ABSTRACT

Objective To analyze the relationship between the status of anxiety and depression and activity and participation for inpa-tients with spinal cord injury (SCI). Methods From January, 2014 to June, 2016, a total of 37 inpatients with SCI were assessed by Zung Self-rating Anxiety Scale (SAS), Zung Self-rating Depression Scale (SDS), and WHO Disability Assessment Schedule 2.0 (WHO-DAS 2.0) at discharge. Results The average scores of SDA were (0.5±0.18) and SAS were (41.15±14.7) respectively. The inpatients scored (1.43± 0.82) (cognition), (3.06±1.43) (mobility), (2.47±1.11) (self-care), (2.13±0.66) (getting around), (3.68±1.32) (life activity for household and work), and (3.57±0.84) (participation) in six domains of WHO-DAS 2.0 respectively. There were severe disabilities in mobility, life activity for household and work, and participation;mild disability in cognition;and moderate disabilities in self-care and getting around. There was positive correlation between depression and functions of mobility, life activity for household and work, and participation (P<0.05). Conclu-sion Depression influences the status of activity and participation for inpatients with SCI at recovery stage.
