Book excerpt: Title:Self-efficacy, self-care and glycemic control in Saudi Arabian patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus.Ahmad MJ. Saad, MSc 1, Zeina MH. Younes, MSc1, Hafez Ahmad, PhD 2, Jason A Brown PhD 3 , Rafat M. Al Owesie MD 3, Ahmed AK. Hassoun MD 11Dubai Diabetes Center, Dubai Health Authority, Dubai, UAE2Dubai Medical College, Dubai, UAE 3Sultan Bin AbdulAziz Humanitarian City, Riyadh, KSA Introduction:-Diabetes self-management (DSM) is a very challenging task and demands the involvement and contribution of multiple treatment areas. Diabetes self-management adopts healthy lifestyle behaviors, which have an effect on glycemic control for patients with diabetes mellitus. Diabetes is a disease that requires change in behavior, and behavioral changes are affected by several factors. One of the crucial factors in attaining behavioral goals is self-efficacy; defined as the individual's beliefs about personal capabilities to perform specific behaviors that are necessary to achieve their goals. Diabetes management self-efficacy, therefore, refers to the patient's confidence in his/her ability to perform several of the DSM behaviors; and improving DSM is an ongoing challenge for health care teams globally, including the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia (KSA). As a result, identifying DSM behaviors and diabetes management self-efficacy and examining their effects on glycemic control, as well as identifying which areas of diabetes management self-efficacy and DSM behaviors patients need additional support in, can assist health care teams in achieving better diabetes control.Aim:To determine the prevalence of diabetes self-care activities among patients with type 2 diabetes and to examine the association between socio-demographic and clinical parameters, diabetes self-care activities, and glycemic control among patients with type 2 diabetes.Methods:A cross sectional study was conducted among 123 patients with diabetes at the Sultan Bin Abdulaziz Humanitarian City (SBAHC) in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia. In order to be included in the study, patients must have been diagnosed with type 2 diabetes, they had to be 25 years of age and above, mentally competent, and able to communicate verbally and provide informed consent. Patients with type 1 diabetes, pregnant women, patients experiencing cognitive impairment and any patient who did not agree to participate in the study were excluded. Interviews took place in the visit room individually and lasted approximately 15 minutes. Subjectu2019s verbal and written consent was obtained.The data were collected via medical records and a face-to-face interview was undertaken with consecutive patients attending SBAHC. During the interview, the Diabetes Management Self-Efficacy Scale (DMSES) and the revised Summary of Diabetes Self-Care Activities Scale (SDSCA) questionnaires were completed for each participant. A regression model was used to examine the variables that predicted glycemic control. Moreover, a regression analysis examining the effect of each self-efficacy subscale on its respective diabetes self -management (DSM) behavior was carried out.Result:The most frequently reported DSM behaviors were foot care (mean u00b1 SD = 4.4 u00b11.83, median = 4.5) followed by medication taking self-management behavior (mean u00b1 SD= 4.15 u00b11.68, median = 3.5). The least frequently reported DSM behaviors were exercise self-management behavior and blood sugar testing behavior. Spearman regression analysis showed that self-efficacy was associated with higher levels of diet, exercise, blood sugar testing, and foot care self-management behaviors.Spearman regression analysis assessing the association between self-efficacy and self-management behavior in relation to the five listed parameters.Independent variablestRtAdjusted R2tP valueDiet t0.390t0.145t0.000Exercise t0.505t0.248t0.000Blood sugar testing and control t0.318t0.094t0.000Medical treatment t0.082t0.002t0.369Foot care t0.439t0.186t0.000 A final parsimonious regression model done including all of the statistically significant predictors from the subset analysis showed that diet self-management behaviors and oral hypoglycemic agents use were independent predictors of glycemic control HbA1c

Book excerpt: Diabetes mellitus (DM) has been a long standing healthcare problem and is the leading cause of morbidity by disease because of associated cardiovascular problems. It is a chronic disorder that requires lifetime control and management. Adherence to diabetes management which can contribute to glycemic control has been proven to prevent complications brought about by this endocrine problem. In spite of its importance, problems of non-adherence still exist because treatment regimens prescribed for patients are complex. Hence this study was conducted to develop and test the effectiveness of the researcher-devised ‘MEDS’ planner 9M-medication, E-exercise, D-diet, S-self-monitoring of blood glucose or SMBG self-efficacy adherence of patients to care plan. It was theoretically anchored on Azjen’s Theory of Planned Behavior and Bandura’s Social Cognitive Theory. This study employed two groups, random assignment, pretest-posttest quasi-experimental design and was conducted in Bustos, Bulacan, Philippines. A total of 48 DM 2 diagnosed patients currently following prescribed management were recruited through purposive sampling and were assigned randomly to experimental and comparison groups. The experimental intervention is ‘MEDS’ Planner, a researcher-devised self-management strategy which includes specific plan of care on the four aspects of DM 2 management 9medication, exercise, diet, and SMBG.) Outcomes were measured by the Summary of Diabetes Self-care Activities (SDSCA) and Self-Efficacy for Diabetes (SED). To analyze the pretest and posttest scores of both groups, Wilcoxon signed-rank test was used for SDCA and paired t-test for SEDC. To compare the improvements of both groups, Mann Whitney U test was applied for SDSCA and multiple linear regression analysis (ANCOVA) was used for SED. DM 2 patients who utilized ‘MEDS’ Planner with Motivational Interviewing in their care plan showed significant improvement on 2 components of SDSCA: exercise (p=0.0038) and self-monitoring of blood glucose (p=0.0001). Medication (p=0.6644) and diet (p=0.0705) components did not improve significantly. Significant improvement of self-efficacy (p=0.0001) of experimental group participants was observed.

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 Handbook of Psychology and Diabetes

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.

All rights not granted by the above license are retained by the author. Abstract: The increasing prevalence causes great burden to global health. Although there is not yet an agreement on the effect of SMBG for non-insulin-treating type 2 DM patients in comprehensive management, some guidelines recommended all diabetes patients should conduct SMBG. This literature review of 5 meta-analyses and 13 randomized controlled clinical trials assessed the effectiveness of SMBG in glucose control (HbA1c), detection of hypoglycemia, non-glycemic outcomes and potential influence factors(duration of diabetes, baseline HaB1c level, SMBG frequency, SMBG duration, co-interventions) of SMBG efficacy on type 2 diabetes patients not using insulin. The method of this literature review is through a comprehensive electronic literature search of Ovid MEDLINE, EMBASE, the Cochrane Library and China Journals Full-text Database. Both English and Chinese language literatures were reviewed. All meta-analysis and randomized controlled trials of type 2 diabetes non-insulin-using patients taking SMBG to improve the glycemic control and other outcomes were included. In these studies, absolute HbA1c reduction, recognized episodes of hypoglycemia, wellbeing, QALY, DALY, complication morbidity, mortality were used as outcome measures if available. A score list based on the PRISMA Statement was used to evaluate the quality of meta-analyses. 5 meta-analysis all reported a statistical significant but clinical modest-moderate difference in HbA1c reduction between SMBG and non-SMBG group, a new published randomized controlled trial with small cohort enrolled in none of the meta- analyses did not support this conclusion. Evidence showed frequency of SMBG did not influence the efficacy of SMBG, co-interventions as education/consultation, regimen change played a positive roll on SMBG efficacy. Whether baseline HbA1c, duration of diabetes or SMBG itself have an effect on SMBG efficacy was still unknown. There is inadequate evidence of SMBG efficacy of detection of hypoglycemia of patient-oriented outcomes. No eligible Chinese article was defined to enroll in this review. This review did not support to suggest all type 2 diabetes patients not using insulin to conduct SMBG at the frequency the guidelines recommended. Carefully designed and longer-term trials are needed to obtain evidence that is more robust. Further investigation would provide more evidence of the characteristics of potential influence factors, which may help to define the specific population or optimal mode that guarantee the greatest efficacy of SMBG.

Book Patient Knowledge  Perceived Self efficacy  and Self management Among Patients with Type II Diabetes Mellitus

Download or read book Patient Knowledge Perceived Self efficacy and Self management Among Patients with Type II Diabetes Mellitus written by Razel Bacuetes Milo and published by . This book was released on 2017 with total page 130 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the United States (U.S.), Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus (T2DM) has reached epidemic portions with a prevalence of approximately 29.1 million people and is the seventh-leading cause of death (Centers for Disease Control and Prevention [CDC], 2014; Healthy People 2020, n.d.). The U.S. spends an estimated $245 billion in direct and indirect medical costs. The indirect costs include disability and lost productivity (CDC, 2014). Previous studies focusing on diabetes education acknowledge the significance of self-management activities in managing T2DM. Extant studies examining self-management and treatment outcomes for persons with T2DM have paid limited attention to the relationship between patients' disease perceptions, diabetes knowledge, self-efficacy, self-management practices, and glycemic control. The purpose of this investigation was to identify factors and outcomes associated with healthy diabetes self-management practices among a cohort of individuals with T2DM residing in southern California. Nola Pender's Health Promotion Model (Pender et al., 2015) guided the study. Specific aims include: 1) Provide conceptual clarity for the phenomenon of perception through a concept analysis using Walker and Avant (2011) methodology, 2) Identify factors and outcomes associated with diabetes self-management through a systematic review of the literature, and 3) Examine relationships among perceived self-efficacy, specific patient characteristics, diabetic knowledge, self-management practices, and HbA1C values among a sample of individuals with T2DM living in southern California. The research aims provided the structure to generate new scientific data and evidence towards the improvement of self-management practices and those characteristics leading to improved HbA1C outcomes.

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
