摘要 [Objectives] To explore the mediating effect of social support between depression and resilience in elderly patients with first-episode stroke. [Methods] The general information questionnaire, PHQ-9 depression screening scale, Social Support Rating scale and Connor-Davidson Resilience Scale were used to construct and test the mediation model. [Results] The total score of depressive symptoms was (8.64±3.28) points, the detection rate of depressive symptoms was 51.65%, the score of social support was (37.28±5.98) points, and the score of psychological resilience was (22.05±5.25) points. The resilience of patients was positively correlated with social support (r=0.470, P<0.01), and negatively correlated with depressive symptoms (r=-0.470, P<0.01). Social support was negatively correlated with depressive symptoms (r=-0.523, P<0.01). Social support played a partial mediating role between depression and resilience in elderly patients with first-episode stroke, and the mediating effect accounted for 16.1% of the total effect. [Conclusions] Social support can mediate the effect of depression on resilience in elderly patients with first-episode stroke. Medical staff can improve patients’ psychological resilience by psychological counseling of depression and improving their social support, so as to promote their subjective well-being and maintain a healthy and positive mental state.
