{"title":"IMPACT OF OPTIMISM ON POST-TRAUMATIC GROWTH OF BURN SURVIVORS: ROLE OF EMOTIONAL INTELLIGENCE, GENDER AND SEVERITY OF BURN INJURY","authors":"Hina Sultan, Umaira Abid, Amna Khawar, Muhammad Ali","doi":"10.35845/kmuj.2023.23029","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.35845/kmuj.2023.23029","url":null,"abstract":"OBJECTIVES: To examine the mediating role of emotional intelligence (EI) between optimism and post-traumatic growth (PTG) among burn survivors and to see the interaction effects of gender and nature of injury on optimism, emotional intelligence and PTG. METHODS: This descriptive correlational study was conducted from 2nd January-30th April 2022, at in-patient department of burn centers of three public hospitals of Lahore, Pakistan. Out of 250 survivors of moderate and severe burns, selected through purposive sampling strategy, 229 completed the survey via face to face or call contacts. Participants filled out three structured questionnaires along consent form. Later, collected data was analyzed through PROCESS macro v3.5 and SPSS V23.0. RESULTS: Out of 229 patients 139 (60.7%) were males and 90 (39.3%) were females. Mean age was 32.4±3.1 years. Optimism had a direct effect on emotional intelligence, emotions perception, emotions utilization, managing self-relevant emotions, managing other's emotions, and PTG, p<.0001. EI and all its subscales predicted PTG, the overall model explained 36% of variance in dependent variable, significant at R=.60, F (3,226) =151.30, p<.0001. Indirect effects of EI and subscales were found between optimism and PTG. Further, interaction effects of gender and nature of injury were seen for optimism, EI and PTG. CONCLUSION: Optimistic approaches and stimulating emotional expressions, managing self-relevant emotions, and utilization of positive emotions might help burn survivors in adapting to their trauma in the longer term. Further, both men and women reported post traumatic growth but severity of injury was affecting PTG in men and women equally.","PeriodicalId":42581,"journal":{"name":"Khyber Medical University Journal-KMUJ","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.3,"publicationDate":"2023-03-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"42662049","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

METHODS: This interventional case series study was conducted at Department of Ophthalmology, Medical Teaching Institution Lady Reading Hospital, Peshawar, Pakistan from February 2019 to January 2020. A total of 32 eyes of 32 patients were enrolled in the study after fulfilling inclusion and exclusion criteria using non-random consecutive sampling technique. All patients had pars plana vitrectomy with silicone oil done 6 months ago and were pseudophakic. Silicone oil removal was carried out in all patients and visual outcome and surgical complications assessed on 1st and 14th post-operative day. Final examination was done after six months. Statistical analysis was done by using Statistical Package for Social Sciences (version 21) by applying paired sample t-test. RESULTS: Amongst 32 patients, 20 (62.5%) were male and 12 (37.5%) were female. Age of the patients ranged from 16 to 60 years with a mean age of 35±13.97 years. Pre operatively mean best corrected visual acuity (BCVA) was 1.45±0.52 Log Mar. On the last post-operative follow up after six months mean BCVA was 1.21±0.55 Log Mar. Visual acuity improved in 24 (75%), remained stable in 3 (9.4%) and worsening in visual acuity was seen in five (15.6%) cases. Visual improvement was statistically significant (p-value 0.001) using paired t-test. Most common complications were retinal detachment (n=4: 12.5%), secondary glaucoma (n=4: 12.5%) and epi-retinal membrane (n=2; 6.3%). CONCLUSION: Vision improves in majority of pseudophakic patients after silicone oil removal.","PeriodicalId":42581,"journal":{"name":"Khyber Medical University Journal-KMUJ","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.3,"publicationDate":"2023-03-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"45304688","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
