老年男性慢性阻塞性肺疾病患者的社会支持及相关因素分析

Social Support on Elderly Patients with Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease

目的探讨老年慢性阻塞性肺疾病(COPD)患者的社会支持状况及相关因素的影响。方法选择门诊就诊的60岁以上男性老年COPD稳定期患者60例,采用社会支持评定量表(SSRS)和社会人口学资料进行调查。结果老年COPD患者在客观支持、主观支持、支持利用度3项的得分上比常模低(P<0.05),在不同年龄、文化程度和婚姻状况的人群中,社会支持状况方面有显著性差异(P<0.05)。70岁以上、文化程度低、离异或丧偶的患者是社会支持的弱势群体。结论加强老年COPD患者的社会支持系统建设,重点放在年老、文化程度低和离异或丧偶的COPD患者身上。
