Purpose: The purpose of this study was to examine the degree of Health-Related Quality of Life (HRQoL), and determinethe effect of Urinary Incontinence (UI) on HRQoL in patients after prostatectomy.
Methods: The participants were 110adults who had undergone radical prostatectomies at Severance Hospital in Seoul, Korea. The data of this crosssectionalstudy were collected between April 10, 2015, and June 12, 2015. The questionnaire included demographicand disease-related characteristics, the International Consultation on Incontinence Questionnaire-Short Form(ICIQ-SF), and the King’s Health Questionnaire (KHQ). Descriptive statistics and multiple linear regression were used.
Results: The mean age was 66.27±7.24 years. The mean score of HRQoL was 47.37 (range 0~100). The lowest-rankeddomains were “physical limitations” (M=51.21) and “role limitations” (M=49.85). The HRQoL was significantly differentaccording to the number of post-operative day. HRQoL was significantly correlated with UI, and was affected by UI. Theregression model of this study accounted for 70% of the HRQoL.
Conclusion: UI might influence HRQoL in patients afterprostatectomy. Nursing interventions with special consideration of UI are needed to improve their HRQoL.
