Effects of resilience on posttraumatic growth in patients with refractory secondary hyperparathyroidism: the mediating role of hope / 中国实用护理杂志

ABSTRACT

Objective:To investigate the mediating effect of hope on resilience and post traumatic growth (PTG) in patients with refractory secondary hyperparathyroidism (rSHPT).Methods:It was convenient to select rSHPT patients and non-refractory SHPT patients who received maintenance hemodialysis treatment in China-Japan Friendship Hospital from September 2018 to September 2021. Totally 495 patients with rSHPT and 1 295 patients with mild secondary hyperparathyroidism (SHPT) were surveyed by the Chinese Version of The Herth Hope Scale, the Chinese version of the Connor-Davidson Resilience Scale and the Post Traumatic Growth Rating Scale (PTGI). After matching according to the 1∶1 Propensity Score Matching (PSM), 436 cases were set in each of the two groups. The differences of hope, resilience and PTG scores between the two groups were compared. Pearson correlation analysis was used to analyze the correlation between hope, resilience and total score of PTG in rSHPT group. Regression analysis and SPSS Process mediation Model 4 were used to test the mediating effect of hope on resilience and PTG.Results:The hope score (32.16 ± 4.15), psychological resilience score (61.22 ± 14.38), and the PTG score (52.34 ± 18.92) of rSHPT patients was significantly lower than 33.41 ± 2.97 ( t=-5.72, P<0.05), 63.19 ± 7.25 ( t=-2.77, P<0.05), 57.95 ± 10.07 ( t=-6.34, P<0.05) of SHPT patients. There was a positive correlation between hope, resilience and PTG score ( r=0.671, 0.488, 0.523, all P<0.01). Regression analysis showed that resilience could positively predict PTG ( β=0.518, P<0.01). Psychological resilience positively predicted hope ( β=0.188, P<0.01). Resilience ( β=0.204, P =0.002) and hope ( β=1.442, P<0.01) could positively predict PTG. Hope played a partial mediating role in the relationship between resilience and PTG, and the mediating effect accounted for 60.23%. Conclusions:rSHPT patients generally had lower levels of hope, resilience and PTG. Resilience can affect PTG directly or indirectly through hope. Medical staff should improve the resilience and hope level of patients with rSHPT through positive psychological intervention measures, so as to enhance the positive promoting effect of psychological resilience on PTG.
