Abstract

This study has been performed descriptively and correlational to investigate the effects of the experienced burn trauma to patients' quality of life (QOL). Study sample was composed of 88 patients admitted to five different institutions with burn trauma. As data collecting tools, &#8216;survey form', and &#8220;burn specific health scale&#8221; of which validation and reliability study was performed by researchers were used. According to statistical analysis; differences between the sex and QOL was not significant (p>0.05), whereas the relationship between burn depth, burned surface area and QOL was significant (p< 0.05). According to the results derived from the study, burn trauma, no matter how much well treated, causes reductions in QOL individually. Thus fields which deal with burns as health and industry should behave dynamically to protect individuals from burns. &#8220;Burn specific health scale&#8221;, adopted for our country conditions, is reliable and valid to quantify the QOL of burn patients.

Özet

Bu çalışma, geçirilmiş yanık travmasının, hastaların yaşam kaliteleri üzerine etkilerinin araştırılması amacı ile tanımlayıcı-ilişkisel olarak yapılmıştır. Araştırmanın örneklemini, beş ayrı merkeze yanık travması ile başvuran 88 hasta oluşturmaktadır. Veri toplama araçları olarak, &#8220;Anket Formu&#8221; ve yazarlar tarafından geçerlik ve güvenirlik çalışması yapılan &#8220;Yanığa Spesifik Sağlık Ölçeği&#8221; kullanılmıştır. Yapılan istatistiksel analizler sonucunda; cinsiyet ve yaşam kalitesi arasındaki ilişki anlamlı bulunmazken (p>0.05), yanık derinliği ve yanık yüzdesi ile yaşam kalitesi arasındaki ilişki anlamlı bulunmuştur (p
