Abstract

Abstract:

Objective

To examine the psychological and health status of patients with pulmonary nodules.

Methods

It was administered that a cross-sectional survey to adults with incidental pulmonary nodules.

Results

Through the evaluation of anxiety and depression in 178 patients with pulmonary nodules, It was found that most patients with pulmonary nodules had mild or moderate anxiety. According to the analysis of variance of IES-R score, female patients were more prone to anxiety than male patients (P=0.036). There was no significant difference in IES-R scores among other groups. Univariate logistic regression analysis showed that the larger the diameter of the nodule, the higher the degree of anxiety (P=0.041), "seeing pulmonary nodule on CT" (P=0.001) would increase the level of anxiety, if the doctor explained that "pulmonary nodule is very common" could reduce the degree of anxiety (P=0.006). Multivariate regression analysis showed that younger age (P=0.010), lower monthly income (P=0.014) and larger nodule diameter (P=0.038) were associated with higher anxiety level, "seeing pulmonary nodules on CT" could lead to higher anxiety level (P=0.002). The utility score of EQ-5D-5L was 0.9578±0.0634 The utility of EQ-5D-5L was negatively correlated with the score of IES-R (r=-0.3495, P<0.0001).

Conclusions

Female patients were more anxious than male patients. If patients have seen the pulmonary nodules on CT themselves, this can increase the anxiety levels. If a doctor has told a patient that pulmonary nodules are common before CT imaging, this can reduce the anxiety levels.

Key words: Pulmonary nodules, Anxiety, Communication, EQ-5D-5L, IES-R
