Abstract

We conducted a cross-sectional survey of 101 bereaved parents in Switzerland to determine the association between time-after-death and psychological distress. Eligible deceased children were identified via the national registry and forwarded to former treating pediatric oncology centers, which then contacted the parents. Psychological distress was measured using the Brief Symptom Inventory (BSI-18). Time-after-death ranged from 2 to 24 years (mean = 11.3, SD = 5.6). Linear regression and spline models showed no significant association between time-after-death and psychological distress. Our findings suggest that time-after-death alone does not predict parental psychological distress.

探讨死后时间对因癌症失去孩子的父母心理困扰的影响。

我们对瑞士101名丧亲父母进行了横断面调查，以确定死后时间与心理困扰之间的关系。通过国家登记处确定符合条件的死亡儿童，并将其转发给前儿科肿瘤治疗中心，然后由该中心联系父母。使用简短症状量表（BSI-18）测量心理困扰。死亡后时间为2 ~ 24年（平均11.3年，SD 5.6年）。线性回归和样条模型显示死亡后时间与心理困扰之间无显著关联。我们的研究结果表明，仅凭死后时间并不能预测父母的心理困扰。
