ABSTRACT

Measuring health-related quality of life (HRQOL) is an essential complement to medical evaluation. However, few studies of this type have been conducted in Morocco. This study aims to develop normative data for the SF-36 and analyse the HRQOL according to gender and age in the population of Tetouan city, Morocco. The SF-36 was administered to a sample selected by quotas containing 385 subjects aged over 16 years living in Tetouan. Comparisons of means were done to determine the significance of differences. The study population perceived mental health to be worse than physical health. Men presented significantly higher mean scores than women for all domains of the SF-36. Perceived health, especially physical health, declines with age, and so participants over the age of 55years recorded a poor perception of their health in the majority of domains measured. The results highlight the vulnerability of the two groups: women and the elderly.

ABSTRACT

يعتبر قياس جودة الحياه المرتبطة بالصحة مكملا اساسيا للتقييم الطبي بيد أنه لم تجر سوى دراسات قليله من هذا النمط في المغرب وتهدف هذه الدراسه الى اعداد بيانات معياريه لاستبيان SF-36 وتحليل جودة الحياه المرتبطة بالصحة وفقا للنوع والسن لدى سكان مدينة تطوان بالمغرب فقد اعطى الـ SF- 36 لعينه اختيرت بموجب الحصص النسبيه تضم 385 شخصا تزيد اعمارهم عن 16 عاما يعيشون في تطوان واجريت مقارنات بين المتوسطات لتحديد دلاله الفروق فرأت عينه الدراسه ان الصحه النفسيه اسوأ من الصحه البدنيه وكانت متوسطات الدرجات التي منحها الرجال لكافة مجالات الـ SD-36 اعلي بكثير من تلك التي منحتها لها النساء وبما أن الاحساس بالصحه وخاصة الصحه البدنيه يتراجع مع تقدم السن فقد سجل المشاركون الذين تزيد اعمارهم على 55 عاما تصورا سيئا عن حالتهم الصحيه في معظم المجالات التي جرى قياسها فهذه النتائج تسلط الضوء على هشاشه هاتين الفئتين النساء وكبار السن


La mesure de la qualité de vie en relation avec la santé (QVRS) est un complément essentiel à l'évaluation médicale. Cependant, peu d’études en ce sens ont été réalisées au Maroc. Ce travail vise à déterminer les données normatives du questionnaire d’évaluation de la santé perçue Short Form-36 Health Survey(SF-36) et d'analyser la QVRS selon le sexe et l'âge chez la population de la ville de Tétouan au nord du Maroc. Le questionnaire SF-36 a été administré chez un échantillon choisi par quotas qui comprenait 385 sujets de plus de 16 ans vivant dans la ville de Tétouan au nord du Maroc. Les comparaisons des moyennes ont été effectuées pour déterminer la significativité des différences. La population étudiée perçoit sa santé psychique moins bien que sa santé physique. Les hommes ont obtenu des scores significativement plus élevés que les femmes pour tous lesdomaines du SF-36. La santé perçue, et en particulier physique, décline avec l’âge ; c’est ainsi que les personnes âgées de plus de 55 ans ont une mauvaise perception de la majorité des domaines mesurés. Ces résultats mettent en évidence la vulnérabilité de ces deux groupes : les femmes et les personnes âgées.
