Abstract

Background: Patients with metastatic spinal tumor are experiencing various symptoms, including neurological deficits that cause distress and affects their quality of life. The vulnerability to distress is influenced by coping strategies. Therefore, this study aimed to investigate factors associated with distress and coping strategies in patients with metastatic spinal tumors at Cipto Mangunkusumo General Hospital. Methods: In a cross-sectional study conducted at Cipto Mangunkusumo General Hospital from September 2021 to May 2022, factors associated with distress and coping strategies in patients with metastatic spinal tumors were investigated. The analysis included a total of 104 subjects from both outpatient and inpatient settings. Distress levels and areas of concern were assessed using the Distress Thermometer (DT) questionnaire while coping strategies were evaluated through the Coping Orientation to the Problem Experienced (COPE) instrument. Bivariate and multivariable analyses were carried out to assess the relationship between sociodemographic factors, spinal tumor characteristics, specific areas of concern, coping strategies, and distress.Results: The results showed that 57.7% of metastatic spinal tumor patients experienced distress. In the 18-59 age group, motor disorders, sensory disturbances, autonomic disorders, treatment status, problem-focused coping (PFC), emotion-focused coping (EFC), and avoidance coping had significant associations with distress. However, the multivariable analysis showed that EFC (OR = 1.156, 95% CI: 1.024–1.304, p=0.019), avoidance coping (OR = 1.154, 95% CI: 1.005–1.326, p=0.042), and sensory disturbance (OR = 16.001, 95% CI: 1.472–173.960, p=0.023) were identified as risk factors for distress.Conclusions: Patients with metastatic spinal tumors who used emotion-focused coping, avoidance coping, and sensory disturbance faced significant risk factors for distress

Abstract

Introduction. The elderly population is increasing globally, including in Indonesia, where 10.7% of the population in 2020 were elderly. Insomnia is a common health issue among older adults and has been identified as a predictor of depression. This study aims to identify factors associated with depressive symptoms in elderly outpatients with insomnia. Methods. This cross-sectional study was conducted in 2024 on patients aged ≥60 years at the outpatient unit of Cipto Mangunkusumo Hospital (RSCM), Jakarta, Indonesia, using consecutive sampling to select participants. Elderly patients were screened using the Pittsburgh sleep quality index (PSQI), and those with a score >5 (indicating insomnia) were included as study subjects. Data were collected through interviews, covering sociodemographic characteristics, level of loneliness, duration of insomnia, depressive symptoms [Geriatric Depression Scale–15 (GDS-15) items], functional status [Barthel Activities of Daily Living (B-ADL)], cognitive status [Mini-Mental State Examination (MMSE)], nutritional status [Mini Nutritional Assessment (MNA)], and chronic diseases [Cumulative Illness Rating Scale for Geriatrics (CIRSG) score]. Results. The study included 209 elderly subjects with insomnia, with a mean age of 72.88 (SD 6.98) years, and a depression prevalence of 6.7%. Bivariate analysis showed significant associations between dependency (PR 5.24; 95% CI 1.50 – 18.29), malnutrition (PR 11.54; 95% CI 4.77 – 27.92), and chronic disease with a CIRSG score ≥9 (PR 4.15; 95% CI 1.18 – 14.50) and depressive symptoms in elderly patients with insomnia. No significant associations were found between sociodemographic factors, loneliness, duration of insomnia, or cognitive status and depression. Multivariate logistic regression analysis revealed a statistically significant association between malnutrition and depressive symptoms (p < 0.001). Conclusions. There is a significant association between malnutrition and depressive symptoms in elderly outpatients with insomnia. Further cohort studies are recommended to explore the causal relationship between malnutrition and depression in elderly patients with insomnia.
