目的：评估神经源性肠的严重程度和健康相关的生活质量的人与不同程度的脊髓injure.Design的关系：横断面。主题：共128人与脊髓injure.Methods：两份问卷邮寄。一项包括人口统计学特征和神经源性肠功能障碍评分，以评估神经源性肠功能障碍的严重程度。另一个是一个简短的36项健康调查，评估生活质量的人与脊髓injuries.Results：大约一半的人与脊髓损伤（46.9%）有中度至重度的神经源性肠功能障碍，其严重程度与身体功能和身体成分的健康相关的生活质量的汇总评分。结果还表明，更严重的神经系统分类导致身体功能受损和身体疼痛的身体成分综合评分较低。受伤后的时间长短与健康相关的生活质量之间没有相关性。人与更严重的神经源性肠道条件也被发现更有可能接受康复therapy.Conclusion：神经源性肠功能障碍与健康相关的生活质量的表达在脊髓损伤的人，特别是在身体功能和身体成分的总结。
Objective: To assess the relationship between the severity of neurogenic bowel and health-related quality of life in persons with various degrees of spinal cord injury.Design: Cross-sectional.Subjects: A total of 128 people with spinal cord injury.Methods: Two questionnaires were sent out by post. One included demographic characteristics and a neurogenic bowel dysfunction score to evaluate the severity of neurogenic bowel dysfunction. The other was a Short-Form 36-Item Health Survey that evaluated the quality of life in persons with spinal cord injury.Results: Approximately half of the persons with spinal cord injury (46.9%) had moderate to severe degrees of neurogenic bowel dysfunction, the severity of which was associated with the physical functioning and physical component summary score in health-related quality of life. The results also showed that more severe neurological classifications led to lower physical component summary scores for impaired physical function and bodily pain. There was no correlation between the length of time elapsed since injury and health-related quality of life. Persons with more severe neurogenic bowel conditions were also found to be more likely to receive rehabilitative therapy.Conclusion: Neurogenic bowel dysfunction is associated with health-related quality of life expression in persons with spinal cord injury, especially in physical functioning and physical component summary.
