Abstract

MARTIN SANCHEZ, Dailyn et al. Relevance of Experiential avoidance in Multiple sclerosis and nursing rol. Index Enferm [online]. 2021, vol.30, n.4, pp.313-317.  Epub June 27, 2022. ISSN 1699-5988.

Objective:

To describe the levels of Experimental avoidance (EA) in patients with Multiple sclerosis (MS) and establish the main nursing diagnoses.

Methods:

cross-sectional study carried out with 51 patients in two MS associations The self-applied scale Acceptance and Action Questionnaire-II was used.

Results:

The average score for the experiential avoidance was 23.84. The analysis by factors shows higher scores for emotional overflow (46.02 %).

Conclusion:

Experience avoidance is an ineffective coping response to multiple sclerosis, and there has been a higher prevalence among the female sex. It is proposed to include tools that allow the early diagnosis of cognitive alterations related to this pathology from Primary Health Care.

Keywords : experiential avoidance; multiple sclerosis; neuropsychological tests; quality of life; Nursing.
