Abstract

In press

OsteoArthrosis (OA) is the most common joint disease in many populations and one of the main causes of incapacity for work among citizens of Ukraine, which usually manifests itself in people over 40 years of age. Therefore, the problem of OA has gained special importance and relevance due to its significant prevalence, rapid development of functional disorders and disability of people of different ages. Using the screening method, it was found that every second patient with a chronic disease of internal organs has OA, therefore the attention of scientists is focused on the issues of comorbidity and its influence on the course of the disease and the patient's satisfaction with the Quality of Life (QoL). A survey was conducted of 100 patients at the rheumatology department of the Chernivtsi city Clinical Hospital No.3, and 30 Practically Healthy Persons (PHP), who were given MOS SF-36 questionnaires (Medical Outcome Study Short Form-36) and KOOS (Knee injury and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score), in which patients had to answer questions based on their own thoughts and feelings about the questions asked. The results of the SF-36 survey indicate a significant decrease in indicators of the physical and psychological components of health in all groups of patients compared to PHP. These indicators are also significantly reduced in patients with arterial hypertension and with hypertension and type 2 diabetes compared to isolated OA. Evaluation of the results of the KOOS questionnaire indicated functional incapacity and expressed dissatisfaction with the quality of life. Based on the results of the study, a conclusion was made about the negative impact of concomitant pathology on the physical and psychological components of health and the need for routine use of the MOS SF-36 and KOOS questionnaires for early detection of QoL deterioration and for timely provision of necessary medical care.

Keywords: comorbidity, quality of life, SF-36, KOOS, osteoarthritis.
