About this study

Official title: Exploring the Impact of Illness Perceptions, Coping Strategies on Quality of Life in Paroxysmal Atrial Fibrillation Patients

Background: quality of life is impaired in patients with paroxysmal atrial fibrillation. The purpose of this study is to explore the mediating effects of self-efficacy, coping, depression, and anxiety on the quality of life of patients with paroxysmal atrial fibrillation. Methods: It is a cross-sectional study trial. This study aims to enroll 100 patients with paroxysmal atrial fibrillation. Illness perceptions (Brief Illness Perceptions Questionnaire; BIPQ), coping styles (Carver Brief-COPE scale; B-COPE), depression Patient Health Questionnaire-9 ,PHQ-9),anxiety (The Generalized Anxiety Disorder Questionnaire, GAD 7) and quality of life (12-item Short Form Health Survey,SF12) will be analysed. This study intends to use correlation analysis and mediation analyses to assess the mediating effects of self-efficacy, coping, depression and anxiety on the quality of life of patients with paroxysmal atrial fibrillation.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. The 12-item Short Form Health Survey (SF-12)

    The 12-item Short Form Health Survey (SF-12) is a 12-item, multipurpose short-form survey that is used to measure generic HRQoL (derived from the SF-36). The findings are weighted and summed to produce clearly interpretable scales for a participant's physical and mental well-being26. SF-12 is divided into two domains: the physical component summary (PCS) and the mental component summary (MCS). Each domain scores from 0 to 100, with higher scores indicating a better health status. The SF-12's PCS and MCS scores are based on the norms of a broad population in the United States of America, with a mean of 50

    Measured: Quality of life was measured at the start of the study,Up to 24 weeks
