| Resumo: | Leprosy is one of the oldest diseases in the history of mankind. It is profoundly marked by stigma, prejudice and social exclusion, causing compulsory isolation of its bearers and total or partial withdrawal from family ties. Children were confined and raised in preventorios / education centers. The general objective was to evaluate the self-esteem and quality of life of children separated by leprosy in Rio Grande do Norte. This is a descriptive study with a quantitative approach carried out with 60 subjects, located from the register of the Movement of Reintegration of People Affected by Leprosy (MORHAN) Potiguar. A socio-demographic questionnaire, Rosenberg Self-Esteem Scale and the short-form health survey questionnaire (SF-36) were used. The research project was approved under number 1,047,792 by the Institutional Review Board/UFRN. Data was analyzed in SPSS 20.0 program with internal evaluation of the scales and normality test. Descriptive and inferential analyzes were performed with correlation of variables on non-parametric tests, Chi-square, Mann-Whitney U, Friedman and Spearman. Statistical significance was considering at p <0.05. Results are organized in two manuscripts. The first highlights the socio-demographic profile showing predominance of female sex, age group of adults and elderly, elementary school, married, income between 1 and 3 minimum wages, home, housewife and retirees. The quality of life was good. While it was better in social aspects (71.3), functional capacity (69.3), mental health (68.1), vitality (58.3), general health status (57,1), it was worst in emotional aspects (49.4) with significant difference (p = 0.002) among the evaluated domains. The participants presented stable quality of life (35.0%) when compared to a year ago. The second manuscript indicates a good quality of life in males with difference between domains (p-value <0.001) with better scores on social aspects, functional capacity, and mental health, but worse scores on physical aspects limitation. In females, good quality of life (p-value = 0.063) with better scores in domains of vitality, general health, pain and limitation by physical aspects, but worse scores in the limitation by emotional aspect. Only the general state of health domain presented differencebetween the sexes, being better in the women (p-value = 0,015). Self-esteem was good overall, being slightly better in male. There were positive and significant correlations between the domains of quality of life and self-esteem. Moderate correlations in social aspects, functional capacity, mental health, vitality, limitation by physical and emotional aspects. Poor correlations of poor general health and pain, showing better self-esteem relates to better quality of life. Conclusion: There were positive and significant correlations between the domains of quality of life and self-esteem (p <0.05). The null hypothesis was refuted, accepting the alternative hypothesis which proposes correlation between self-esteem and quality of life of children separated by leprosy in Rio Grande do Norte. |
