Abstract

Objective To explore the effect of living mode on quality of life and life satisfaction of patients with spinal cord injury who survived Tangshan earthquake. Methods From February to May, 2016, 76 patients with spinal cord injury survived the earthquake were investigated, among whom 38 patients lived in the nursing home or rehabilitation village and the other 38 patients discretely lived at home. Their quality of life and life satisfaction were assessed with WHO Quality of Life-BREF (WHOQOL-BREF) and Life Satisfaction Assessment respectively. Results The scores of physical, psychological, social adaptation and environment field in WHOQOL-BREF were significantly higher in the concentrated living group than in the scattered living group (t>8.97, P<0.001), as well as the life satisfaction (t=6.55, P<0.001). Conclusion The concentrated living mode could improve the quality of life and life satisfaction of the patients with spinal cord injury survived Tangshan earthquake.
