Abstract
Objectives: The aim of this study was to translate the official Sarcopenia Quality of Life questionnaire into Croatian language so that it is understandable for patients to answer it, after which we obtained the answers to assess further on how sarcopenia affects their lives through 7 different domains. Materials and methods: The translated SarQoL questionnaire was given to 51 patient, all of whom were older than 65 and had a diagnosis of sarcopenia according to the European Working Group on... More Sarcopenia in Older People (EWGSOP). Diagnoses were verified by medical record review collected from archives of the Department of Clinical Immunology and Rheumatology, University Hospital Split. Results: After the performed testing it has been established that there is a higher level of „Locomotion“ (p<0.001) and a higher level of „Daily living activities“ (p<0.001) amongst female patients. „Leisure activities“ has moderate quality (p=0.505), while „Physical and mental health“ (p<0.001), „Body composition“ (p<0.001), and „Functionality“ (p<0.001) have a low level of development. On the other hand, among male patients, there is a high level of developed „Locomotion“ (p<0.001) and „Daily living activities“ (p<0.001). However, „Physical and mental health“ (p<0.001), „Body composition“ (p=0.003), „Functionality“ (p<0.001) and „Leisure activities“ (p=0.031) are on a low level of development. Male patients were showed statistically more common with „Fear that you might not be able to“ , while female patients most commonly showed to have „Fear of feeling tired after these activities“ (p<0.001). Conclusions: The SarQoL questionnaire was translated successfully, and was understood and solved by patients without difficulties. The obtained results showed us that sarcopenia indeed decreases and causes difficulties in the quality of every day life for patients that are diagnosed with sarcopenia. Less
Abstract (croatian)
Ciljevi: Prevesti službeni SarQoL upitnik na hrvatski jezik kako bi bio razumljiv za pacijente koji ga ispunjavaju u svrhu istraživanja, a nakon čega ćemo iskoristiti dobivene odgovore te ih provesti kroz 7 domena kako bi ustvrdili kako sarkopenija utječe na kvalitetu života. Materijali i metode: U ispunjavanju prevedenoga SarQoL upitnika je sudjelovao 51 pacijent, koji je imao/la najmanje 65 godina te koji je imao/la dijagnozu sarkopenije prema pravilima koje nalaže Europska radna skupina... More za sarkopeniju kod osoba starije dobi (EWGSOP). Dijagnoze sarkopenije su ovjerene provjerom medicinskih zapisa iz arhive Odjela kliničke imunologije i reumatologije, KBC Split. Rezultati: Nakon provedenog testiranja utvrđeno je da među pacijenticama postoji viša razina lokomotornosti (p<0,001) i aktivnosti dnevnog življenja (p<0,001). Ležerna aktivnost je umjereno kvalitetna (p=0,505), dok je fizičko i mentalno zdravlje (p<0,001), sastav tijela (p<0,001), te funkcionalnost (p<0,001) na niskoj razini razvijenosti. Među muškim pacijentima postoji visoka razina razvijenosti lokomotornosti (p<0,001), te aktivnosti dnevnog življenja (p<0,001). Ipak, fizičko i mentalno zdravlje (p<0,001), sastav tijela (p=0,003), funkcionalnost (p<0,001) i ležerne aktivnosti (p=0,031) su na niskoj razini razvijenosti. Statistički su muški pacijenti izrazili strah najčešće pod izjavom “Imam strah kako neću moći izvršiti neku radnju”, dok su pacijentice najčešće birale tvrdnju “Strah me osjećaja umora nakon obavljanja tih navedenih radnji”. Zaključci: SarQoL upitnik je uspješno preveden te je bio razumljiv i rješen bez ikakvih problema od strane pacijenata koji su sudjelovali. Dobiveni rezultati su nam pokazali kako sarkopenija uistinu stvara poteškoće i umanjuje kvalitetu svakodnevnog života pacijentima koji su dijagnosticirani sa sarkopenijom. Less
