[Anxiety and depression in patients with sudden sensorineural hearing loss and its influencing factors]

Abstract

Objective:To evaluate the psychological status of anxiety and depression in patients with sudden sensorineural hearing loss, and to analyze the factors that affect the occurrence of anxiety and depression. Method:A total of 198 patients with moderate and severe sudden sensorineural hearing loss were enrolled. The patients were tested by general condition questionnaire and hospital anxiety and depression scale (HADS). Patients who developed anxiety and depression were tested again using the HADS at 1 week after completion of the treatment. Result:The incidence of anxiety was 27.27% in patients with moderate and severe sudden sensorineural hearing loss, and the incidence of depression was 25.25%. The scores of anxiety and depression were statistically significant (P<0.05). The multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that the status of anxiety and depression was accompanied by symptoms and other diseases (P<0.05). There was a significant difference between the effective group, the significant efficacy group and the cured group (P<0.05). The difference between the scores before and after treatment was compared. Differences in the ineffective group compared with the other three groups, and the cured group compared with the other three groups of anxiety, depression were statistically significant. Conclusion:The problem of anxiety and depression in patients with moderate and severe sudden sensorineural hearing loss is relatively prominent, and the symptoms of anxiety and depression are obviously affected by the symptoms and other diseases. After treatment, anxiety and depression status changes significantly. In clinical practice, anxiety and depression and its influencing factors should be taken into account for the treatment of the patients with severe sudden sensorineural hearing loss.
