English abstract:

Objective To analyze the prevalence and influencing factors of mental health problems among hypertensive patients in Ya'an city five years after the Lushan earthquake， so as to provide references for promoting the mental health of hypertensive patients in earthquake-stricken areas.Methods Stratified random cluster sampling method was adopted to select 800 hypertensive patients in Ya'an city in December 2018. The general information of patients were collected via a self-designed questionnaire， and their mental health problems were assessed via the 12-item General Health Questionnaire （GHQ-12）.Then Logistic regression analysis was applied to explore the influencing factors.Result A total of 744 valid questionnaires （93.00%） were obtained， and mental health problems were detected in 79 cases （10.62%）. Univariate analysis denoted that the detection rate of mental health problems yielded statistical difference among patients of different marital status （P<0.01）， family per capita monthly income （P=0.012） and social assistance recipients （χ²=25.194， P<0.01）. Logistic regression analysis indicated that the unmarried/separated/divorced/widowed status （OR=3.879， P=0.015） and social assistance recipients （OR=4.705， P<0.01） were risk factors for mental health problems among hypertensive patients.Conclusion The detection rate of mental health problems is low among hypertensive patients in Ya'an city， while the unmarried/separated/divorced/widowed and social assistance recipients may suffer more serious mental health problems.
