Correlation between stigma and family APGAR in elderly patients with benign prostatic hyperplasia
Objective To investigate the status quo of stigma and family APGAR in elderly patients with benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH),analyze the influencing factors of stigma,and explore the relationship between family APGAR and stigma. Methods A totla of 158 elderly patients with benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) who were hospitalized in the First Affiliated Hospital of Anhui Medical University from March to December 2022 were selected as the research subjects,and were investigated by general situation questionnaire,social impact scale (SIS) and family APGAR (adaptation,partnership,growth,affection,resolve) index questionnaire. Results The scores of stigma and family APGAR in elderly patients with BPH were (53.89±4.93) and (7.43±1.27),respectively,which were negatively correlated (r=-0.914,P<0.001). In univariate analysis,there were statistically significant differences in age,occupation,education level,monthly income,indwelling catheter,medical insurance type and previous medical visits (P<0.05). Hierarchical regression analysis showed that family APGAR can independently explain 25.0％ of the total variation of stigma. Conclusion Elderly patients with BPH have a moderate level of stigma,which is influenced by many factors. Family APGAR can negatively predict the stigma,so targeted intervention measures should be taken to promote the physical and mental rehabilitation of patients.
