Abstract
ObjectiveTo explore status of quality of life of elderly patients with benign prostatic hyperplasia and analyze the influencing factors.
MethodsA total of 300 elderly patients with benign prostatic hyperplasia who were admitted to the First Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University from September 2018 to October 2019 were selected as the research subjects by the convenient sampling method. The general information questionnaire, Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia Patients Quality of Life Scale and Health Behavior Ability Self-Rating Scale were used to investigate. Pearson correlation analysis method was used to analyze the correlation between health behavior and quality of life in elderly patients with benign prostatic hyperplasia. Multiple linear regression was used to analyze the factors affecting quality of life of elderly patients with benign prostatic hyperplasia. In this study, a total of 300 questionnaires were distributed, and 289 valid questionnaires were returned. The effective response rate was 96.33%.
ResultsThe score of the Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia Patients Quality of Life Scale for 289 elderly patients with benign prostatic hyperplasia were (106.83±20.27) , and score of Health Behavior Ability Self-Rating Scale was (56.19±18.64) . Univariate analysis showed that there were statistically significant differences in scores of Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia Patients Quality of Life Scale for patients with different age, education background, marital status, family per capita monthly income, residence, disease course and other chronic diseases (P< 0.05) . The results of Pearson correlation analysis showed that the health behavior of elderly patients with benign prostatic hyperplasia was positively correlated with the quality of life (P<0.01) . The results of multiple linear regression analysis showed that educational background, healthy behavior ability and marital status were influencing factors of quality of life of elderly patients with benign prostatic hyperplasia (P<0.01) , a total of 40.4% of the total variation was explained.
ConclusionsThe quality of life of elderly patients with benign prostatic hyperplasia is not high, and the educational background, health behavior ability and marital status can affect the quality of life of patients. It is recommended that clinical nursing workers take targeted and effective measures to improve the quality of life of elderly patients with benign prostatic hyperplasia.
