Objective To investigate the current situation and influencing factors of self-compassion in patients recovering from moderate to severe burns.Methods A total of 286 cases of moderate and severe burns during the convalescent admitted to the First Affiliated Hospital of Nanyang Medical College from January 2020 to December 2022 were selected as the study objects by the convenient sampling method,including 159 males and 127 females,aged 18-60 years.General information questionnaire,Self-Compassion Scale(SCS),Experiences in Close Relationship Scale-Short Form(ECR-S),and Social Support Rating Scale(SSRS)were used to investigate.Independent sample t test,one-way analysis of variance,Pearson correlation analysis,and multiple linear regression analysis were used.Results The scores of self-compassion,attachment anxiety,attachment avoidance,and social support were(61.25±10.52),(76.14±5.59),(69.02±5.43),and(35.29±5.29)points in the 286 patients recovering from moderate to severe burns.The scores of attachment anxiety and attachment avoidance were negatively correlated with the score of self-compassion(r=-0.316 and-0.332,both P<0.05),while the score of social support was positively correlated with the score of self-compassion(r=0.325,P<0.05).Multiple linear regression analysis showed that marital status,family per capita monthly income,educational background,daily living ability,attachment anxiety,attachment avoidance,and social support were the main factors affecting self-compassion(all P<0.05),accounting for 33.2%of the total variation.Conclusions The self-compassion in patients with moderate and severe burns in the convalescent period is generally at a moderate and low level.Medical staff should attach importance to the assessment of patients'self-compassion ability,and formulate targeted interventions based on.self-compassion building factors and influencing factors,so as to effectively meet the patients'individual health needs,improve their daily life ability,improve their self-compassion level,and ultimately improve their mental health level and promote the prognosis.
