Therefore, social support is crucial for the care of people with HF. Loss of social support might lead to mental health problems like anxiety disorder and depression. Aim: This research aimed to evaluation of the relationship between social support and depression in the elderly with heart failure Methods: The study sample comprised 112 elderly people who visited the cardiology clinic and polyclinic of a university hospital in Izmir/Turkey. Data were collected by using the "Introductory Information Questionnaire", "Multidimensional Scale for Perceived Social Support" and "Geriatric Depression Scale-Short Form". Results: The average age of elderly was 71.34±7.18 years. The mean value for geriatric depression scale-short form and total multidimensional scale for perceived social support was 8.90±3.80 and 51.06±10.87, respectively. No significant correlation was found between the perceived social support and the level of depression (r=-0.02, p>0.05). Depending on whether they lived together or not (p<0.03) and on the heart failure functional class (p<0.01), a significant difference was found in the distribution of the mean value of the total geriatric depression scale-short form. Conclusion: The study suggests that the mean value of depression is at a level adequate for a diagnosis of depression, the level of perceived social support is on a moderate level and that there is no significant relationship between perceived social support and the mean value of depression. pubtype: Academic Journal doctype: research tables/charts Journal Article ougenre: Article language: English refInfo: holdings: @attributes: islocal: N |
