| Introduction:Self-rated health (SRH) is a recognised toolfor predicting morbidity and mortality.Aim:The aim of the study was to investigate and com-pare SRH in a group of mothers of hospitalised childrenand mothers of healthy children and to indicate the vari-ables associated with poor SRH in both groups.Methods:We conducted questionnaire-based cross-sec-tional research in a group of 184 women. Half of therespondents (n=92) were the mothers of children hospi-talised for a severe illnesses (Group H). The control group(n=92) comprised mothers of healthy children (GroupC). Self-Rated Health (SRH), Numerical Rating Scale(NRS), Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (HADS),Impact of Event Scale-Revised (IES-R) and InterpersonalSupport Evaluation List (ISEL-40 v. GP) were used. Inorder to facilitate critical appraisal and interpretation ofresults, STROBE recommendations were used. Results:The prevalence of poor SRH was greater in moth-ers of children hospitalised for a severe illness than inthose of healthy children (35 and 19%, respectively). Inboth groups, the risk of poor SRH was statistically signifi-cantly higher in those mothers who for the past 7 daysreported at least moderate pain and in mothers whomanifested anxiety symptoms. In both groups, the preva-lence of poor SRH was statistically significantly lower ifthe respondents’ children were in good health. The riskof poor SRH was associated with poor financial status ingroup H and with depression and at least moderate painfor the past 7 days in group C.Relevance to clinical practice:In order to provide mothers ofseverely ill children with high-quality health care includ-ing preventive measures, it is recommended that theirhealth is assessed by healthcare professionals. |
