摘要
Objective Like most chronic illnesses, childhood asthma has a significant impact on the child's overall psychosocial well-being. Psychosocial disorders occur in children with uncontrolled asthma making their asthma control more difficult. We aimed to determine the prevalence and determinants of psychosocial disorders in children and adolescents with asthma. Methods A comparative cross-sectional study of children and adolescents (aged 6 to 17 years with and without asthma) was conducted in a Nigerian tertiary health facility. The Revised Children Manifest Anxiety Scale (RCMAS) and Center for Epidemiological Studies-Depression Scale for Children (CES-DC) were used to screen for anxiety and depression respectively. Results A total of 190 (95 asthma and 95 non-asthma) children were studied. Anxiety occurred in 15 (15.8%) of asthma and four (4.2%) of non-asthma children, OR 95% CI =4.3 (1.4-13.4). Forty-five (47.4%) of asthma and 32 (33.7%) of non-asthma children had depression (OR 95% CI =1.8 (0.9-3.2). Asthma was significantly associated with social problems such as difficulty in making friends (OR 95% CI = 58.5 (3.5-979.9); restriction from daily activities (OR 95% CI =34.0 (2.0-578.5); stigma from peers (OR 95% CI = 18.6 (1.1-326.2); and strengthened and overprotective relationship with parents, (OR 95% CI = 26.0 (1.5-447.8). Poor asthma control was significantly associated with restriction from play, OR (95%CI) = 0.12 (0.04-0.32); anxiety, OR 95%CI = 18.26 (3.80-87.76) and depression, OR 95%CI = 4.57 (1.85-11.33). Conclusions Children with asthma are more prone to psychosocial disorders than their non-asthma counterparts. Poor asthma control influenced the psychosocial well-being of children with asthma negatively.
