Take time to listen: community health worker perceptions on self-management trainer role

ABSTRACT This study examines the effectiveness of self-management training with emphasis on trainer traits. Twenty-two community health workers (CHWs) participated in a two week-long self-management training program. Twenty were interviewed a week later to examine their perceptions of the training and the trainer. Participants expressed satisfaction with the training and highlighted four themes around how trainers must play a transformational role grounded in cultural humility: intentional relationship building, commitment to ongoing learning and transfer of knowledge, participatory engagement, and empowerment. CHW self-management trainers who are culturally attuned with participants’ backgrounds stand a better chance of conducting training that is sensitive to the needs of CHWs and their clients.

Effects of hospital drug self-management training on medication compliance in patients with cardiovascular disease after discharge

Objective To explore the effects of hospital drug self-management training on medication compliance in patients with cardiovascular disease after discharge. Methods From March 2016 to February 2017, a total of 120 patients with cardiovascular disease in the Department of Internal Cardiovascular of Wuxi People's Hospital were selected and randomly divided into experimental group and control group, with 60 cases in each. The patients in the experimental group were trained with medication self-management mode, while the patients in the control group were treated in routine care. The scores of medication administration and the scores of 2 weeks, 1 month and half year after discharge were recorded, and the satisfaction of medication management and education mode were compared between the two groups. Results The scores of medication administration of 2 weeks, 1 month and half year after discharge, and the satisfaction of medication management and education mode after discharge 2 weeks were all higher than those of the control group (t=5.900, 7.058, 11.412, 4.693; P<0.001) . Conclusions The hospital drugs self-management training can effectively improve the medication compliance in cardiovascular disease patients after discharge. Key words: Cardiovascular diseases; Self-management; Medication adherence

The effect of self-management training on pain intensity in patients with knee osteoarthritis referring to orthopedic clinic of Imam Hossein Hospital in Malayer

Background: Knee esthetic anesthesia is one of the most common diseases of old age. Pain, which limits the activity of patients, is the most common symptom of the disease. Self-management is one of the best approaches for reducing the symptoms of osteoarthritis. Aims and Objectives: The present study aimed to determine the effect of self-management training on pain intensity in patients with knee osteoarthritis. Materials and Methods: The present quasi-experimental study was conducted on 100 patients with knee osteoarthritis who referred to Imam Hossein Malayer Hospital; subjects were selected by convenience sampling method and randomly divided into two groups of test and control. Required data were collected using a questionnaire including demographic information and pain intensity questionnaire, which was measured by visual analog scale. Questionnaires were completed before and 2 months after the intervention by both groups. Then, pain intensity was evaluated and compared in two groups. Data were analyzed using SPSS version 22, Chi-square, independent t-test, and paired t-test. Results: The results showed that the mean score of pain severity was not significantly different between the two groups before and after the intervention (P < 0.05). There was a statistically significant decrease between the mean scores of pain intensity before (3.97 ± 0.91) and after intervention (2.77 ± 1.03) (P < 0.05). Furthermore, there was a statistically significant difference between the mean pain scores in the intervention and control groups after intervention (P < 0.05). However, in the control group, there was no statistically significant difference between the mean scores of pain severity before the intervention (3.96 ± 1.12) and after intervention (3.64 ±0.8) (P < 0.05). Conclusion: The results of this study showed that considering proper diet and using non-medical pain relief methods such as exercise and stretching exercises and water treatment during self-management can reduce the severity of pain in knee osteoarthritis patients. Therefore, the implementation of self-management program by patients can be effective in reducing the incapacity and improves their range of motion.

Effect of self-management training on adherence to medications among community residents with chronic schizophrenia: a singleblind randomized controlled trial in Shanghai, China.

BackgroundMany community dwelling individuals with schizophrenia do not take medications regularly and, thus, are prone to frequent relapses.AimEvaluate the effectiveness of self-management training on adherence to medications and relapse among individuals with chronic schizophrenia living in the community.MethodsA total of 201 individuals with chronic schizophrenia living in the urban and rural communities of Shanghai Municipality were randomized into a treatment as usual control group (n=98) or a selfmanagement intervention group (n=103) that received weekly self-management skills training for 6 months followed by 24 months of monthly group booster sessions in which a community health worker reviewed patients’ self-management checklists. Two psychiatrists blind to the treatment status of patients, assessed adherence to medications using the Morisky Medication Adherence Scale and patients’ insight into their illness using the Scale to Assess Unawareness of Mental Disorders (SAUMD) at baseline and 30 months after baseline. A total of 194 individuals (95.6%) completed the study.ResultsThere were no differences between groups at baseline, but after 30 months the intervention group had significantly better medication compliance, significantly greater insight into their illness, and (by self-report) were using significantly higher dosages of antipsychotic medication. Only 2 (1.9%) of the 103 intervention group participants relapsed (i.e., experienced one or more re-hospitalizations) over the 30 months of follow-up, but 14 (14.3%) of the 98 control group subjects relapsed (X2=8.83, p=0.003). ConclusionsGiven the large sample size, relatively long follow-up, randomized design, and single-blind evaluation of outcomes the dramatic reduction in relapse and improvements in medication adherence and insight identified in this study are robust findings. These results extended our previous findings, which demonstrated the benefit of self-management training on improving the symptoms and social functioning of individuals with chronic schizophrenia living in the community. Cost-benefit studies are now needed to assess the feasibility of up-scaling this self-management intervention to a wide range of communities.

Sharing, caring and learning to take control: Self-management training for people with arthritis

Community-based health interventions have been shown to be effective in promoting self-management amongst people with arthritis in the USA, but have rarely been evaluated in a UK context. The aim of this study was to determine the effectiveness of self-management training among people with arthritis against the backdrop of the UK system of health care. The study was a multiple baseline, pre-test post-test design of 117 people attending Arthritis Self-Management Programmes (ASMP) delivered in community settings on a nationwide basis. Data were collected by self-administered questionnaires at two points in time: prior to the ASMP and after the ASMP, four months from baseline. The sample comprised 81% women, with a mean age of 59 and mean disease duration of 14.5 years. Most participants had either rheumatoid arthritis (RA) or osteoarthritis (OA). Results showed that after four months, participants demonstrated significant increases in arthritis self-efficacy (p < 0.0005), cognitive symptom management (p < 0.0005), communication with doctors (p = 0.001), use of flexibility exercises (p = 0.0001), strengthening exercises (p = 0.0008) and relaxation (p < 0.00005). In addition, significant decreases were found in terms of pain (p = 0.002), fatigue (p = 0.002) and anxiety (p = 0.002). A trend towards improvement on depression and disease acceptance was noted. The results suggest that group interventions for people with arthritis can enhance perceived control of arthritis, can encourage the use of cognitive-behavioural techniques, help to reduce symptoms of pain and fatigue, and can improve psychological wellbeing.
