Psychological status of patients with amputation injury and effects of psychological interventions based on magnetic resonance imaging and X-ray characteristics.

Abstract

To explore the psychological status of patients with amputation injury and to evaluate the effects of psychological interventions based on magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and X-ray characteristics. Two hundred patients admitted from June 2016 to May 2019 were randomly assigned into control and observation groups (n=100). Routine care was performed for both groups, based on which observation group was given psychological interventions. Coping style, compliance to examinations, mental stress, degree of perceived control, degree of anxiety, degree of depression, incidence rate of adverse events, and satisfaction with nursing services were compared. After interventions, the score of positive coping, score of compliance to examinations and Control Attitudes Scale-Revised (CAS-R) score were significantly higher, whereas the score of negative coping, Chinese perceived stress scale (CPSS) score, self-rating anxiety scale (SAS) score and self-rating depression scale (SDS) score were lower in observation group than those in control group. The score of positive coping, score of compliance to examinations and CAS-R score were significantly elevated, while the score of negative coping, CPSS score, SAS score and SDS score reduced in both groups (p<0.05). The satisfaction rate was significantly higher in observation group than that in control group (p<0.05). The incidence rate of these adverse events was significantly lower in observation group than that in control group (p<0.05). Psychological interventions before MRI and X-ray examinations are conducive to adjustment of the mental state of patients receiving replantation of a severed limb, thus improving the compliance to examinations, completion rate and image quality.
