Abstract

Background: Spinal cord injuries (SCI) are a variety of chronic diseases that various causes such as trauma may contribute to its onset. One of the problems in these patients is the problem of physical activity and, consequently, daily activities. Objectives: This study aimed to assess daily living of patients with SCI. Methods: In this descriptive cross-sectional study in 2019, 120 patients with SCI in Kermanshah were included in the study using purposive sampling. The instruments used in this study fell into two parts. One part included the demographic characteristics of the SCI patients, and the other part was a questionnaire of the rate of the Impact on Participation and Autonomy questionnaire (IPA-P). Data were analyzed by SPSS software version 16 using descriptive tests such as mean and standard deviation. Results: The result showed there was a significant relationship between demographic characteristics such as education (P < 0.007), time of spinal cord injury (P < 0.01), and income (P = 0.000). Also, the results showed there was a relationship between Autonomy and Participation, and the age of patients and their autonomy and participation decreased with age (P = 0.000, R = 0.72). Most of the patients had severe problems with daily activities. Also, most patients had very poor scores in relation to daily living activities. Conclusions: Considering the low rate of participation and autonomy in patients with SCI, it is suggested to conduct studies aimed at improving their self-care and social participation.

评价脊髓损伤患者的日常生活:克尔曼沙的一项横断面研究

背景:脊髓损伤(SCI)是多种慢性疾病，创伤等多种原因可能导致其发病。这些患者的问题之一是身体活动的问题，因此，日常活动。目的:本研究旨在评估脊髓损伤患者的日常生活。方法:在2019年的这项描述性横断面研究中，采用目的抽样的方法将120例Kermanshah的SCI患者纳入研究。本研究使用的仪器分为两部分。其中一部分是脊髓损伤患者的人口学特征，另一部分是参与和自主影响问卷(IPA-P)的调查问卷。数据分析采用SPSS软件16版，采用均值和标准差等描述性检验。结果:受教育程度(P < 0.007)、脊髓损伤时间(P < 0.01)、收入(P = 0.000)与人口统计学特征有显著相关。自主性和参与性之间存在相关关系，患者年龄与自主性和参与性随年龄的增长而降低(P = 0.000, R = 0.72)。大多数患者在日常活动方面存在严重问题。此外，大多数患者在日常生活活动方面得分很低。结论:鉴于脊髓损伤患者参与率和自主性较低，建议开展旨在提高其自我保健和社会参与水平的研究。
