This book was released on 2016 with total page 110 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is a chronic and progressive medical condition that has reached pandemic levels, currently affecting 368 million people worldwide. With previous research demonstrating that T2DM is largely irreversible, the focus is now on developing and disseminating structured diabetes self-management education and support (DSME) programs to help patients live as healthfully as possible without exacerbating their illness. In recent years, several DSME interventions have demonstrated clinically meaningful changes in T2DM patients; however, there appears to be little translation of these programs from research into real world settings because these settings often lack clear blueprints for how to create or implement DSME programs that best fit their organizational needs and structure. Thus, the current study aimed to address this research-practice gap through the development of a brief, theoretically-driven, and behaviorally-focused group-based DSME curriculum for use in real world settings. Phase 1 of the study entailed concentrated efforts to join behavioral health researchers, community health leaders, and T2DM experts in combining the Common Sense Model of Self-Regulation (a prominent health behavior theory), cognitive behavioral principles, and current guidelines from the American Diabetes Association into a novel DSME curriculum. Phase 2 of the study then focused on implementing the resulting four-session curriculum, An Active Approach to Diabetes Self-Management, in local community centers and examining its early acceptability, feasibility, and effectiveness in producing clinical and psychosocial outcomes of interest. A total of 22 adults with T2DM, ranging in age from 35 to 87 years, were recruited from four community organizations and entered into four separate groups. Results indicate statistically significant improvements in participants' glycemic control, diabetes knowledge, and diabetes self-efficacy over the course of the study. In addition, results indicate that both participants and community liaisons were highly satisfied with the intervention. These findings contribute to the field's growing knowledge of how best to capitalize on clinical, research, and real world expertise to design thoughtful and practical DSME programs.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Social problems in many domains, including health, education, social relationships, and the workplace, have their origins in human behavior. The documented links between behavior and social problems have compelled governments and organizations to prioritize and mobilize efforts to develop effective, evidence-based means to promote adaptive behavior change. In recognition of this impetus, The Handbook of Behavior Change provides comprehensive coverage of contemporary theory, research, and practice on behavior change. It summarizes current evidence-based approaches to behavior change in chapters authored by leading theorists, researchers, and practitioners from multiple disciplines, including psychology, sociology, behavioral science, economics, philosophy, and implementation science. It is the go-to resource for researchers, students, practitioners, and policy makers looking for current knowledge on behavior change and guidance on how to develop effective interventions to change behavior.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Type 2 diabetes affects over 20 million people in the United States and has cost the healthcare system billions of dollars. As a result, countless research hours and funds are devoted to developing and testing programs to improve the self-management skills of patients with diabetes. Some interventions produce clinically meaningful changes, but few programs are based on theoretically sound protocols, which makes it difficult to assess theory-based group or individual level variables that might be responsible for changes in self-management. The current study piloted "An Active Approach to Diabetes Self-Management", a novel diabetes self-management intervention based on the integration of two theories (the Common Sense Model of Self-Regulation and Social Cognitive Theory) with techniques from cognitive behavior therapy. The intervention was developed within a Community Based Partnership Research framework. The 4-week intervention consisted of weekly, two-hour group sessions that presented information on and experiences with diabetes self-management, including the self-monitoring of blood glucose, physical activity and nutrition. Sixteen participants participated in three groups held in the fall of 2011 and February of 2012. The primary outcome was hemoglobin A1C (A1C), which was measured before and three months after the start of the intervention. Data were also collected on diabetes self-efficacy, self-management behaviors, diabetes knowledge, general mental and physical functioning and feasibility. iii Results indicated that participants with baseline A1C levels above 6.5% had a significant reduction in A1C over the course of the study. Self-efficacy and understanding of diabetes increased over the course of the study. Diabetes-related negative affect decreased over the course of the study and there was a trend towards a decrease in BMI between baseline and the end of the study. Results also indicate that the workshop was feasible with regards to participant and community staff member satisfaction, study curriculum and the group process. As described within, future iterations must amend inclusion criteria and the curriculum, improve the usability of questionnaires and increase sample size in order to further test feasibility and to determine effect and sample sizes for a larger trial.

This book was released on 2017 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Title: Multilevel Model of Integrated Self-Management Education in People with Type 2 Diabetes: a Qualitative StudyBackground: National and international guidelines recognise self-management education as key element of diabetes care. However, less than half of people living with type 2 diabetes participate in self-management education programmes. Developing self-management programmes that are better integrated with patientsu2019 experiences, needs and ongoing care may help improve their uptake.Aims: To explore the ways different components of integration are expressed at an individual, professional and organisational level within a novel programme of self-management support.Methods: We conducted a qualitative study using thematic narrative analysis to explore factors influencing integration within the self-management programme. Sixteen purposively sampled programme participants were recruited in two programme settings to participate in semi-structured in-depth interviews. The sample included 10 people with type 2 diabetes, 3 healthcare professionals and 3 lay educators. Ten of the participants were also directly observed during a total of 24 hours of course interactions and 4 related programme documents were analysed. The data were collected in the context of a comparative case study exploring 3 different self-management education programmes aimed at enhancing patient-centred self-management. The ethical permission was provided by the respective authorities.Results: Five main themes were identified relating to components of integration in self-management education. The themes were: 1) raising the awareness of mutual expectations and roles in the group exchanges by understanding the mechanisms that encourage equal contributions, mainly motivation and position; 2) building a sustainable learning environment by integrating locally available resources that consider the structural and procedural programme aspects to support a continuous active learning; 3) sharing personal experiences by combining learning methods and group support that connects the individual behaviour with common self-management practice; 4) exploring individual challenges for self-management behaviour by responding to the participantsu2019 needs that respect different life priorities and the socio-cultural context; and 5) understanding interactions at the individual, professional and organisational level by encouraging active participation and collaboration as a consequence that reflects a person-centred programme delivery. These components of integration are interrelated and expressed the different interactions occurring in self-management education.Discussion: Understanding the integration of programme components at the individual, professional and organisational level enables to explore the programme implementation and furthers the development of self-management education. The study highlights the potential impact of interpersonal interaction that encourages the active engagement of people with chronic condition in their self-management. These five components build the basis for the development of the multileveled model to better understand integration in self-management education.

Download or read book The Effects of Motivational Interviewing on Diabetes Self management Behaviors and Glycemic Control in Type 2 Diabetes written by Cheryl L. Waker and published by . This book was released on 2012 with total page 163 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Background: Diabetes Mellitus is one of the most prevalent chronic diseases of the 21st century with devastating consequences from sustained hyperglycemia. After being diagnosed with diabetes, many individuals need to integrate diabetes self-management practices into daily life to improve glycemic control. Individuals wanting to improve their diabetes self-management behavior may feel ambivalent about making behavior change or not have the knowledge or skills to be successful. Healthcare providers are in an influential position to promote patients' diabetes self-management practices by using interventions that are effective in real-world settings. There is a gap in the literature of translational studies testing interventions for healthcare providers to use with their patients to facilitate health behavior change. Methods: This translational study was an experimental, pre/post-test, two-group control design. The primary aims of this study were to: 1) test the effects of motivational interviewing (MI) on diabetes self-management behaviors and glycemic control in a private practice setting; 2) determine costs associated with motivational interviewing, and evaluate the acceptability of the intervention. A convenience sampling method was used to recruit 154 adult individuals with type 2 diabetes who were randomly assigned to either the intervention or control group. The intervention group received usual care and two 60-minute MI sessions whereas the control group received usual care. Data was collected at baseline and at three months. Clinical outcome measures included healthy eating, physical activity, and glucose monitoring behaviors and A1c values. Other measures included participant's perception of the acceptability, helpfulness, and autonomy supportiveness of the intervention. Additionally, cost of training and delivery of the intervention were calculated. Statistical analysis included repeated measures ANOVA and multiple regression. Findings: Both groups had modest improvement on diet, physical activity, and glucose monitoring subscales and A1c values. Repeated measures ANOVA was used to test the effects of MI, which demonstrated significance for within-subjects main effects of diet and physical activity, however interaction effects were not significant and between group differences were mixed. Multiple regression was used to determine if an improvement in diet, physical activity, and glucose monitoring would predict a significant reduction in A1c. There was a 0.5 mean reduction in A1c with MI and the model was significant. Participants rated MI as a highly acceptable, helpful, and autonomy supportive intervention. The cost of MI training was calculated as $7606, and the cost to deliver the intervention was $117 per individual session. Conclusions: Motivational interviewing is a promising strategy that healthcare providers can use in the clinical setting to facilitate diabetes self-management behaviors among individuals with type 2 diabetes. Even though results of this study were mixed, the participants had made modest improvements in performance of healthy eating, physical activity, and glucose monitoring with a reduction in A1c. Participants perceived the intervention to be highly acceptable and helpful. Last, the cost of the training and delivery of the intervention are modest compared to the potential benefit of improving glycemic control among individuals with type 2 diabetes.

Download or read book Self Regulation Theory and Self monitoring of Blood Glucose Behavior in Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus written by Jennifer E. F. Ward and published by . This book was released on 2014 with total page 135 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The present study examined self-monitoring of blood glucose (SMBG) as part of a selfregulatory process of health decision-making using the Self-Regulation Model of illness perceptions, or Common Sense Model. Participants were N=185 individuals with type 2 diabetes from a specialty diabetes clinic prescribed subcutaneous insulin or other injectable diabetes medication at least daily. Collected information included both medical chart data and self-report questionnaires completed prior receiving lab results. Self-care burden was generally high; the modal prescribed times per day of injecting insulin was 4 with modal SMBG recommendations of 3-4 times per day. Participants reported high adherence to prescribed medication regimens, varied aherence to diet recommednations, and low engagement in exercise. Specific hypotheses were developed to examine the relationship between illness coherence and illness control beliefs (IPQ), SMBG decisionmaking behavior, and outcomes including diabetes distress (PAID) and hemoglobin A1c level. These hypotheses were not supported. Supplemental analyses revealed that SMBG decision-making use was related to illness perceptions, including a positive relationship with personal control and coherence beliefs, but not treatment control, and a negative relationship with both outcome variables (A1c at baseline and PAID score). Both treatment and personal control beliefs were not associated with glucose control outcomes, suggesting that illness beliefs alone do not explain why some individuals are more successful at managing their diabetes than others. Coherence was found to differ by education level and SES and greatly vary in an otherwise relatively homogenous sample. Study findings suggest that illness perceptions play an important role in the process of SMBG use for decision-making as it relates to glucose control and diabetes distress. Results also point to possible clinical targets such as illness coherence and diabetes distress. The study provides a foundation for future research related to SMBG as a decision-making strategy.

This book was released on 2016-11-21 with total page 525 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Decades of research have demonstrated that the parent-child dyad and the environment of the familyâ€"which includes all primary caregiversâ€"are at the foundation of children's well- being and healthy development. From birth, children are learning and rely on parents and the other caregivers in their lives to protect and care for them. The impact of parents may never be greater than during the earliest years of life, when a child's brain is rapidly developing and when nearly all of her or his experiences are created and shaped by parents and the family environment. Parents help children build and refine their knowledge and skills, charting a trajectory for their health and well-being during childhood and beyond. The experience of parenting also impacts parents themselves. For instance, parenting can enrich and give focus to parents' lives; generate stress or calm; and create any number of emotions, including feelings of happiness, sadness, fulfillment, and anger. Parenting of young children today takes place in the context of significant ongoing developments. These include: a rapidly growing body of science on early childhood, increases in funding for programs and services for families, changing demographics of the U.S. population, and greater diversity of family structure. Additionally, parenting is increasingly being shaped by technology and increased access to information about parenting. Parenting Matters identifies parenting knowledge, attitudes, and practices associated with positive developmental outcomes in children ages 0-8; universal/preventive and targeted strategies used in a variety of settings that have been effective with parents of young children and that support the identified knowledge, attitudes, and practices; and barriers to and facilitators for parents' use of practices that lead to healthy child outcomes as well as their participation in effective programs and services. This report makes recommendations directed at an array of stakeholders, for promoting the wide-scale adoption of effective programs and services for parents and on areas that warrant further research to inform policy and practice. It is meant to serve as a roadmap for the future of parenting policy, research, and practice in the United States.
Download or read book Social cognitive Predictors of Physical Activity Initiation in Type 2 Diabetes Following Diabetes Self management Education written by Jason E. Bonner and published by . This book was released on 2010 with total page 472 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Type 2 diabetes presents a public health crisis and a global pandemic. Successful management of diabetes requires engagement in a daily regimen of self-care behaviors to achieve optimal glycemic control and to reduce the severity of diabetes-related complications. Regular engagement in physical activity has been demonstrated to improve glycemic control and overall quality of life among patients with diabetes. Diabetes self-management education (DSME) has become the hallmark for instructing patients with diabetes to engage in physical activity, yet physical activity patterns of DSME patients remains largely unknown. Further, it is unclear what factors could account for such behavior change in the DSME setting. Social-cognitive models of health behavior have attempted to explain behavior change such as physical activity initiation. One model, the Health Action Process Approach (HAPA), provides a parsimonious framework for understanding this process. The HAPA organizes key social-cognitive factors into a motivational stage, where a behavioral intention is formed, and a volitional stage, where self-regulatory processes such as action planning mediate the intention-behavior relationship, thereby translating intention into action. Using the HAPA as a theoretical framework, the present study sought to examine the key social-cognitive determinants of physical activity initiation among patients with type 2 diabetes after they participated in DSME. A longitudinal, multi-site prospective study design utilized written and telephone based surveys to assess HAPA constructs and physical activity in a DSME population. Participants were 152 adults with type 2 diabetes attending DSME classes in a mid-west metropolitan city. Results of this study revealed that several key social-cognitive factors, as conceptualized by the HAP A's motivational stage, predicted the formation of a behavioral intention to engage in physical activity. Findings on the HAPA volitional stage constructs indicated that only behavioral intention predicted which participants met the minimum amounts of physical activity promoted in DSME. Additionally, the present study revealed physical activity initiation remains a problem among DSME participants. Future research is recommended to clarify the causal role and pathways of social-cognitive factors in the HAP A model to better understand physical activity initiation within the DSME population.
