Sažetak
The aim of our study was to investigate the relationship between pain and depression, as well as pain and anxiety in 36 children (age 8 to 16 years) with juvenile idiopathic arthritis (JIA). Pain was measured by visual analogue scale (VAS), and depression and anxiety were measured by depression and anxiety subscales from Trauma Symptom Checklist for Children (TSC-C). The average self-perception of pain on the VAS scale was 29, 47 mm (SD: 20, 04 ; range 0-70 mm), for girls was 31, 77 mm and for boys 25, 86 mm. The correlation between depression and pain was statistically significant (r = 0, 504, p = 0, 002), and also correlation between anxiety and depression (r= 0, 641, p <0, 001), but there were no statistical significant correlation between pain and anxiety (r = 0, 312, p = 0, 064). Multiple regression analysis confirmed this. Conclusion: Psychological assessment can help professionals who work with children with JIA, who suffer severe pain. Depression can influence the efficacy and duration of the treatment in these patients. Antidepressive therapy could be a useful supplement to the basic treatment for these patients with JIA.
