Life Quality of Patients with Viral Hepatitis and Cirrhosis
Abstract
The WHO‐100 questionnaire helps on researching the quality of life the of hepatitis and cirrhosis patients.
Research objective: to assess the quality of life (QoL) of chronic viral hepatitis (CHV) and cirrhosis (C) patients.
Due to the questionnaire there were examined 15 patients with CHV and C.
It is stated that chronic viral hepatitis reduces the quality of life on spiritual sphere, and the quality of life of cirrhosis patients were lower on all spheres (physical, mental, social and spiritual).
Therefore, rehabilitation activities must be not only medical, but also of psychological and sociocultural orientation. The “WHOQoL‐100” questionnaire can be used as additional tool for estimating severity and also effectiveness of carried out medical and rehabilitation activities.
