Abstract

Purpose: This study was carried out to determine the personality traits, depression levels of women with fibromyalgia syndromes (FMS) and myofascial pain syndromes (MPS) and to compare the two patient groups. Materials and methods: 120 patients (60 with FMS, 60 with MPS) participated in the study. Pain intensity of the patients was measured by visual analog scale (VAS). Beck Depression Inventory was used to evaluate depression levels of the patients. The personality traits of the cases were evaluated by Hacettepe Personality Inventory (HPI). Results: Pain intensity and depression levels of the group with FMS were significantly higher than the group with MPS (p0.05). Both groups’ scores of social consistency scale were at critical level. Conclusion: Chronic painful diseases such as FMS and MPS reduce physical performance and may also negatively affect psychological and personal profiles of patients. There is a need for comprehensive studies, which evaluate psychological and personal profiles in patients with FMS and MPS.

Özet

Amaç: Bu çalışma fibromiyalji sendromu (FMS) ve miyofasyal ağrı sendromu (MAS) olan kadınların kişilik özelliklerini, depresyon düzeylerini değerlendirmek ve iki grup hastayı birbirleri ile kıyaslamak amacıyla yapıldı. Gereç ve yöntem: Çalışmaya 120 hasta (60 FMS, 60 MAS) katıldı. Hastaların ağrı şiddetleri vizüel analog skalası (VAS) ile ölçüldü. Hastaların depresyon düzeylerini değerlendirmek amacıyla Beck Depresyon Envanteri kullanıldı. Olguların kişilik özellikleri Hacettepe Kişilik Envanteri (HKE) ile değerlendirildi. Sonuçlar: FMS’li grubun ağrı şiddeti ve depresyon düzeyleri MAS’lı gruptan anlamlı düzeyde daha yüksekti (p0.05). Her iki grubun sosyal uyum ölçek puanları kritik düzeydeydi. Tartışma: FMS ve MAS gibi kronik ağrılı hastalıklar fiziksel performansı azaltmanın yanı sıra hastaların psikolojik durum ve kişilik profillerini olumsuz yönde etkileyebilmektedir. FMS ve MAS olan hastalarda psikolojik durum ve kişilik özelliklerini değerlendiren kapsamlı çalışmalara ihtiyaç vardır.
