Abstract
Objectives Interstitial Lung Disease (ILD) is a severe and rapidly progressing disease with a high fatality rate. Patient education (PE) has been demonstrated to promote long-term adherence to exercise and lifestyle improvements by assisting patients in developing self-management techniques. Our scoping review's goal was to chart out the prevailing level of research about the content, processes, and effectiveness of PE for patients with ILD. Methods The relevant databases were searched using the rules provided by Arksey and O'Malley in 2005 and the Joanna Briggs Institute reviewers' manual 2015: an approach for JBI scoping reviews. Individuals with ILD, published in English between the years of inception and 2020, and describing PE administered by various healthcare practitioners were among the 355 studies found and reviewed. Thirteen studies met these criteria. Results PE delivery process, delivery techniques, quality of life assessments, common PE themes, and healthcare professional participation were all recognized and cataloged. Conclusion Despite the fact that healthcare professionals (physicians, nurses, and physiotherapists) provide PE to patients with ILD regularly, the PE provided varies greatly (contents of PE, process of delivery and delivery techniques). During the scoping review, a significant variation in the themes was addressed. They could not provide any evidence-based specific recommendations for all healthcare practitioners due to the studies' heterogeneity and lack of effectiveness measures.

A web-based psychological support program for caregivers of children with rare chronic diseases: a randomized controlled trial. Orphanet J Rare Dis 2024; 19:27. [PMID: 38281056 PMCID: PMC10821309 DOI: 10.1186/s13023-024-03029-9] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/25/2023] [Accepted: 01/19/2024] [Indexed: 01/29/2024] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Approximately 50% of rare diseases have symptom onset during childhood. A high level of nursing care and an often uncertain prognosis put caregivers of the affected children at high risk for psychological distress. At the same time, their caregivers have limited access to appropriate psychological care. The aim of this study was to evaluate a web-based psychological support program for caregivers of children with chronic rare diseases (WEP-CARE). METHODS German-speaking parents (recruited between May 2016 and March 2018) caring for children aged 0-25 years with a rare disease showing clinically relevant anxiety symptoms, were assigned to either the WEP-CARE (n = 38) or treatment as usual (n = 36) condition within a randomized controlled trial. The primary outcome measure was parental anxiety, assessed with the Generalized Anxiety Disorder Questionnaire (GAD-7). Secondary outcomes were fear of disease progression, depression, coping, quality of life and user satisfaction. The group differences were tested through repeated-measures analyses of variance. The WEP-CARE group was additionally followed up three months after the treatment. RESULTS A significant time-group interaction was found for anxiety (F (1,35) = 6.13, p = .016), fear of disease progression (F (1,331) = 18.23, p < .001), depression (F (1,74) = 10.79, p = .002) and coping (F (1,233) = 7.02, p = .010), suggesting superiority of the WEP-CARE group. Sustainability of the treatment gains regarding anxiety, fear of disease progression and coping was confirmed at the 6-month follow-up assessment (p < .01). A significant interaction effect could not be found for quality of life (F(1,2) = 0.016; p = .899). Both participating parents and therapists were satisfied with WEP-CARE. CONCLUSIONS Our results underline the efficacy and feasibility of WEP-CARE for parents of children with various rare diseases.

[PMID: 37647790 DOI: 10.1016/j.pedn.2023.08.016] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/02/2022] [Revised: 08/13/2023] [Accepted: 08/14/2023] [Indexed: 09/01/2023]
Abstract
OBJECTIVES A multimedia medication training program for parents and legal guardians of children with chronic kidney disease (CKD) aimed to improve comprehension CKD and general information about medications used in pediatric patients attending The Foundation for Children with Kidney Disease (FUNDANIER, Guatemala City). METHODS A quasi-experimental study was carried out to measure the impact of the educational intervention on medication knowledge, at FUNDANIER from September to October 2019. Means and standard deviations was used to described test results. A Wilcoxon test was performed, to compare scores of pre and post-tests. Odds Ratio (OR) was used to determine if there was an improvement in the knowledge score before and after the intervention. Results There was significant improvement in knowledge scores knowledge before and after the intervention(27/35 versus 33/35, P < 0.005). Mestizo participants had higher odds of improvement before and after the intervention (OR 7, CI: 0.6-78). Parent-guardians with prior education, and who spoke Spanish had higher odds of improved knowledge scores (OR 3.2, CI:0.3-35; OR 1.1 CI: 0.1-14 respectively). CONCLUSION Caregivers who participated in the educational workshop improved and retained information related to CKD comprehension and medications used. This study provides a model for educational modules that can be used, tested, and applied in other chronic disease settings in low to middle income countries. PRACTICE IMPLICATIONS A culturally relevant multimedia CKD educational platform was effective in improving medication knowledge among parent/guardians of children with CKD in a low literacy setting.

Abstract
This exploratory study aimed to gain an understanding of carer reported experiences derived specifically from persons caring for someone with a rare disease. The survey took place online on the SmartSurvey platform from November 2019 to January 2020. The facilitated workshop took place in Bangor Carnegie Library, Northern Ireland. To be eligible to participate in the online survey respondents had to be adults caring for someone with a rare disease. Fifty-seven respondents took part, 15.8% male, 84.2% female. Thirty-two attendees were part of the facilitated workshop. While carers reported several positive aspects of their caring role, the majority of comments highlighted challenges such as sub-optimal interactions with healthcare professionals, insufficient (or absent) emotional, psychological and social support, lack of financial support and lack of awareness of existing support services. It is important that strategies are put in place to ensure that carers are given the time they need to care for themselves, and that awareness is raised of what support options are available for carers of people with a rare disease(s) from health and social care providers, charities or support groups.

Genomic testing for children with interstitial and diffuse lung disease (chILD): parent satisfaction, understanding and health-related quality of life. BMJ Open Respir Res 2022; 9:9/1/e001139. [PMID: 35190460 PMCID: PMC8862491 DOI: 10.1136/bmjresp-2021-001139] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/09/2021] [Accepted: 02/02/2022] [Indexed: 12/02/2022] Open
Abstract
Objective Research is needed to determine best practice for genomic testing in the context of child interstitial or diffuse lung disease (chILD). We explored parent’s and child’s health-related quality of life (HRQoL), parents’ perceived understanding of a genomic testing study, satisfaction with information and the study and decisional regret to undertake genomic testing. Methods Parents of children with diagnosed or suspected chILD who were enrolled in a genomic sequencing study were invited to complete questionnaires pretesting (T1) and after receiving the result (T2). Results Parents’ (T1, n=19; T2, n=17) HRQoL was lower than population norms. Study satisfaction (T1) and perceived understanding (T2) were positively correlated (rs=0.68, p=0.014). Satisfaction with information (T1 and T2) and decisional regret (T2) were negatively correlated (T1 rs=−0.71, p=0.01; T2 rs=−0.56, p=0.03). Parents reported wanting more frequent communication with staff throughout the genomic sequencing study, and greater information about the confidentiality of test results. Conclusions Understanding of genomic testing, satisfaction with information and participation and decisional regret are inter-related. Pretest consultations are important and can allow researchers to explain confidentiality of data and the variable turnaround times for receiving a test result. Staff can also update parents when there will be delays to receiving a result.
