| description | Introduction: Functional dyspepsia and digestive disorders are
common, debilitating and costly. Little information is available
about the role of stress management in terms of cognitivebehavioral
treatment of dyspepsia. The purpose of this study
was to investigate the effectiveness of cognitive-behavioral stress
management on functional dyspepsia symptoms in patients who
referred to digestion clinics in Ahvaz.
Methods: This was a quasi-experimental study, using pretest,
post-test and follow-up with control group. The sample
size was decided according to availability. For this purpose, 30
patients were selected using Rome-III diagnostic criteria with
diagnosis of functional dyspepsia. They were divided with block
randomization into two experimental and control groups (Each
with 15 subjects). The experimental group received 10 sessions of
cognitive behavioral stress management. But, the control group
did not receive any intervention. Two groups were assessed at
post-test and follow-up after the intervention. Data collection in
this study was based on the NDI index. All subjects completed
the NDI index for evaluating dyspeptic symptoms in the pre-test
phase. At the end of interventions and post-test phase, both groups
completed the NDI index. Also, all subjects completed a month
after the end of the the NDI index in order to follow the effects of
treatment. After the follow-up, the data were analyzed using the
SPSS 14 and univariate analysis of variance. The significance level
was considered p<0.05.
Results: The result of this study showed that there were significant
differences between the experimental and control groups in terms
of functional dyspepsia in the post-test (p=0.000). Also, there
were significant differences between the experimental and control
groups in terms of functional dyspepsia in the follow-up (p=0.000).
Conclusion: The results of the present study suggest that
cognitive-behavioral stress management strategies are effective
in reducing symptoms in patients with functional dyspepsia.
So, cooperation among gastroenterologists, psychologists and
psychiatrists can have positive effects on these patients. |
