The study of life quality of Republic Sakha (Yakutia) adolescents with chronic gastroduodenal pathology
Abstract
The paper presents the results of sociological, clinical and laboratory tests and instrumental surveys of adolescents with Helicobacter pyloriassociated disorders of the upper digestive tract. At the study of psycho-emotional and social characteristics of these patients we found that they had significantly low scores on all parameters of emotional, social and physical functioning (emotional status and the possibility to do their daily social responsibilities significantly worsened, adolescents coped with high physical activity, passing over one quarter, carrying heavy things significantly worse) due to severe pain present at exacerbation of chronic gastroduodenal pathology. On a background of anti H. pylori and symptomatic treatment we found increase of quality of life indexes on all scales of functioning.
