Abstract

Features of the quality of life of 132 combatants with non-psychotic mental disorders who were sick with COVID-19 and 120 who were not sick with COVID-19 were studied, using the methodology of I. Mezzich et al. in the adaptation of N. O. Maruta. Low quality of life indicators were established in areas reflecting psychological functioning, and somewhat less — physical functioning, while maintaining high indicators in areas related to the influence of the environment and social support, with significantly higher indicators in combatants who did not suffer from COVID-19: according to in the sphere of physical well-being — 7.67 ± 1.10 points against 7.10 ± 1.29 points (p < 0.01), psychological (emotional) well-being — 5.59 ± 1.95 points against 4.60 ± 1,96 points (p < 0.01), self-care and independence of actions — 9.46 ± 0.78 points versus 9.03 ± 1.01 points (p < 0.01), working capacity — 7.70 ± 1.35 points against 7.02 ± 1.48 points (p < 0.01), interpersonal interaction — 6.15 ± 2.32 points against 4.91 ± 2.45 points (p < 0.01), socio-emotional support — 9.23 ± 1.01 points against 8.75 ± 1.20 points (p < 0.01), public and official support — 9.40 ± 0.73 points against 9.01 ± 0.91 points (p < 0.01), personal realization — 5.96 ± 1.98 points against 4.95 ± 2.06 points (p < 0.01), spiritual realization — 7.76 ± 1.06 points against 7.23 ± 1.01 points (p < 0.01), total perception of life — 4.88 ± 1.90 points against 3.92 ± 1.74 points (p < 0.01); as well as in integral spheres of subjective well-being/ satisfaction — 18.14 ± 4.87 points against 15.62 ± 4.88 points (p < 0.01), performance of social roles — 29.28 ± 6.26 points against 25.91 ± 6.87 points (p < 0.01), external living conditions — 26.39 ± 2.70 points against 24.98 ± 3.04 points (p < 0.01), and the general quality of life indicator: 7.38 ± 1.37 points versus 6.65 ± 1.47 points (p < 0.01). The revealed regularities convincingly testify to the negative impact of transferred COVID-19 in combatants with non-psychotic mental disorders on quality of life in general and in its specific spheres.
