Objectives: To evaluate the frequency of psychosocial problems and the factors affecting the quality of life in children and adolescents aged between 8 and 18 years with type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM). Methods: In the study, children and adolescents aged between 8 and 18 years who had been followed for at least 6 months for T1DM were evaluated (T1DM group), and compared with healthy children and adolescents who applied to the general pediatric outpatient clinic and did not have any chronic disease (control group). Data on disease follow-up of children and adolescents with T1DM were obtained from medical records. Sociodemographic characteristics of both groups were recorded in the study form. In addition, the Children's Depression Inventory (CDI), Screen for Child Anxiety Related Disorders (SCARED) and Children Quality of Life Questionnaire (KINDL: KINDerLebensqualitätsfragebogen) were applied to both groups. The scale scores of the T1DM group and the control group were compared. Factors affecting the scale scores of the T1DM group were evaluated. Results: A total of 181 children or adolescents, 81 of whom were in the T1DM group and 100 in the control group, were evaluated for this study. The mean age was 13.1±2.4 years in the T1DM group and 12.4±2.1 years in the control group. The mean CDI, SCARED, and KINDL scores, respectively; it was 15.3±7.2, 23.6±11.9, and 53.5±13.7 in the T1DM group and 7.9±6.8, 14.7±13, 60±11.6 in the control group. There was a statistically significant difference between the two groups in terms of mean CDI, SCARED, and KINDL scores (all p values <0.001). As compliance with the diabetic diet decreased at home, there was a significant increase in the mean CDI score (p=0.005) and a significant decrease in the KINDL score (p=0.002). It was observed that KINDL score decreased signifi- cantly as compliance with the diabetic diet decreased outside the home (p=0.001). Conclusion: Quality of life is lower, and levels of depression and anxiety are higher in children with T1DM compared to healthy children. Psychosocial support should be provided from the moment of diagnosis in order to improve the psychosocial problems and quality of life of children with T1DM. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
