Abstract

Aim: No other studies investigated fatigue, sleep, physical activity, and kinesiophobia in individuals with hypertension. The present study aimed to investigate the effect of SARS-CoV2 disease on fatigue, sleep, physical activity, and kinesiophobia in individuals with systemic hypertension.
Materials and Methods: A prospective cross-sectional study was carried out with a total of 99 people with hypertension, including 53 of them with SARS-CoV2 disease history. Patients were evaluated with the “International Physical Activity Questionnaire Short Form (IPAQ-SF), Fatigue Severity Scale (FSS), Tampa Scale of Kinesiophobia for Heart (TSK Heart), and Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI)”.
Results: People with hypertension in the SARS-CoV2 positive group had a significantly higher moderate PA sub score of the IPAQ (Metabolic Equivalent of Task (MET) minutes per week) (p=0.014). Besides, the FSS scores of SARS-CoV2 positive patients were significantly higher (p=0.019). FSS was moderately associated with TSK Heart and PSQI (r1=0.575, r2=0.654, respectively). TSK Heart was moderately correlated with moderate PA sub score of the IPAQ and IPAQ-Total score (r1=-0.394, r2=-0.436, respectively).
Conclusion: SARS-CoV2 was found to be responsible for fatigue in people with hypertension. Kinesiophobia was related with both total and moderate PA in COVID-19 positive hypertension patients. Besides, fatigue was correlated with kinesiophobia and sleep quality.

Abstract

Amaç: Hipertansiyonlu bireylerde yorgunluk, uyku, fiziksel aktivite ve kinezyofobiyi araştıran başka bir çalışmaya rastlanmamıştır. Bu çalışma, sistemik hipertansiyonu olan bireylerde SARS-CoV2 hastalığının yorgunluk, uyku, fiziksel aktivite ve kinezyofobi üzerindeki etkisini araştırmayı amaçlamıştır.
Gereç ve Yöntem: 53'ü SARS-CoV2 hastalık öyküsü olan hipertansiyonlu toplam 99 kişi ile prospektif kesitsel bir çalışma yapıldı. Hastalar “Uluslararası Fiziksel Aktivite Anketi Kısa Formu (UFAA-KF), Yorgunluk Şiddet Ölçeği (YŞÖ), Tampa Kalp için Kinezyofobi Skalası (TKKS) ve Pittsburgh Uyku Kalitesi İndeksi (PUKİ)” ile değerlendirildi.
Bulgular: SARS-CoV2 pozitif gruptaki bireyler, UFAA-KF'nin orta-şiddetli fiziksel aktivite skorunda anlamlı derecede daha az puana sahipti (p=0,014). Ayrıca SARS-CoV2 pozitif hastaların YŞÖ skorları anlamlı olarak daha yüksekti (p=0,019). YŞÖ, TKKS ve PUKİ ile orta derecede ilişkiliydi (r1=0,575, r2=0,654). TKKS, UFAA-KF'nin orta dereceli fiziksel aktivite ve UFAA-Toplam puanı ile orta derecede korele idi (r1=-0,394, r2=-0,436).
Sonuç: SARS-CoV2'nin hipertansiyonlu kişilerde yorgunluktan sorumlu olduğu sonucuna varıldı. Kinezyofobi, COVID-19'lu hipertansiyon hastalarında fiziksel aktivite (orta şiddetli ve toplam skor için) ile ilişkiliydi. Ayrıca yorgunluk, kinezyofobi ve uyku kalitesi ile ilişkiliydi.
