This book was released on 2021 with total page 13 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Diabetes continues to be one of the leading causes of death within the United States, with the Hispanic population having an especially high risk of developing diabetes. Understanding the different factors that may affect adherence to diabetes self-care, such as self-efficacy, duration of diabetes, and patient treatment satisfaction is important to reduce diabetes-related health complications. The aim of this study is to examine the relationship between patient self-efficacy for diabetes management and satisfaction with treatment, as well as whether the duration of diabetes is associated with self-efficacy for disease management. Baseline data was collected on 16 Hispanic patients with diabetes at a free clinic. Treatment satisfaction was measured using the Diabetes Treatment Satisfaction Questionnaire status (DTSQs) and self-efficacy was measured using the Perceived Diabetes Self-Management Scale (PDSMS). A significant positive correlation was found between diabetes treatment satisfaction (DTSQ) and self-efficacy (PDSMS). No significant relationship was found between duration of diabetes and self-efficacy. Our study results suggest that patients with high treatment satisfaction also have high self-efficacy levels, or vice versa. Diabetes healthcare providers looking to improve patient treatment satisfaction may benefit from implementing programs to improve patient self-efficacy. Conversely, healthcare providers looking to improve patient self-efficacy may benefit from addressing patients’ treatment satisfaction.
Book Synopsis Effects of a Peer-led Educational Intervention on Support Resources, Self-effcacy, Depression, Beliefs, and Self-management Behaviors in Latinos with Type 2 Diabetes by :
Download or read book Effects of a Peer-led Educational Intervention on Support Resources, Self-effcacy, Depression, Beliefs, and Self-management Behaviors in Latinos with Type 2 Diabetes written by and published by . This book was released on 2013 with total page 47 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) affects roughly 20 million individuals in the US and this amount is projected to more than double by the year 2034. Latinos are at disproportionately greater risk for developing T2DM and often exhibit poorer adherence to diabetes self-management recommendations, and in turn, worse glycemic control and more diabetes-related complications, compared to non-Latino Whites. Project Dulce was a randomized controlled trial to investigate the effects of a peer-educator led, culturally-appropriate intervention designed to improve diabetes self-management and glycemic control among Latinos with poorly controlled diabetes. The current project investigated the effects of the Project Dulce intervention on diabetes self-management behavior, support resources, self-efficacy, depressive symptomatology, and culture-based beliefs about diabetes, using the Resources and Supports for Self-Management (RSSM) as a conceptual framework. Study participants (N = 207) completed clinical and self-report assessments at baseline, post-intervention (4 months), and follow-up (10 months). Study hypotheses were evaluated via multi-level models using Hierarchical Linear Modeling (HLM) 6.08. The study aimed to assess whether the Project Dulce peer-education group exhibited greater improvements over time in diabetes self-management behaviors, depressive symptoms, support resources for disease management and self-efficacy, as well as culture-based beliefs about diabetes, compared to the control ("care as usual") group. An exploratory aim of the study investigated whether "dosage" (i.e., classes attended) was associated with greater improvements in the Project Dulce intervention group. Analyses revealed improvements in dietary self-management behaviors, depressive symptomatology, self-efficacy, culture-based beliefs about diabetes, support resources for disease management (i.e., friends and family, healthcare providers, neighborhood, and personal support), and self-efficacy, over time, across groups. Analyses also revealed that Project Dulce group participants showed greater improvements in personal support resources for disease management and endorsed fewer culture-based beliefs about diabetes over time, compared to the control group. Furthermore, "dosage" (attendance) analyses, including only Project Dulce group participants, revealed that greater dosage (i.e., attending more sessions) led to greater improvements over time in support resources for disease management (self and neighborhood support), as well as exercise and blood-glucose checking self-management behaviors, compared to those who attended fewer classes. Although analyses revealed that Project Dulce group participants showed improvements over time with increased attendance, this was not significantly greater than improvements experienced by the control group. Possible explanations for improvements in the control group may relate to participants' motivation for change, or contact with the peer-educator during assessments which may have conveyed support or may have created expectancy effects (i.e., "social desirability effects") leading to biased self-report responding. Findings from "Dosage" analyses (including Project Dulce group participants only) indicate that individuals with type 2 diabetes who enroll in the Project Dulce intervention and attend more classes may experience greater support resources from their neighborhood and self-support, which may lead to improved self-management behavior, compared to individuals who attend fewer classes. Distinction of assessor and interventionist roles, and use of objective behavioral data collection methods, may shed light on the degree to which interventions such as Project Dulce can modify health behavior among this high-risk population.
Book Synopsis 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 by : Lise Flores
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

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 Synopsis An Active Approach to Diabetes Self-management by : Jessica Yelena Breland
Download or read book An Active Approach to Diabetes Self-management written by Jessica Yelena Breland and published by . This book was released on 2013 with total page 74 pages. 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.
Book Synopsis The Daily Self-management of Diabetes Mellitus by : Billy Fred Small
Download or read book The Daily Self-management of Diabetes Mellitus written by Billy Fred Small and published by . This book was released on 2018 with total page 244 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study examined the diabetic self-management behavior of low-income, uninsured study participants receiving treatment at the Greenville Free Medical Clinic located in Greenville, South Carolina. The study examined how individual self-perception, self-efficacy and self-empowerment influence the daily self-management of diabetes across different groups of diabetic adults. Aftican American men and women were compared to their non-African American counterparts for insight into why one group is statistically much more likely to mismanage the self-treatment of diabetes. The study's theoretical framework was based on the health belief model and the study design encompasses a purposive convenience type population (n=110) sampling method. The principal investigator analyzed all data collected to better understand how different groups of participants may differ in individual daily diabetic management regimens while focusing mainly on group differences in diabetic self-management, diabetic self-care and overall self-empowerment in African American men and women as compared to non-African American men and women. Keywords: health care disparities, Health Belief Model, diabetes education, behavior attrition
Book Synopsis Correlates of Diabetes Self-management Among Filipinos by : Dinnah Lumibao Didulo
Download or read book Correlates of Diabetes Self-management Among Filipinos written by Dinnah Lumibao Didulo and published by . This book was released on 2017 with total page 73 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Among immigrants in the United States, Filipinos are the fourth largest group by country of origin with projections to triple by 2030. Despite current protocols to identify risks for diabetes, a gap exists in diagnosing and treating Filipinos with the disease. Knowledge about Filipinos and their health is imprecise because national data used to track disease prevalence does not identify Filipinos separately from the Asian and Asian-Pacific Islander group. The purpose of this study is to identify factors that influence effective diabetes self-management among a sample of Filipinos. Specific aims include: 1. Describe the characteristics of a sample of Filipinos with pre-diabetes and Type 2 diabetes mellitus. 2. Examine the relationships between health literacy, self-efficacy, depression, select demographic variables and characteristics (e.g. socio-economic status, age, gender, marital status, education level, year of migration to the U.S., language spoken at home and in the community, language read and understand, years diagnosed with diabetes, presence of blood glucose machine, oral glucose prescription, smoking, hypertension, exercise) and diabetes self-management practices in a sample of Filipinos with pre-diabetes and Type 2 diabetes. 3. Identify factors that increase the probability (odds) for effective self-management of HgbA1C among a sample of Filipinos with pre-diabetes and Type 2 diabetes mellitus. 4. To gain a broader understanding of the barriers to prescribed self-management practices in a subset of Filipinos with pre-diabetes and Type 2 diabetes mellitus. Methods: Quantitative and Qualitative approaches were used for this study. Quantitative: A descriptive correlational design. A convenience sample of 99 Filipinos was recruited and enrolled over a 6-month period, from 2 private practice clinics and the community in southern California. Inclusion Criteria: 18 to 70 years old, pre-diabetes (HgbA1C 5.7-6.4%) or Type 2 diabetes (HgbA1C ≥ 6.5%). Exclusion Criteria: Type 1 diabetes, and medical diagnosis of dementia or depression. Participants completed demographic questions, Diabetes Management Self-Efficacy Scale (DMSES), Patient Health Questionnaire (PHQ-9) and the 3-Health Literacy (3-HL) scale. Descriptive statistics were used for all analysis variables to describe participant characteristics. Spearman Rho correlation and logistic regression analyses were used to examine the relationships among patient characteristics, diabetes self-efficacy, diabetes related emotional distress, diabetes health literacy, and HgbA1C level. A logistic regression model containing 5 independent variables (takes pills, hypertension, blood glucose machine, times blood glucose checked, and years diagnosed with diabetes) was statistically significant X2(5, N=94) = 40.62, p Implications: This study addressed this gap in the knowledge of the predictors of effective diabetes self-management among a sample of Filipinos. Study outcomes provide valuable information to inform practitioners, administrators, and policymakers in the development and implementation of more efficient, patient-based care to increase type 2 diabetic patient engagement in self-management practices, improve patient satisfaction, health, and lower healthcare costs.
Book Synopsis Self-Management of Type 2 Diabetes in Appalachina Women by :
Download or read book Self-Management of Type 2 Diabetes in Appalachina Women written by and published by . This book was released on 2007 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Gender, minority, and regional-related disparities have been documented in diabetes management. Self-efficacy, the belief in one's ability to carry out the actions mandated by a task, has been identified as a key predictor in glycemic control; however, it has not been investigated in rural, female populations. This crosssectional, correlation investigation examined the relationships among self-efficacy, depression, and diabetes self-care management in women living in Appalachia with type 2 diabetes. Using Banduraâs Social Cognitive Theory, 85 women ages âÆ 21 with type 2 diabetes for a minimum of 6 months who were residents in Appalachia completed the 1) Diabetes Self-Efficacy Scale, 2) Beck Depression Inventory-II, 3)Summary of Diabetes Self-Care Activities, and a 4) Diabetes Health-Related Demographics tool. Descriptive statistics detailed the sample characteristics. ANOVA, chi-square, and independent ttests were computed for between group differences as they related to depression, various physiologic states, presence of self-efficacy sources, and glycosylated hemoglobin. Pearson correlation coefficients were used to describe the relationships between selfefficacy, depression, and self-care management. Multiple linear regression analyses examined prediction models for glucose control while controlling for potential confounders. Eighty-four Caucasian and one African-American enrolled in the study with a mean age of 61. The mean time since diabetes diagnosis was 7 years with a mean glycosylated hemoglobin value of 6.9% (SD=1.3). Higher self-efficacy scores were associated with a lower glycosylated hemoglobin (r-.30, p=.005) and ability to choose foods best to maintain a healthy eating plan(r-.415, p=.001). The sources of self-efficacy associated with enhanced self-care management were mastery experience and vicarious experience. There were no significant relationships between self-efficacy and depression or depression and glycosylated hemoglobin. The diabetes self-c.

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.
Book Synopsis Psychological Aspects of Inflammatory Bowel Disease by : Simon R. Knowles
Download or read book Psychological Aspects of Inflammatory Bowel Disease written by Simon R. Knowles and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2014-09-19 with total page 253 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the Western world around 360 in every 100,000 individuals have inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), a relapsing-remitting autoimmune disease that affects the gastrointestinal tract. Its impact on individual functioning across physical and psychosocial domains is significant and psychological distress is a common feature, with research suggesting that active IBD is associated with one of the highest rates of depression and anxiety of all chronic illnesses. Despite the high prevalence of mental health co-morbidities in IBD, psychological illness remains largely undertreated, with studies showing that 60% of IBD patients experiencing mental health problems do not receive adequate help. In this book, Knowles and Mikocka-Walus bring together world experts who practice integrated and holistic approach in their care for IBD patients, to provide an overview of research across a range of topics associated with the biopsychosocial treatment of IBD. Each chapter provides an up-to-date comprehensive consolidation and evaluation of the current literature alongside recommendations for practice. Key themes include: current understanding of the interrelationship of the neurological and biological aspects of IBD common concerns and issues individuals with IBD face exploring challenges across individual life-stages current evidence for psychosocial interventions recommendations for future directions of biopsychosocial work. Psychological Aspects of Inflammatory Bowel Disease: A biopsychosocial approach is a key resource for researchers, practitioners and academics considering psychosocial aspects of the disease and psychological interventions. It will also appeal to health psychologists and mental health practitioners working with clients with IBD, as well as gastroenterologists interested in a comprehensive and holistic approach to IBD management.
