Omuz sıkışma sendromunda fonksiyonel durum ve yaşam kalitesi ölçekleri arasındaki ilişki

Amaç: Omuz sıkışma sendromlu hastalann fonksiyon değerlendirmesinde kullanılan iki skorlama sistemi, SF-36 yaşam kalitesi anketi ile karşılaştırıldı. Calışma planı: Çalışmaya evre 1 ve 2 omuz sıkışma sendromu tanısı konan 54 hasta (42 kadın, 12 erkek; ort. yaş 54) alındı. Tüm hastalara genel sağlık durumlarını ele alan (Short-Form 36 / SF-36) anketi uygulandı; omuz fonksiyonlan UCLA (University of California at Los Angeles) ve Constant skorlama sistemleri ile değerlendirildi. UCLA ve Constant skorlarının sonucları SF-36 ile karşılaştırıldı. Istatistiksel analizler Pearson korelasyon analizi yöntemiyle yapıldı. Bulgular: UCLA ve Constant skorları arasında kuvvetli bir korelasyon görüldü.(p=0.006). SF-36'nin fiziksel fonksiyon, vitalite ve sosyal fonksiyon parametreleri ile UCLA skoru arasında güçlü bir korelasyon bulunurken (p

The relationship between quality of life and functional status measurements in shoulder impingement syndrome

Objectives: We compared three questionnaires that are used in the assessment of function and quality of life of patients with shoulder impingement syndrome. Methods: The study included 54 patients (42 females, 12 males; mean age 54 years) with a diagnosis of stage I or II shoulder impingement syndrome. All the patients were administered a standard questionnaire regarding their general health status (Short-Form 36 / SF-36). Functional evaluations were made using the UCLA (University of California at Los Angeles) and Constant scoring systems. The results of the UCLA and Constant scores were compared with those of SF-36 with the use of Pearson correlation analysis. Results: A strong correlation was found between the UCLA and Constant scores (p=0.006). SF-36 parameters of physical function, vitality, and social function showed a strong correlation with the UCLA scores (p<0.005), whereas parameters of general health and role emotional exhibited a moderate correlation (p<0.05). When compared with the Constant scores, SF-36 showed a strong correlation only in parameters of pain and general health (p<0.005). The parameter of role emotional was negatively correlated with the Constant scores. Conclusion: Demonstration of correlations between some parameters of SF-36 and the UCLA and Constant scoring systems suggests that SF-36 can be used to assess quality of life of patients with shoulder impingement syndrome.
