Abstract: Objective To investigate the bed procrastination, depression and anxiety of donors involved in pediatric living-related liver transplantation. Methods A total of 97 living donors were assessed via the Bedtime Procrastination Scale, the Generalized Anxiety Disorder 7-item(GAD-7), and the Patient Health Questionnaire 9-item(PHQ-9), among others. Results The average age of the participants was 31.8±6.5 years. Their average height and weight were 165.7±7cm and 59.9±9.0kg, respectively. The mean score of bed procrastination was 29.2±7.3, showing no significant statistical difference compared with college students. The PHQ-9 and GAD-7 scores were 7.9±7.0 and 8.2±7.1, respectively. Single factor analysis showed that “debt” and “satisfaction with housing conditions” were significant impact factors of depression and anxiety. Multiple regression analysis revealed that GAD-7 scores and fatigue were significant impact factors for depression, while PHQ-9 scores, fatigue and happiness were significant impact factors for anxiety. Conclusion The bed procrastination of living donors was slightly higher than the medium level, showing no statistical difference compared to college students. GAD-7 scores and fatigue were found to be significant factors influencing depression, while PHQ-9 scores, fatigue and happiness were significant factors influencing anxiety.
