Book A Preliminary Study to Evaluate the Influence of Self efficacy  Self care  Knowledge of HbA1C and Medication Regimen Complexity on Tight Glycemic Control in Individuals with Type 2 Diabetes

Download or read book A Preliminary Study to Evaluate the Influence of Self efficacy Self care Knowledge of HbA1C and Medication Regimen Complexity on Tight Glycemic Control in Individuals with Type 2 Diabetes written by Jill L. Davenport and published by . This book was released on 2016 with total page 69 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The purpose of this study was to examine if relationships existed between the following variables: knowledge of HbA1C, reported self-efficacy, reported self-care, and tight glycemic control. In addition, gender was examined in relationship to self-efficacy, and reported self-care. The study also examined if a relationship existed between the complexity of the medication regime used to manage diabetes and report self-care, reported self-efficacy and tight glycemic control. A quantitative, cross-sectional, descriptive and correlational design via self-report questionnaires was used. A convenience sample was purposefully identified and selected from individuals with type 2 diabetes referred for diabetes education sessions or current or past outpatient cardiac and pulmonary rehabilitation participants identified as having type 2 diabetes. A total of 93 questionnaires were returned. The Self-Efficacy for Diabetes Scale (SES) Stanford Patient Education Research Center and the Self-Care Inventory-Revised were utilized. The study results revealed a correlation between knowledge of HbA1C and report level of self-efficacy (r = -.224, p = 0.004) and level of self-care (r = .217, p = 0.036). A correlation was also identified between gender and self-care score (r = .298, p = 0.004), with females reporting higher self-care, compared to males. There were no significant relationships between knowledge of HbA1C and tight glycemic control or between the complexity of the medication regimen to manage diabetes and reported levels of self-efficacy and self-care and tight glycemic control. Delaying or preventing health complications associated with diabetes can lead to improved quality of life and improved patient outcomes in patients with diabetes, as well as lower the financial burden associated with the complex care of these patients."--Page v.

Book Self Management in Chronic Illness

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.

  • Author : Institute of Medicine
  • Publisher : National Academies Press
  • Release : 2004-06-29
  • ISBN : 0309133319
  • Pages : 366 pages

Download or read book Health Literacy written by Institute of Medicine and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 2004-06-29 with total page 366 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: To maintain their own health and the health of their families and communities, consumers rely heavily on the health information that is available to them. This information is at the core of the partnerships that patients and their families forge with today's complex modern health systems. This information may be provided in a variety of forms â€" ranging from a discussion between a patient and a health care provider to a health promotion advertisement, a consent form, or one of many other forms of health communication common in our society. Yet millions of Americans cannot understand or act upon this information. To address this problem, the field of health literacy brings together research and practice from diverse fields including education, health services, and social and cultural sciences, and the many organizations whose actions can improve or impede health literacy. Health Literacy: Prescription to End Confusion examines the body of knowledge that applies to the field of health literacy, and recommends actions to promote a health literate society. By examining the extent of limited health literacy and the ways to improve it, we can improve the health of individuals and populations.

Book The Relationship Between Psychosocial Self efficacy and Self management Behavior in Native Americans with Type 2 Diabetes

Download or read book The Relationship Between Psychosocial Self efficacy and Self management Behavior in Native Americans with Type 2 Diabetes written by Donna M. Olson and published by . This book was released on 2005 with total page 366 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Abstract: The current study was designed to determine whether a linear relationship existed between psychosocial self-efficacy and diabetes self-management behavior in Native American people living in the U.S. Cheyenne-Arapaho people (N = 36) with type 2 diabetes aged 21 to 77, living in Western Oklahoma agreed to participate in the study. Participants were administered the Diabetes Empowerment Scale (DES; Anderson et al., 1995) to measure psychosocial self-efficacy and the Summary of Diabetes Self-Care Activities (SDSCA; Toobert & Glasgow, 1994) to measure levels of self-management behavior in a one-to-one interview format. Managing the psychosocial aspects of diabetes displayed a significant positive relationship to foot self-care behavior and knowledge of diabetes. All other aspects of psychosocial self-efficacy did not show a linear relationship to diabetes self-management behavior in this population. The results suggest that practitioners should focus on enhancing the ability of patients to manage the psychosocial aspects of diabetes through diabetes education. Future researchers could focus on environmental factors that impact self-management in this population.

Book Environmental Barriers  Self efficacy and the Direct and Indirect Effects of Diabetes specific Cultural Beliefs on Health Status in a Community Sample of Diabetic Patients

Download or read book Environmental Barriers Self efficacy and the Direct and Indirect Effects of Diabetes specific Cultural Beliefs on Health Status in a Community Sample of Diabetic Patients written by Lise Flores and published by . This book was released on 2004 with total page 182 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Type 2 diabetes mellitus represents a daunting self-management challenge due to its complicated daily treatment regimen which includes adhering to diet, exercise, and medication recommendations. Little research has evaluated perceived barriers to diabetes self-care in a group that is at particular risk for diabetic complications: U.S. Latinos. This study had two aims. The first was to provide evidence that experimental and validated self-report instruments selected for this study functioned in a comparable manner in both Spanish and English in a sample of low income, predominantly Spanish-speaking diabetic patients (n = 77). The second aim was to examine hypothesized relationships of selected predictors to two criterion variables measuring health status (i.e., glycosylated hemoglobin A1c and Diabetes Impact) using a method described by Baron & Kenny (1986). Predictors included age, education, and income as covariates, and perceived environmental barriers to self-care, self-efficacy for treatment adherence, fatalistic beliefs (external health locus of control), and Latino cultural diabetes beliefs. Potential moderator and mediator variables of the relationship between perceived barriers to self care and criterion variables included self-efficacy for treatment adherence, fatalistic beliefs and Latino cultural diabetes beliefs. Scales used in this study had coefficient alpha values ranging from .82-.96 in Spanish and .74-.97 in English and also demonstrated strong factor structure integrity. Bivariate correlations indicated that higher scores on perceived barriers to self-care were significantly related to lower self-efficacy scores [r = −.34, p

Book Health Promotion in Health Care     Vital Theories and Research

Download or read book Health Promotion in Health Care Vital Theories and Research written by Gørill Haugan and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2021-03-11 with total page 382 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This open access textbook represents a vital contribution to global health education, offering insights into health promotion as part of patient care for bachelor’s and master’s students in health care (nurses, occupational therapists, physiotherapists, radiotherapists, social care workers etc.) as well as health care professionals, and providing an overview of the field of health science and health promotion for PhD students and researchers. Written by leading experts from seven countries in Europe, America, Africa and Asia, it first discusses the theory of health promotion and vital concepts. It then presents updated evidence-based health promotion approaches in different populations (people with chronic diseases, cancer, heart failure, dementia, mental disorders, long-term ICU patients, elderly individuals, families with newborn babies, palliative care patients) and examines different health promotion approaches integrated into primary care services. This edited scientific anthology provides much-needed knowledge, translating research into guidelines for practice. Today’s medical approaches are highly developed; however, patients are human beings with a wholeness of body-mind-spirit. As such, providing high-quality and effective health care requires a holistic physical-psychological-social-spiritual model of health care is required. A great number of patients, both in hospitals and in primary health care, suffer from the lack of a holistic oriented health approach: Their condition is treated, but they feel scared, helpless and lonely. Health promotion focuses on improving people’s health in spite of illnesses. Accordingly, health care that supports/promotes patients’ health by identifying their health resources will result in better patient outcomes: shorter hospital stays, less re-hospitalization, being better able to cope at home and improved well-being, which in turn lead to lower health-care costs. This scientific anthology is the first of its kind, in that it connects health promotion with the salutogenic theory of health throughout the chapters. the authors here expand the understanding of health promotion beyond health protection and disease prevention. The book focuses on describing and explaining salutogenesis as an umbrella concept, not only as the key concept of sense of coherence.

Book Is There a Relationship Between Self efficacy and Diabetic Foot Self care

Download or read book Is There a Relationship Between Self efficacy and Diabetic Foot Self care written by Stacey Wendling and published by . This book was released on 2014 with total page 61 pages. 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.
