Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The World Health Organization estimates the incidence of diabetes as 347 million worldwide, and reseach has shown that the ongoing rate of diabetes-related amputations remains signficiant despite the existence of prevention methods and the known fact that amputations in most cases can be prevented. Research indicates taht deabetics with higher levels of self-efficacy have a higher level of foot self-care, howeveer only weak correlations have been found between self-efficacy and foot care beahviors. A descriptive correlation study was conducted using the theoretical framework of Bandura's social cognitive theory, with the aim to identify if a relationship existed between self-efficacy and deabetic foot self-care. The study consisted of a multimodal distribution of survey instruments using the Foot Care Confidence Scale (FCCS) and the Nottingham Assessment of Foot Selfcare (NAFF) to those over 18 years old with diabetes Type 1 and 2 in rural and urban sites in the lower peninsula of Michigan (N=223). A weak correlation without statistical significance was identified between the level of self-efficacy and performance of foot self-care behaviors. Analyses of variance were performed with a statistical significance found between who cared for a person's feet and FCCS scores, and diabetes education and NAFF scores. Statistical significance was found between foot care behaviors and gender, with males scoring higher than females. This study adds to the body of nursing knowledge regarding self-efficacy and diabetes in relation to foot care behaviors. Further research is needed to explore the relationship of gender and foot care behaviors." --from Author's abstract page.

Download or read book Foot care Confidence in People with Diabetes written by Byron Perrin and published by . This book was released on 2004 with total page 186 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The underlying pathology of the diabetic foot is becoming increasingly clear. However, the incidence and prevalence of problems such as skin ulceration and lower limb amputation are not decreasing despite determined efforts worldwide. It is now recognised that there may be specific psychosocial influences on the problem of the diabetic foot. This study was a cross-sectional, descriptive investigation of seventy-three people with diabetes over fifty years of age in the central Bendigo region. The aim of the study was to determine how confident the participants were in undertaking various foot-care activities, and whether an association could be found between confidence and various demographic characteristics of the sample. A modified version of a self-administered questionnaire, the Foot Care Confidence Scale (FCCS) was used to measure confidence in the sample. The FCCS is based on the self-efficacy construct of Bandura. Fifty-five of the seventy-three participants completed the FCCS in full. Results indicated a high level of confidence across the sample. Those who indicated that they undertook their own care of their feet were significantly more confident than those who relied on others. Those that indicated that they had seen a private podiatrist were significantly more confident than those who indicated they had seen a public podiatrist. In general, people with diabetes aged over fifty years were very confident that they could undertake foot-care activities. However, the true value of the FCCS cannot be determined until its ability to predict actual behaviour with respect to foot care is examined. These and other findings of this study are discussed in relation to their implications for clinical practice and for further research.

Download or read book Self Management in Chronic Illness written by Jose Frantz and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2021-04-20 with total page 193 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Self-management is a term that was used as early as the 1960s when it was applied during the rehabilitation of chronically ill children. Subsequently, self-management was applied as formalized programs for a variety of populations and health issues. In reflecting on self-management, it is important to note that it would be difficult for individuals not to be aware of their specific health behaviors, which could include unhealthy behaviors. As self-management has evolved, essential skills identified include behavioral modeling, decision making, planning, social persuasion, locating, accessing and utilizing resources, assisting individuals to form partnerships with their health care providers and taking action. These are key skills that would benefit health professional educators, clinicians and patients. This book, consisting of three parts, provides insights into the aspects of self-management as it relates to its definition and application. It highlights how self-management can be applied to various long-term health conditions, for different populations or target groups and in different contexts. The text provides an overview of self-management and the rationale for its applications by illustrating its use in specific clinical conditions and in different sub-populations and target groups. Academics can use the book as a textbook when teaching postgraduate and undergraduate students about self-management as a technique to facilitate community reintegration for individuals living with long-term conditions. It can also be used by clinicians to enhance their management of individuals with long-term conditions. Furthermore, researchers can use the text to expand and support their research in this area.

Download or read book Handbook of Psychology and Diabetes written by Clare Bradley and published by Psychology Press. This book was released on 1994 with total page 442 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This Handbook fulfils a pressing need within the area of psychological measurement in diabetes research and practice by providing access to material which has either been widely dispersed through the psychological and medical literature or has not previously been published. Journal articles describing the psychometric development of scales have rarely included the scales themselves but this book includes copies of scales and a wealth of additional information from unpublished theses, reports and recent manuscripts. You will find information about the reliability, validity, scoring, norms, and use of the measures in previous research presented in one volume. The Handbook is designed to help researchers and clinicians: - To select scales suitable for their purposes - To administer and score the scales correctly - To interpret the results appropriately. Dr. Clare Bradley is Reader in Health Psychology and Director of the Diabetes Research Group at Royal Holloway, University of London. Dr. Bradley and her research group have designed, developed and used a wide variety of measures of psychological processes and outcomes. Many of these measures have been designed and developed specifically for people with diabetes. Together with diabetes-specific psychological measures developed by other researchers internationally, these instruments have played an important part in facilitating patient-centred approaches to diabetes research and clinical practice.
