The Quantification and Clinical Analysis of Depression and Anxiety in Patients Undergoing Da Vinci Robot-assisted Radical Gastrectomy and Open Radical Gastrectomy

The purpose of paper is to investigate the depression and anxiety as well as independent influential factors between patients who underwent Da Vinci robot-assisted radical gastrectomy and radical gastrectomy. This study is a partially randomized patient preference trial. A total of 98 patients with gastric cancer were divided into the Da Vinci robot-assisted radical gastrectomy group (46 patients, observation group) and open radical gastrectomy group (52 patients, control group). They were also postoperatively and preoperatively measured with Self-Rating Depression Scale (SDS) and Self-Rating Anxiety Scale (SAS). The postoperative and preoperative data of each group were compared. The postoperative and preoperative standard scores of SDS and SAS in patients with the observation group were NS differences (P > 0.05). In the conventional control group, the postoperative mean scores of SDS and SAS were significantly higher than those in the preoperative mean scores and the postoperative mean scores of the observation group, respectively (P < 0.01). The multivariate logistic regression analysis indicated that the independent influential factors of depression and anxiety in patients with radical gastrectomy included tumor, node, metastases stage, pain grading, other postoperative complications and postoperative insomnia (P < 0.05). Robot-assisted radical gastrectomy for gastric carcinoma is conductive to relieving patients' anxiety and depression and improving their quality of life due to the advantages of relatively low incidence of pain, reduced complications and relatively good sleep.
