Amaç: Alzheimer Hastalığı(AH) tanısı olan bireylerden ve bu hastaların aile bireylerinden alınan bilgilerle doldurulan yaşam kalitesi ve depresyon ölçeklerinin tutarlılığının incelenmesi amaçlanmıştır. Gereç ve Yöntemler: Mini-Mental Test (MMT) sonucu ≥14 puan olan, AH tanısı alan hastalar (n: 86) ve aileleri (n: 86) çalışmaya alındı. Tüm bireylere Geriatrik Depresyon Ölçeği Kısa Formu (GDS-SF), Nottingham Sağlık Profili (NHP) ve Dünya Sağlık Örgütü Yaşam Kalitesi Enstrümanı Yaşlı Modülü Türkçe Versiyonu (WHOQOL-OLD) uygulandı. Ölçeklerdeki tüm soruları tamamlayan 78 hasta ve yakınlarından elde edilen veriler değerlendirildi. Hastaların ve ailelerin ölçek puanları korelasyon analizi ve fark analizi kullanılarak karşılaştırıldı. Bulgular: Hasta ve yakınlarının GDÖ, NHP ve WHOQOL sonuçları arasında orta ile çok yüksek korelasyon bulunmuştur (0.447-0.848). NHP korelasyon katsayıları 0.734 ile 0.848 arası değişir iken WHOQOL korelasyon katsayıları 0.447 ile 0.696 arasında değiştiği tespit edilmiştir. Hasta ve ailesinin verdiği cevapların puanları arasındaki fark incelendiğinde yalnızca NHP uyku, WHOQOL duyusal yetenek, WHOQOL sosyal katılım ve WHOQOL ham puanlarının ortalamalarında istatistiki olarak farklılık bulunmuştur (p<0.05). Sonuç: NHP, GDS-SF ve WHOQOL sonuçları AH tanısı olan birey ve ailesi arasında tutarlılık göstermektedir. Fakat yaşam kalitesi değerlendirmede hastadan bilgi alınacak ise WHOQOL yerine NHP tercih edilmesi daha doğru sonuçlara götürebilir
The aim is to study the consistency of the quality of life and depression scales filled with information from individuals diagnosed with Alzheimer’s disease (AH) and the family members of these patients. Tools and Methods: Patients diagnosed with AH (n: 86) and their families (n: 86) with a score of ≥14 in the Mini-Mental Test (MMT) were taken to study. All individuals were applied the Short Form of Geriatric Depression Scale (GDS-SF), Nottingham Health Profile (NHP) and the World Health Organization’s Life Quality Instruments Old Module (WHOQOL-OLD) Turkish Version. The data obtained from 78 patients and their relatives that completed all the questions in the scales were evaluated. The scale scores of patients and families were compared using correlation analysis and differentiation analysis. Results: The patient and his relatives found a very high correlation between the results of the GDO, NHP and WHOQOL (0.447-0.848). The NHP correlation rates varied from 0.734 to 0.848 while the WHOQOL correlation rates varied from 0.447 to 0.696. When the difference between the score of the patient and his family responds was studied, only the NHP sleep, WHOQOL sensual capacity, WHOQOL social participation and WHOQOL raw score were statistically different (p<0.05). Result: NHP, GDS-SF and WHOQOL results show consistency between the individual and his family with AH diagnosis. But if the quality of life assessment will be given information from the patient, the preference of NHP instead of WHOQOL can lead to more accurate results.
Aim: This study aimed to examine the consistency of quality of life and depression scales using information obtained from individuals with Alzheimer disease (AD) and the family members of these patients. Material and Methods: Mini-Mental State Examination (MMSE) score was ≥14 points patients who were diagnosed with AD (n:86) and their families(n:86) participated in the study. All individuals took the Geriatric Depression Scale Short Form (GDS-SF), Nottingham Health Profile (NHP) and World Health Organization Quality of Life Instrument Elderly Module Turkish Version (WHOQOL-OLD). Data obtained from 78 patients and their relatives who have completed all of the questions in the scales were evaluated. Patient and family scale scores were compared using correlation analysis and difference analysis. Results: A moderate to very high correlation was found between the GDS-SF, NHP, and WHOQOL results of the patients and their relatives (0.447-0.848). It was detected that while NHP correlation coefficients varied between 0.734 and 0.848, WHOQOL-OLD correlation coefficients varied between 0.447 and 0.696. When the difference between the scores of the answers given by the patient and his family was examined, a statistically significant difference was found only in the mean scores of NHP sleep, WHOQOL sensory ability, WHOQOL social participation and WHOQOL raw (p < 0.05). Conclusion: In conclusion, NHP, GDS-SF, and WHOQOL-OLD consistency between the individual with AD diagnosis and their family. However, if information is to be obtained from the patient in evaluating the quality of life, choosing NHP instead of WHOQOL-OLD may lead to more accurate results.
