BUNĂSTĂREA PSIHO-EMOȚIONALĂ AL PACIENȚILOR CU LIMFOAME NON-HODGKIN

Abstract

The given study focuses on the evaluation of the psycho-emotional well-being of patients with non-Hodgkin’s lymphomas (NHL) according to age, gender, living environment, morphological subtype, stage, primary tumor focus, Charlson comorbidities index, and completion of first-line chemotherapy treatment. To carry out the study, a number of 126 patients aged between 18 and 78 years, included in the treatment and monitored in the Department of Hematology, IMSP Oncological Institute, during the years 2020-2022, were selected. The Global Well Being (GWB) score was used to test the proposed hypotheses. The results illustrate statistically significant correlations between GWB score and gender, living environment, extranodal onset, and treatment period. The lack of statistically significant correlations was appreciated between the GWB score and age, disease stage, comorbidities.
