Abstract:
The need to study the psychological picture of patients with chronic disease, is determined by the fact that the patient's attitude to their disease affects the course of the disease and success in treatment. A modern feature of the course of chronic diseases is polymorbidity (i.e., the multiplicity of diseases in one patient), therefore, the presence of concomitant diseases, especially the chronic form, lead to the syndrome of mutual aggravation.
The Purpose:
study the types of attitudes and internal picture of the disease of patients with type 2 diabetes.
Methods:
The study involved 100 people aged 21 to 80 years, 47 men and 53 women diagnosed with type 2 diabetes. To determine the types of attitude to the disease and study the internal picture of the disease, we used a personal questionnaire from the Bekhterev Institute (LOBI). Among the patients we surveyed, 8.5% of men and 9.4% of women were diagnosed with the hypochondriac type. The sensitive type was observed in 8.5% of men and 7.5% of women surveyed. The main feature alopaticos the type of care from illness to work. In our case, this is 10.6% of male patients and 5.7% of women. 13.2% of women and 2.1% of men surveyed are paranoid. In 15% of cases, we noted the melancholic type in men. 5.7% of women surveyed are euphoric. Of all the respondents, only 6.4% of the men surveyed are of the harmonic type. 6.4% of men and 9.4% of women were identified as having an anxiety type.
Conclusion:
It is well known that any disease is accompanied by more or less serious changes in the patient's psyche. And it is during this period that patients urgently need the support of their relatives and friends. Therefore, in the process of treating the disease, an important aspect is not only drug therapy, but also the emotional mood of the patient.
