurum Numune Hospital. The caregivers in the experimental group were given psychoeducation once a week for a total 14 sessions that lasted 90-100 minutes each and the patients were monitored for 6 months. The control group was subjected to routine outpatient monitoring. The caregivers were administered the Family Evaluation Scale, and the patients were given the Family-Oriented Perceived Social Support Scale and the Treatment Evaluation Chart. Psychoeducation involves the administration of Coping with Symptoms and Medication Treatment modules of the Social Skills program. The data were analyzed using percentage, chi-square, and t-test for dependent and independent groups. Results: Following psychoeducation and monitoring, a statistically significant difference was found between the experimental group and control group in terms of family functioning of caregivers and the levels of family social support perceived by patients (p<0.001), and it was determined that medication noncompliance rate for the experimental group reduced from 40.6% to 21.9%. Conclusion: It is concluded that a 14-week psychoeducation program and a 6-month monitoring has a highly significant impact on family members of schizophrenia patients to develop healthy family functioning, on the levels of family social support perceived by patients, and the patients treatment compliance.

Özet

Amaç: Bu araştırma şizofreni hastalarının ailelerine verilen ruhsal eğitim programının ve izleme çalışmasının şizofrenide aile işlevselliği, hastaların aileden algıladıkları sosyal destek düzeyleri ve tedavi işbirliği üzerine etkisini değerlendirmek amacıyla yapılmıştır. Yöntem: Ön test-son test kontrol gruplu yarı deneysel model olarak yürütülen araştırmanın örneklemi, Erzincan Devlet Hastanesi ve Erzurum Numune Hastanesi'nde DSM-IV ölçütlerine göre şizofreni tanısı konmuş, ayaktan izleme ve tedavisi yapılan 32 deney, 34 kontrol olmak üzere 66 hasta ve bakıcıdan oluşmuştur. Deney grubundaki bakıcılara haftada bir 90-100 dakika süren, 14 oturumdan oluşan ruhsal eğitim verilmiş ve hastalar altı ay izlenmiştir. Kontrol grubu ise, rutin poliklinik randevularına gelmiştir. Bakıcılara Aile Değerlendirme Ölçeği, hastalara Aileden Algılanan Sosyal Destek Ölçeği ve Tedaviyi Değerlendirme Çizelgesi uygulanmıştır. Ruhsal eğitim, Sosyal Beceri Eğitimi programının Belirtilerle Baş Etme ve İlaç Tedavisi Yaklaşımı modüllerinin uygulanmasını içermektedir. Verilerin analizinde yüzdelik, ki-kare, bağımlı ve bağımsız gruplarda t testi kullanılmıştır. Bulgular: Ruhsal eğitim ve izleme çalışması sonrasında deney ve kontrol grubu bakıcıların aile işlevleri ve hastaların aileden algıladıkları sosyal destek düzeyleri arasında istatistiksel olarak anlamlı fark olduğu (p<0.001) ve deney grubundaki hastaların ilaç tedavisine uyumsuzluk oranının %40.6'dan %21.9'a düştüğü belirlenmiştir. Sonuç: Bu araştırma sonucunda elde edilen bulgular, 14 hafta süren ruhsal eğitim ve altı aylık izleme çalışmasının şizofreni hasta ailelerinin sağlıklı aile işlevleri geliştirme davranış-ları, hastaların ailelerinden algıladıkları sosyal destek ve ilaç tedavisine uyum düzeyleri üzerinde önemli olduğunu göstermiştir.
