Abstract

Objective: This descriptive and cross-sectional study was conducted to determine death anxiety in patients with heart failure (HF). Methods: The study was conducted with 150 HF patients hospitalized in the cardiology departments of two training and research hospital in Istanbul between December 2018 and May 2019. Data were collected by using the Questionnaire and Thorson Powel Death Anxiety Scale. Descriptive statistics, independent sample t test and One-way ANOVA test were used to evaluate the data. Results: The mean age of the patients was 66.53±9.07 and 55.3% were male. 38% of the patients had diabetes and 78.3% had hypertension. 34% of the participants were NYHA stage 2 HF patients. The mean score obtained from Thorson-Powel Death Anxiety Scale was 56.80±16.55. Death anxiety in patients under 65 years, women, high school graduates, singles and underincome was high but not statistically significant (p>0.05). Death anxiety scores was significantly higher in patients of NYHA stage 4 HF, patients who did not work and patients who considered death as a worrying concept (p>0.05). Conclusion: The patients who participated in the study experienced moderate death anxiety. Death anxiety increases in patients of NYHA classification stage 4, patients who did not work and patients who saw death as a worrying concept.

Özet

Amaç: Bu tanımlayıcı ve kesitsel çalışma, kalp yetersizliği (KY) hastalarında ölüm kaygısının belirlenmesi amacıyla yapıldı.Yöntemler: Araştırma, İstanbul’da bulunan iki eğitim ve araştırma hastanesinin kardiyoloji servislerinde Aralık 2018 -Mayıs 2019 tarihleri arasında yatan 150 KY hastası ile yapıldı. Araştırma verilerinin elde edilmesinde “Anket Formu” ve“Thorson – Powel Ölüm Kaygısı Ölçeği” kullanıldı. Verilerin değerlendirilmesinde tanımlayıcı istatistikler, independentsample t testi ve One-way ANOVA testi kullanıldı.Bulgular: Hastaların yaş ortalaması 66.53±9.07 olup %55.3’ü erkektir. Hastaların %38’inde diyabet, %78.3’ünde hipertansiyonvardır. Hastaların %34’ü NYHA evre 2 KY hastasıdır. Çalışmaya katılan hastaların Thorson-Powel Ölüm KaygısıÖlçeğinden aldığı puan ortalaması 56.80±16.55 olarak bulundu. 65 yaşın altındaki hastalarda, kadınlarda, lise mezunlarında,bekarlarda, geliri giderinden az olanlarda ölüm kaygısı yüksek ancak istatstiksel olarak anlamlı değildir (p>0.05).NYHA sınıflamasına göre evre 4’teki KY hastalarında, çalışmayan hastalarda ve ölümü endişe uyandıran bir kavram olarakgören hastalarda ölüm kaygısı daha yüksek olup istatistiksel olarak anlamlıdır (p
