Introduction: Repetitive or long-lasting activity of stressors can cause cardiovascular disease. The purpose of this paper was to assess dependence between the level of intensity of stress at work and in everyday life and the occurrence of cardiovascular disease. Material and methods: One hundred people (50 with cardiovascular disease and 50 healthy ones) were answering the questions from the HSE survey to assess stress at work, SRRS survey to assess stressful events and Mini-COPE survey to assess coping with stress. Results: It was stated that healthy people as well as treated people suffering from cardiovascular disease experience stress at work. However, the people from the comparison group were under less strain than the people from the test group (p = 0,0044). It was also indicated that the people from the test group more often resigned from undertaking efforts to cope with a difficult situation (p = 0,0459). Conclusions: People suffering from cardiovascular disease are significantly more often under strain at work and slightly more under strain in everyday life than healthy people. Simultaneously, healthy people were coping better with stress than people with cardiovascular disease.

Wstęp: Powtarzające się lub długotrwałe działanie stresorów może powodować choroby układu krążenia. Celem pracy była ocena zależności pomiędzy poziomem natężenia stresu w pracy i w życiu codziennym a występowaniem chorób układu krążenia. Materiał i metody: Sto osób (50 z chorobami układu krążenia i 50 zdrowych) odpowiadało na pytania kwestionariusza HSE do oceny stresu w pracy, kwestionariusza SRRS do oceny wydarzeń stresujących, kwestionariusza Mini-COPE do oceny radzenia sobie ze stresem. Wyniki: Stwierdzono, że osoby zdrowe jak i osoby badane, u których występują choroby układu krążenia doświadczają stresu w pracy, jednak mniejsze narażenie na stres wykazały osoby z grupy porównawczej niż osoby z grupy zasadniczej (p = 0,0044). Wykazano również, iż osoby z grupy zasadniczej znacznie częściej rezygnowały z prób poradzenia sobie z trudną sytuacją (p = 0,0459). Wnioski: Osoby u których występują choroby układu krążenia były istotnie częściej narażone na stres w pracy oraz nieznacznie częściej narażone były na stres w życiu codziennym aniżeli osoby zdrowe. Jednocześnie, osoby zdrowe lepiej radziły sobie ze stresem niż osoby z chorobami układu krążenia.

Introduction. The Western Ontario Shoulder Instability Index (WOSI) is a patient reported outcome measure to assess the impact of unstable shoulder on various spheres of a patient’s life. The aim of this paper is to present the stages of linguistic adaptation of the English version of the WOSI questionnaire into the Polish version (WOSI-PL). Material and methods. The research used the procedure of translation of research tools recommended by Mapi Research Institute, which allows to minimize errors resulting from the translation. Results. Two versions of the translation were created: A1V and A2V, and based on them, a common version BV was agreed. An English native speaker made a back translation version – BTV. Next, the BTV was compared with the source version SV, corrections were made and the CV version was created. Based on the analysis of experts’ assessments, a DV version was agreed, then evaluated by a group of 6 patients. The patients’ responses was analyzed, and the final version – WOSI-PL was created. Conclusion. The WOSI-PL constitutes a valuable tool to evaluate health-related quality of life in patients with shoulder instability. The questionnaire before being introduced to scientific research and clinical practice will be subjected to a validation process in order to evaluate psychometric properties.
