Abstract

[Objective] To explore the relationship between quality of life,coping style and social support in patients with post-stroke depression.[Methods]50 Patients with post-stroke depression(study group) and 50 Healthy volunteers(Control group) were tested with the Generic Quality of Life Inventory(GQOL),Medical Coping Questionnaire(MCMQ) and Social Support Assessment Scale(SSAS).[Results] The total score of GQOLI and physical function,mental function and social function factor scores in the observed group were significantly lower than those in the control group.In MCMQ assessment,the score of face in the observed group was significantly lower than that in the control group;while the score of submissiveness in the observed group was significantly higher than that in the control group.Total score of SSAS,objective support,ive support and utilization degree of social support scores in the observed group were significantly lower than that in the control group.The total score of GQOLI and physical function,mental function and social function factor scores were significantly positively correlated with the score of face to face of MCMQ and the total score of SSAS,objective support,ive support and utilization degree of social support scores,but they were significantly negatively correlated with the score of submissiveness of MCMQ.[Conclusion] The quality of life of the patients with post-stroke depression is poor,and it is significantly correlated with coping style and social support.
