| Popis: | 本研究は,患者のQOLの面より局所温熱療法の効果の評価することを目的とした。アンケートは,厚生省「がん薬物療法におけるQOL調査票」を使用し,外来通院している進行癌患者16名を対象に,2度時期を変え行った。対象者の年齢は26～78歳(平均61.6±15.1歳)で,男女比は11対5であった。アンケートは内容を活動性,身体状況,精神・心理状況,社会性に分け,t検定にて分析を行った。分析の結果,活動性,身体状況,社会性では有意差は認められず効果ははっきりしなかった。精神・心理状況では,有意差を認めQOLの向上に効果を認めた。末期癌患者にとって局所温熱療法が精神・心理面に良好な影響を及ぼすことが示唆された。 The purpose of this study is to assess the effect of locoregional hyperthermia on Quality of Life (QOL) of patients. We used "the QOL questionnaire for Cancer Patients Treated with Anticancer Drugs (QOL-ACD)" made by the Ministry of Public Welfare. The questionnaire was conducted twice on 16 out patients in case of advanced cancer. The patients consisted of 11 males and 5 females and their ages ranged from 26 to 78 years old (the average age was 61.6±15.1). Most of them treated with neo adjuvant therapy. The questionnaire covered four major categories, (1) daily activity, (2) physical condition, (3) mental and psychological status and (4) social activities. Statistical analysis were performed using the student t-test. The results were as follows : there was no difference between pretreatment and posttreatment in three major categories, namely, daily activity, physical condition and social activity. But the difference of mental and psychological status between the treatments proved statistically significant (p 8 KJ00004297665 P 原著 Original Paper |
