In the conservative treatment of HOA, self-management is important to manage symptoms and control disease progression. In a previous study, the researchers conducted a conceptual analysis of 43 foreign studies on self-management during conservative therapy for patients with HOA. The results revealed a definition of self-management during conservative therapy for patients with HOA. However, because that study analyzed only the foreign literature, it remains unclear whether the findings reflect the characteristics of the Japanese health-care delivery system, health-care insurance system, or the lifestyles and cultural characteristics of Japanese patients with HOA. Objective: We aimed to clarify the self-management behaviors of patients with HOA. Methods: Semi-structured interviews were conducted with five patients diagnosed with HOA, and the results were subjected to inductive qualitative analysis. Results: Six categories of self-management behaviors were extracted for patients with HOA: [active information gathering about HOA], [personalized pain and weight management, and strategies for reducing hip joint load], [reflection on living conditions with individuals and professionals, and determination for future efforts], [continuation of exercise and weight management based on personal strengths and achievements, and mutual support with others], [coexistence with HOA while managing negative feelings], and [choosing treatment methods by trusting doctors while struggling with personal needs]. Conclusion: These findings suggest the need to develop health guidance and educational programs for patients with HOA that focus on how to prevent disease progression and cope with symptoms.展开更多

Methods: A total of 260 patients with diabetes from a community were selected through convenient sampling and randomly divided into an experimental group and a control group using the random number table method, with 130 cases in each group. Five cases were lost in the experimental group, resulting in 125 effective cases, while all 130 cases in the control group were effective. The control group received standard lectures on diabetes self-management behavior and traditional approaches, such as the distribution of educational manuals. The experimental group underwent a self-management behavior intervention program for diabetic patients based on Snyder’s hope theory model, encompassing three components: goals, pathways, and motivational thinking. The levels of hope and self-management behavior were compared between the two groups. Results: After the intervention, the scores for hope levels and self-management behaviors in both groups were significantly higher than those recorded before the intervention (P < 0.05). Furthermore, the hope level and self-management behavior scores of the experimental group were significantly higher than those of the control group (P < 0.05). Conclusion: The application of Snyder’s hope theory model in diabetic patients demonstrates significant benefits, improving patients’ hope levels and, consequently, enhancing their self-management behaviors.展开更多

Diabetes self-management education has been identified as a crucial tool in enhancing the knowledge, attitudes, and abilities necessary for self-management among individuals with diabetes. Aim: To assess the impact of diabetes self-management education on medication adherence and glycemic control in Sudanese adults with type 2 diabetes before and 3 months after the DSME intervention. Method: The study was conducted in Sudan between September 2022 and March 2023, it was an interventional, one-group, pre- and post-test study that aimed to assess the impact of diabetes self-management education (DSME) on medication adherence and diabetes control in Sudanese adults with type 2 diabetes. The research was conducted in primary health care centers in six cities in Sudan and involved 244 participants. The data entry and statistical analysis were conducted using the Statistical Package for Social Sciences version 27.0. A paired t test was used for analysis. Results: The study included 244 participants, 67% of whom were males. The age mean ± SD was 48.6 ± 9.3 years, and 85.3% of participants were married. Age at onset of diabetes mean ± SD was 40.60 ± 7.81 years;44.6% had diabetes for less than 5 years;and 84.1% had a positive family history of diabetes mellitus. The levels of poor, low, and partial adherence to medication decreased by 8.2%, 4%, and 20.6%, respectively, after the intervention. The levels of good and high medication regime adherence increased by 13% and 19.8%, respectively;BMI decreased by 1.1 ± 0.73 kg/m<sup>2</sup> (p = 0.005). The fasting blood sugar decreased by 69 ± 32.9 mg/dl (p = 0.049), and the glycated hemoglobin decreased by 1.21 ± 0.28% (p = 0.001). Conclusions: The findings of this study reinforce the importance of patient education in improving glycemic control and enhancing self-management behaviors. Patient education plays a critical role in enhancing glycemic control and self-management behaviors. It is essential for healthcare providers to adopt a patient-centered approach, taking into account the individual's beliefs, attitudes, and knowledge about their illness and treatment. Overcoming these challenges necessitates a comprehensive approach, including enhancing healthcare professionals’ knowledge and communication skills, offering accessible and culturally sensitive diabetes education programs, and addressing barriers to resources and support for self-management.展开更多

文摘Background: Hip osteoarthritis (HOA) causes joint destruction, resulting in hip pain, limited range-of-motion, claudication, and joint deformity. In the conservative treatment of HOA, self-management is important to manage symptoms and control disease progression. In a previous study, the researchers conducted a conceptual analysis of 43 foreign studies on self-management during conservative therapy for patients with HOA. The results revealed a definition of self-management during conservative therapy for patients with HOA. However, because that study analyzed only the foreign literature, it remains unclear whether the findings reflect the characteristics of the Japanese health-care delivery system, health-care insurance system, or the lifestyles and cultural characteristics of Japanese patients with HOA. Objective: We aimed to clarify the self-management behaviors of patients with HOA. Methods: Semi-structured interviews were conducted with five patients diagnosed with HOA, and the results were subjected to inductive qualitative analysis. Results: Six categories of self-management behaviors were extracted for patients with HOA: [active information gathering about HOA], [personalized pain and weight management, and strategies for reducing hip joint load], [reflection on living conditions with individuals and professionals, and determination for future efforts], [continuation of exercise and weight management based on personal strengths and achievements, and mutual support with others], [coexistence with HOA while managing negative feelings], and [choosing treatment methods by trusting doctors while struggling with personal needs]. Conclusion: These findings suggest the need to develop health guidance and educational programs for patients with HOA that focus on how to prevent disease progression and cope with symptoms.
文摘BACKGROUND Esophageal cancer(EC)is an aggressive malignancy with low survival(10%-30%).Nutritional problems are present throughout the perioperative period and are key to prognosis.Home enteral nutrition appears to improve the nutritional status of patients with EC.Few studies have addressed the experience of patients administering their own nutritional fluids and managing their own feeding tubes at home.The aim of this study was to explore the real-life experience of self-management of feeding tubes in patients at home after EC surgery in the first 3 months after discharge following surgery.AIM To explore feeding tube self-management experience of patients at home 3 months after discharge following EC surgery.METHODS Face-to-face semi-structured interviews were conducted with 18 patients using a feeding tube at home after EC surgery.Thematic analysis of the recordings identified themes related to feeding tube self-management.RESULTS Patients expressed similar feelings about their tube management experiences concerning three contextualized themes:Self-management dilemmas,distressing experiences,and self-management facilitators.CONCLUSION There are many dilemmas and problems in self-managing feeding tubes in postoperative homebound patients with EC.Clinical staff should provide guidance to promote a positive change in self-management behavior.
文摘BACKGROUND The correlation conclusions between self-management,frailty,and quality of life(QoL)of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease(COPD)patients are inconsistent.AIM To comprehensively assess the current status of self-management,psychological cognitive impairment,and QoL in elderly patients with COPD.METHODS Convenient sampling was employed to select 312 elderly patients with COPD who were receiving treatment in the respiratory and critical care medicine department of a tertiary grade A hospital from November 2023 to February 2024.The study utilized demographic information and clinical characteristics,selfmanagement behavior,occurrence of psychological cognitive impairment,and QoL as evaluated through general information questionnaires,the COPD patient self-management scale,simple frailty scale,simple mental status scale,clinical dementia assessment scale,and the clinical COPD assessment test questionnaire.This research aims to describe the current status and correlations among selfmanagement behavior,cognitive impairment occurrence,and QoL.RESULTS The average score for self-management behavior in elderly COPD patients was 136.00(119.00,164.50),indicating a moderate level overall.There were 98 cases of cognitive impairment,accounting for 31.4%,with a mental status score of 3(2,3.75).The average QoL score was 24(19,28),indicating a low level.Additionally,there was a negative correlation between total self-management behavior score and cognitive impairment occurrence(r=-0.589,P<0.001),and QoL total score(r=-0.409,P<0.001).Cognitive impairment occurrence was positively correlated with QoL total score(r=0.345,P<0.001).Disease course and self-management behavior score were independent factors affecting the total QoL score in elderly COPD patients(P<0.05).CONCLUSION The self-management behavior of elderly patients with COPD is at a moderate level.However,the occurrence of cognitive impairment is high and significantly influenced by disease course,level of self-management,and mental status.The QoL is low,emphasizing the urgent need to intervene in the self-management behaviors of elderly COPD patients,actively reduce the occurrence of cognitive impairment,and mitigate the impact of the disease on QoL.

文摘Diabetes is a major public health concern worldwide. Low and middle-income countries are the most affected. Diabetes self-management can significantly reduce the burden of diabetes complications and mortality. This cross-sectional study was conducted at the outpatient department of a county referral hospital in Kenya, from 1st August 2022 to 30th October 2022. Patients with known type II diabetes of age ≥ 20 years visiting the hospital for routine follow-up visits were included. A 7-tem Summary of Diabetes Self-care Activities (SDSAC) Questionnaire was used to assess Diabetes self-care activities. For data entry and statistical analysis, SPSS for Windows version 27.0 was used. There were 96 (39.2%) males and 149 (60.8%) females. Most of the participants were more than 61 years, 148 (60.4%). Significant association was found between the sum scale scores of dietary activities, blood glucose testing, physical activity, foot care, and neuropathy at 95% CI and (p Conclusions: Diabetes self-management activities have an impact on microvascular complications in patients with diabetes.
文摘Objective:The objective of this study is to explore the current situation of nurses’participant activation for self-management of low back pain,analyze its influencing factors,and provide a reference for improving the participant activation for self-management of low back pain.Materials and Methods:A cross-sectional study was conducted with 5,120 nurses recruited through convenience sampling from hospitals across 25 provinces and municipalities in China.Participants completed two standardized instruments:General Information Questionnaire which collected demographic characteristics and work-related factors,and the Participant Activation for Self-Management of Back Pain Questionnaire which measured activation levels across three dimensions(including self-management beliefs,self-management awareness,and knowledge related to low back pain).Results:The score of nurses’participant activation for low back pain self-management was 38.00(33.00,44.00).The results of multiple linear regression showed that nurses of different gender,age,and professional titles,whether they had administrative positions,and whether they had back pain in the past year were influencing factors of nurses’participant activation for low back pain management.Conclusion:The overall participant activation for self-management of low back pain is at a medium level.Their self-management awareness is strong,but their beliefs about management of low back pain are insufficient.Targeted intervention measures can be taken to improve their activation for management of back pain and reduce the incidence of occupational low back pain.
文摘This longitudinal study investigated how self-management and learning burnout influences the relationship between habitual mobile phone use and subjective well-being amongfirst-year university students.A sample of 1172 Chinese university students participated in a two-wave survey,with data collected six months apart at two time points(T1,T2).The results of Pearson correlation revealed that higher habitual mobile phone use at T1 was associated with lower subjective well-being at T2.Self-management was associated with healthy phone use habits and higher subjective wellbeing.Learning burnout risk was higher with habitual phone usage.Lower self-management and learning burnout at T2 played a chain mediating role between habitual mobile phone use at T1 and subjective well-being at T2 so that subjective well-being was much lower that with either of the variables alone.Overall,thesefindings suggest that habitual mobile phone use is a reliable predictor of college student’s subjective well-being,by their self-management and level of learning burnout over time.This research highlights the long-term impact of habitual mobile phone use on students’subjective well-being and provides valuable insights for developing effective interventions to support students well-being.

文摘Objective:Effective Chronic Kidney Disease(CKD)management is particularly important in cold regions of China,where climate and lifestyle factors play significant roles.However,there is a lack of relevant studies in this area.Therefore,the purpose of this study was:(1)to assess the status of self-management capacity in individuals with CKD in cold regions of China and analyze the factors influencing it;(2)to identify strategies to improve CKD management in primary care settings in these regions;and(3)to understand patients'attitudes toward eHealth services.Methods:This was a regional,cross-sectional observational study.A questionnaire measuring CKD patients'self-management abilities was derived from the Perceived Kidney Disease Self-Management Scale,the Kidney Disease Behavioral Inventory(KDBI),and the Health Literacy Questionnaire.Data were collected from hospitalized CKD patients in Heilongjiang Province and analyzed using One-Way Analysis of Variance(ANOVA),Hierarchical Regression Analysis,and K-prototype cluster analysis.Results:A total of 957 participants were tested.Of these,70.64%had less than a bachelor's degree,and 56.27%had been diagnosed with hypertensive or diabetic nephropathy.The KDBI scale showed a lower overall score compared to the PKDSMS.Factors such as CKD stage 4(F=2.367,P=0.042),last year's medical expenses(F=3.974,P=0.004),and poor self-rated health(F=33.352,P<0.01)were found to influence scores on both scales.The health literacy questionnaire revealed significant differences(P<0.01)in health knowledge,except by sex.Additionally,healthcare expenditures and poor self-rated health were negatively associated with self-management capacity.Conclusion:This study provides valuable insights into the self-management challenges faced by CKD patients in cold regions of China.Despite some difficulties in improving self-management,patients showed positive attitudes toward enhancing CKD management services in primary care and developing digital management tools.These findings offer useful references and recommendations for future clinical practice and research in this field.
文摘Objective: To explore the application effect of self-management based on Snyder’s hope theory in diabetic patients. Methods: A total of 260 patients with diabetes from a community were selected through convenient sampling and randomly divided into an experimental group and a control group using the random number table method, with 130 cases in each group. Five cases were lost in the experimental group, resulting in 125 effective cases, while all 130 cases in the control group were effective. The control group received standard lectures on diabetes self-management behavior and traditional approaches, such as the distribution of educational manuals. The experimental group underwent a self-management behavior intervention program for diabetic patients based on Snyder’s hope theory model, encompassing three components: goals, pathways, and motivational thinking. The levels of hope and self-management behavior were compared between the two groups. Results: After the intervention, the scores for hope levels and self-management behaviors in both groups were significantly higher than those recorded before the intervention (P < 0.05). Furthermore, the hope level and self-management behavior scores of the experimental group were significantly higher than those of the control group (P < 0.05). Conclusion: The application of Snyder’s hope theory model in diabetic patients demonstrates significant benefits, improving patients’ hope levels and, consequently, enhancing their self-management behaviors.
文摘In this editorial we comment on the article titled“Establishment and validation of an adherence prediction system for lifestyle interventions in non-alcoholic fatty liver disease”by Zeng et al published in a recent issue of the World Journal of Gastroenterology.Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease(NAFLD)represents one of the current challenges in hepatology and public health,due to its continuous growing prevalence and the rising incidence of NAFLD-related fibrosis,non-alcoholic steatohepatitis and cirrhosis.The only effective therapeutic strategy for this dis-ease is represented by encouraging patients to improve their lifestyle through the modification of dietary intake and increased physical exercise,but the effective application of such modifications is often limited by various factors such as lack of information,psychological barriers or poor social support.While poor adherence to a healthy lifestyle can be decisive in determining the clinical outcome,in daily practice there is a lack of quantitative instruments aimed at identifying patients with the lowest adherence to lifestyle changes and higher risk of disease progre-ssion in the course of follow-up.In this article,Zeng et al propose a quantitative scale to assess the grade of adherence of patients with NAFLD to hea-lthy lifestyle intervention,called the Exercise and Diet Adherence Scale(EDAS).This scale,consisting of 33 items divided into 6 dimensions which relates to six subjective aspects in the self-management of NAFLD,has shown a good correlation with the identification of the sub-cohort of patients with the highest reduction in caloric intake,increase in physical exercise,probability of a reduction in liver stiffness measurement and alanine aminotransferase levels.The cor-relation among clinical outcomes and specific dimensions of this scale also highlights the pivotal role of a good and confidential doctor-patient relationship and of an effective communication.There is an urgent need for practical and effective instruments to assess the grade of self-management of NAFLD patients,together with the development of multidisciplinary teams with the aim of applying structured behavioral interventions.
文摘Objectives:This study aimed to explore the preferences and influencing factors of self-management behaviors in patients with recurrent gout and provide a theoretical basis for developing targeted strategies to improve self-management preferences.Methods:A total of 10 patients with recurrent gout were recruited from the gout specialist outpatient clinic at a tertiary hospital in Shenyang,Liaoning Province,China.Semi-structured interviews were conducted with these patients,and the Kawakita Jiro(KJ)method was used to analyze the interview data.Results:After four rounds of screening by five researchers,35 codes were selected from an initial 132.After three rounds of discussion and induction,the KJ method identified seven domains of selfmanagement behavior preferences in patients with recurrent gout:1)extensive knowledge of gout,yet difficulty in distinguishing between accurate and inaccurate information;2)a passive attitude of“no pain,no management”;3)the challenge of changing entrenched daily habits;4)the optimistic but unrealistic belief of“self-delusion”;5)a tendency to seek medical attention late due to hopelessness of cure and familiarity with recurrences;6)preference for analgesics for gout recurrences while neglecting long-term urate-lowering therapy(ULT);and 7)gout-related stigma.Conclusion:The results of this study showed that the self-management behavior of patients with recurrent gout could be improved,especially in the aspects of medical seeking behavior,medication compliance,daily management and emotional management.At the same time,we found that gout stigma,difficulty in distinguishing true and false knowledge of gout and negative attitude of“ignoring pain”were significantly associated with self-management behavior.
文摘AIM:To investigate the current situation and influencing factors of self-management ability in dry eye patients in west China.METHODS:A total of 265 patients clinically diagnosed with dry eye received a convenience survey questionnaire at West China Hospital of Sichuan University.All participants completed the rating scale of health self-management skill for adults(AHSMSRS),Huaxi Emotional-Distress Index(HEI),e-health literacy scale(e-HEALS)and Brief Illness Perception Questionnaire(Brief-IPQ).A generalized linear model was employed to establish a multivariate linear model with demographic data,psychological state,e-HEALS,and illness perception as independent variables and health selfmanagement skill score as the dependent variable.RESULTS:The mean score for health self-management skill was 165.58±15.79.Multivariate analysis revealed that advanced age,better illness perception and improved psychological state were associated with better health selfmanagement ability among dry eye patients.Furthermore,the health self-management ability of patients with a disease duration less than 1y was found to be higher compared to those with a disease duration exceeding 1y.CONCLUSION:The health self-management ability of dry eye patients in west China is relatively high.Age,duration of disease,illness perception and psychological state are the influencing factors on the health selfmanagement ability of dry eye patients.
文摘Hypertension(HTN)is one of the most common chronic diseases affecting over 30%of the adult population globally,with a growing incidence rate.This review assesses the relationship between health literacy(HL)intervention and hypertension(HTN)self-management among people with HTN.The study design was a systematic review of empirical research articles using a well-defined strategy.Online journals were accessed through databases such as PubMed,CINAHL,Google Scholar,ProQuest,Global Health,WHOLIS,Embase,and EbscoHost,spanning from January 2016 to December 2022 as the scope of the study.Articles selected for inclusion were those published in English during the specified time frame and adhering to Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses guidelines and Sample,Phenomenon of Interest,Design,Evaluation,Research Type framework for systematic review,focusing on criteria related to the sample,the phenomenon of interest,study design,evaluation,and research type.Out of 180 studies initially identified in the database search,20 studies were ultimately included in the review.The findings were reported based on these five emerging themes:Relationship between HL and HTN self-management;Effect of HL intervention on HTN self-management;Factors predicting self-care behaviors among HTN patients with low HL;Effect of HL and self-management efficacy on health-related quality of life(HRQoL);and level of self-care practices.This review highlights a relationship between HL,self-efficacy,self-care,and HRQoL,underscoring the necessity for further well-designed intervention studies focused on enhancing HL in individuals with HTN in Nigeria to enhance their quality of life.
文摘Research Background: The high prevalence of diabetes in Sudan, estimated at 16%, highlights the importance of effective health education in diabetes management. Diabetes self-management education has been identified as a crucial tool in enhancing the knowledge, attitudes, and abilities necessary for self-management among individuals with diabetes. Aim: To assess the impact of diabetes self-management education on medication adherence and glycemic control in Sudanese adults with type 2 diabetes before and 3 months after the DSME intervention. Method: The study was conducted in Sudan between September 2022 and March 2023, it was an interventional, one-group, pre- and post-test study that aimed to assess the impact of diabetes self-management education (DSME) on medication adherence and diabetes control in Sudanese adults with type 2 diabetes. The research was conducted in primary health care centers in six cities in Sudan and involved 244 participants. The data entry and statistical analysis were conducted using the Statistical Package for Social Sciences version 27.0. A paired t test was used for analysis. Results: The study included 244 participants, 67% of whom were males. The age mean ± SD was 48.6 ± 9.3 years, and 85.3% of participants were married. Age at onset of diabetes mean ± SD was 40.60 ± 7.81 years;44.6% had diabetes for less than 5 years;and 84.1% had a positive family history of diabetes mellitus. The levels of poor, low, and partial adherence to medication decreased by 8.2%, 4%, and 20.6%, respectively, after the intervention. The levels of good and high medication regime adherence increased by 13% and 19.8%, respectively;BMI decreased by 1.1 ± 0.73 kg/m<sup>2</sup> (p = 0.005). The fasting blood sugar decreased by 69 ± 32.9 mg/dl (p = 0.049), and the glycated hemoglobin decreased by 1.21 ± 0.28% (p = 0.001). Conclusions: The findings of this study reinforce the importance of patient education in improving glycemic control and enhancing self-management behaviors. Patient education plays a critical role in enhancing glycemic control and self-management behaviors. It is essential for healthcare providers to adopt a patient-centered approach, taking into account the individual's beliefs, attitudes, and knowledge about their illness and treatment. Overcoming these challenges necessitates a comprehensive approach, including enhancing healthcare professionals’ knowledge and communication skills, offering accessible and culturally sensitive diabetes education programs, and addressing barriers to resources and support for self-management.
