Abstract
Key Points
Support programs for self-management are underutilized among people with CKD.Implementing a smartphone support tool for self-monitoring physical activity and BP was feasible among people with CKD and hypertension.Despite low digital health literacy, Supporting Self-Management of Healthy Behaviors was observed to be readily usable because of high levels of adherence and usability scores.
Background
Support programs for self-management are underutilized among people with CKD. We examined the feasibility of a smartphone-based intervention to support physical activity and BP monitoring, Supporting Self-Management of Healthy Behaviors (SMART-HABITS), for individuals with CKD and hypertension.
Methods
SMART-HABITS was piloted in a 12-week randomized cross-over trial among people with CKD and hypertension. Participants were asked to monitor BP ≥3-times/wk and step counts ≥5-times/wk. Participants were randomized to BP communication approach–self-report through text message for 6 weeks versus automatic reporting with a smartphone application (app) paired to a Bluetooth enabled BP machine for the alternate 6 weeks. The approach to monitoring and reporting steps was the same during both phases. Primary outcomes were adoption (retention and use of SMART-HABITS dashboard), adherence (% of transmitted BP and step counts), and acceptability as assessed with surveys and interviews. Secondary outcomes were reach, maintenance, CKD knowledge, digital health literacy, self-management, self-efficacy, quality of life, step counts, and BP values. Interviews were conducted at study end.
Results
Of the 47 randomized participants, 44 (94%) completed the text phase and 43 (92%) completed the app phase. The median age was 63 years, 49% were female, and 45% were Black. Retention was 91%. BP adherence was 87% in the text phase and 74% in the app phase, and step count adherence was 97%. Acceptability scores were high, and interviews largely conveyed acceptance. CKD knowledge increased but remaining survey scores did not change. Mean step counts increased from the prestudy period similarly in both phases. BP did not change over time.
Conclusions
Implementing a smartphone support tool for self-management was feasible among people with CKD and hypertension. The approach can supplement clinic-based care and potentially lead to less cardiovascular disease and CKD progression.

Chang A, Kim J. Influence of self-management, self-efficacy, depression and social support on quality of life in patients undergoing haemodialysis by disease stage in South Korea. J Clin Nurs 2024. [PMID: 38853351 DOI: 10.1111/jocn.17316] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/24/2023] [Revised: 05/01/2024] [Accepted: 05/13/2024] [Indexed: 06/11/2024]
Abstract
AIM To investigate the influence of self-management, self-efficacy, depression and social support by disease stage on quality of life in patients undergoing haemodialysis in South Korea. DESIGN A cross-sectional survey design was used. Participants completed self-report questionnaires. METHODS A convenience sample of 409 patients undergoing haemodialysis were recruited to complete self-report questionnaires. T-tests, ANOVA, multiple comparisons with Dunnett's T3 post hoc test, Pearson's correlation coefficients and hierarchical linear multiple regression were conducted using IBM SPSS version 25.0. RESULTS The crisis stage group had the highest mean quality of life score (M = 83.92). Factors influencing quality of life were social support and depression in the crisis stage and depression, self-efficacy and self-management in the stable stage, explaining 38.5% and 51.5% of the total variation each. In the downward stage, only depression was a significant predictor of quality of life, explaining 55.9% of it. CONCLUSION Long-term intervention to decrease depression regardless of disease stage to improve quality of life in haemodialysis patients is required. Nursing interventions should include increasing social support to promote patients' quality of life in the crisis stage and improving self-efficacy and self-management in the stable stage. IMPLICATIONS FOR THE PROFESSION AND/OR PATIENT CARE Based on quality of life predictors, the development and implementation of patient-centered nursing interventions considering the patient's disease stage can improve haemodialysis patients' quality of life. IMPACT There is minimal research on patients' quality of life considering disease stage. Depression was a significant factor of haemodialysis patients' quality of life in all stages, while social support was significant in the crisis stage and self-efficacy and self-management was significant in the stable stage. REPORTING METHOD This study was reported according to the STROBE checklist. PATIENT OR PUBLIC CONTRIBUTION Validated interviewer-administered questionnaires were completed by patients undergoing haemodialysis in this study.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE People living with diabetes mellitus (DM) and chronic kidney disease can have difficulty attending multiple appointments to receive DM care. We developed and studied the utility of a DM outreach program to offer in the hemodialysis (HD) unit. METHODS We conducted a quality improvement project in a satellite HD unit in London, Ontario, Canada, between August 1, 2019, and July 31, 2022. We assessed for baseline gaps in DM care among those with DM, performed root-cause analysis with key stakeholders to identify critical drivers of gaps, and conceptualized a certified diabetes educator-led outreach program to offer in the HD unit. We aimed to improve DM self-monitoring, hypo- and hyperglycemia, and DM-related screening. We used run and control charts to track outcome measures over time and modified our outreach program iteratively. RESULTS Fifty-eight persons with DM receiving HD participated in our program. Support spanned multiple waves of the COVID-19 pandemic. With 4 tests of change, we observed improvement in DM self-monitoring with a modest decline in self-reported hyperglycemia. There were no adverse consequences, and satisfaction with our program was high. CONCLUSIONS Although we did not meet all measures of success during the pandemic, outreach DM support in the HD unit appeared to improve self-monitoring and self-reported hyperglycemia. Similar programs could be modified and implemented in other centres.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To identify the essential attributes of biopsychosocial rehabilitation for chronic low back pain in the working population. DESIGN A concept analysis was conducted according to the 8-step method of Walker and Avant. This framework provides a clear concept and theoretical and operational definitions. METHODS Five databases were searched, followed by a systematic screening. Subsequently, attributes, illustrative cases, antecedents, consequences and empirical referents were formulated. RESULTS Of the 3793 studies identified, 42 unique references were included. Eleven attributes were identified: therapeutic exercise, psychological support, education, personalization, self-management, participation, follow-up, practice standard, goal-setting, social support, and dietary advice. Subsequently, illustrative cases were described. Antecedents, such as motivation, preparedness and a multidisciplinary team, were found, together with consequences such as decreased pain, less sick-leave and increased function and work status. Finally, examples of empirical referents were given. CONCLUSION This study identified the attributes that are necessary to develop biopsychosocial rehabilitation intervention programmes for chronic low back pain. The defined concept of biopsychosocial rehabilitation for chronic low back pain may serve as a solid base to further develop and apply interventions. Future research should focus on the objectification of biopsychosocial rehabilitation and conceptualization regarding how personalization is done.

Abstract
Patients with kidney failure need lifelong renal replacement therapy to survive and, worldwide, in-centre haemodialysis is the most common modality. The efficacy of this treatment largely depends on the patients' adherence to several health behaviours. According to Leventhal's self-regulation model, patients' illness perceptions can be a key factor for treatment adherence. Therefore, it is of utmost importance to better understand this relationship to further fine-tune the effectiveness of renal rehabilitation programs. This study aimed to systematically review the literature on the association between illness perceptions and treatment adherence in adults undergoing in-centre haemodialysis. The search was performed on PubMed, Scopus, CINAHL, Web of Science (all databases included), and ProQuest (all databases included), from the 17th to the 21st of December 2020. The last update was performed on the 9th of June of 2022. Articles were critically appraised using the Joanna Briggs Institute (JBI) Critical Appraisal Checklists for Analytical Cross-Sectional Studies. Nine studies were included comprising a total of 1161 patients undergoing in-centre haemodialysis. Associations between illness perceptions and treatment adherence were found in six studies. Adherence to dietary restrictions was the type of adherence with more significant associations with illness perceptions, followed by fluid control and medication intake. Two studies combining several types of adherences into an overall score also showed significant associations with illness perceptions. No significant associations were found between illness perceptions and adherence to dialysis sessions. These findings suggest that illness perceptions in patients undergoing in-centre haemodialysis should continue to receive research attention. Future interventions should acknowledge the importance of modifying maladaptive illness perceptions to improve treatment adherence in kidney failure. The protocol for this systematic review was registered on PROSPERO (CRD42021231929).

Abstract
Chronic kidney disease (CKD) negatively impacts psychological well-being and quality of life (QoL). Underpinned by the Common Sense Model (CSM), this study evaluated the potential mediating role of self-efficacy, coping styles and psychological distress on the relationship between illness perceptions and QoL in patients living with CKD. Participants were 147 people with stage 3-5 kidney disease. Measures included eGFR, illness perceptions, coping styles, psychological distress, self-efficacy and QoL. Correlational analyses were performed, followed by regression modelling. Poorer QoL was associated with greater distress, engagement in maladaptive coping, poorer illness perceptions and lower self-efficacy. Regression analysis revealed that illness perceptions predicted QoL, with psychological distress acting as a mediator. The proportion of variance explained was 63.8%. These findings suggest that psychological interventions are likely to enhance QoL in CKD, if they target the mediating psychological processes associated with illness perceptions and psychological distress.

Abstract
Self-management education programs have been highly successful in preparing people to manage medical conditions with recurring events. A detailed curriculum for epilepsy patients, and their caretakers, is lacking. Here we assess what is available for patients who have disorders with recurring events and offer an approach to developing a potential self-care curriculum for patients with seizures and their caregivers. Among the anticipated components are a baseline efficacy assessment and training tailored to increasing self-efficacy, medication compliance, and stress management. Those at risk of status epilepticus will also need guidance in preparing a personalized seizure action plan and training in how to decide when rescue medication is appropriate and how to administer the therapy. Peers, as well as professionals, could teach and provide support. To our knowledge, no such programs are currently available in English. We encourage their creation, dissemination, and widespread use.

Abstract
Given the high prevalence of chronic conditions and multimorbidity in older adults, there is a need to better conceptualize and measure self-care and self-management to promote a person-centered approach. This scoping review aimed to identify and map instruments measuring self-care and self-management of chronic conditions by older adults. We searched six electronic databases, charted data from the studies and tools and reported the results in accordance with the PRISMA-ScR guidelines. A total of 107 articles (103 studies) containing 40 tools were included in the review. There was substantial variation in the tools in terms of their aims and scope, structure, theoretical foundations, how they were developed, and the settings in which they have been used. The quantity of tools demonstrates the importance of assessing self-care and self-management. Consideration of the purpose, scope, and theoretical foundation should guide decisions about tools suitable for use in research and clinical practice.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES This study assesses effective coverage of diabetes and hypertension in Thailand during 2016-2019. DESIGN Mixed method, analysis of National health insurance database 2016-2019 and in-depth interviews. SETTING Beneficiaries of Universal Coverage Scheme residing outside Bangkok. PARTICIPANTS Quantitative analysis was performed by acquiring individual patient data of diabetes and hypertension cases in the Universal Coverage Scheme residing outside bangkok in 2016-2019. Qualitative analysis was conducted by in-depth interview of 85 multi-stakeholder key informants to identify challenges. OUTCOMES Estimate three indicators: detected need (diagnosed/total estimated cases), crude coverage (received health services/total estimated cases) and effective coverage (controlled/total estimated cases) were compared. Controlled diabetes was defined as haemoglobin A1C (HbA1C) below 7% and controlled hypertension as blood pressure below 140/90 mm Hg. RESULTS Estimated cases were 3.1-3.2 million for diabetes and 8.7-9.2 million for hypertension. For diabetes, all indicators have shown slow improvement between 2016 and 2019 (67.4%, 69.9%, 71.9% and 74.7% for detected need; 38.7%, 43.1%, 45.1% and 49.8% for crude coverage and 8.1%, 10.5%, 11.8% and 11.7% for effective coverage). For hypertension, the performance was poorer for detection (48.9%, 50.3%, 51.8% and 53.3%) and crude coverage (22.3%, 24.7%, 26.5% and 29.2%) but was better for effective coverage (11.3%, 13.2%, 15.1% and 15.7%) than diabetes. Results were better for the women and older age groups in both diseases. Complex interplays between supply and demand side were a key challenge. Database challenges also hamper regular assessment of effective coverage. Sensitivity analysis when using at least three annual visits shows slight improvement of effective coverage. CONCLUSION Effective coverage was low for both diseases, though improving in 2016-2019, especially among men and ัyounger populations. The increasing rate of effective coverage was significantly smaller than crude coverage. Health information systems limitation is a major barrier to comprehensive measurement. To maximise effective coverage, long-term actions should address primary prevention of non-communicable disease risk factors, while short-term actions focus on improving Chronic Care Model.

Cultural adaptation and validation of the Malay Chronic Kidney Disease Self-management instrument (MCKD-SM). BMC Nephrol 2022; 23:384. [PMID: 36457069 PMCID: PMC9716702 DOI: 10.1186/s12882-022-03016-x] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/15/2021] [Accepted: 11/24/2022] [Indexed: 12/03/2022] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND There is growing evidence that self-management behaviour can improve outcomes for patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD). However, no measures are available in Malay to effectively assess the self-management of CKD. The aim of this study was to translate, culturally adapt and validate the Malay Chronic Kidney Disease Self-Management (MCKD-SM) instrument for Malay-speaking health professionals and patients. METHODS This study was carried out in two phases: the translation and cultural adaptation phase and the validation phase. The instrument was translated from English to Malay and then adapted and validated in a sample of 337 patients with CKD stages 3-4 attending a nephrology clinic in a tertiary hospital in Malaysia. Structural validity was evaluated by exploratory factor analysis. The instrument's reliability was assessed by internal consistency and test-retest reliability. The correlations between the MCKD-SM and kidney disease knowledge and the MCKD-SM and self-efficacy were hypothesised a priori and investigated. RESULTS The MCKD-SM instrument has 29 items grouped into three factors: 'Understanding and Managing My CKD', 'Seeking Support' and 'Adherence to Recommended Regimen'. The three factors accounted for 56.3% of the total variance. Each factor showed acceptable internal reliability, with Cronbach's α from 0.885 to 0.960. The two-week intra-rater test-retest reliability intraclass correlation coefficient values for all items ranged between 0.938 and 1.000. The MCKD-SM scores significantly correlated with kidney disease knowledge (r = 0.366, p < 0.01) and self-efficacy (r = 0.212, p < 0.01). CONCLUSION The MCKD-SM was found to be a valid and reliable patient-reported outcome measure of pre-dialysis CKD self-management behaviour in the Malay-speaking population.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Health care self-management is important for people living with nondialysis chronic kidney disease (CKD). However, the few available resources are of variable quality. OBJECTIVE This work describes the systematic codevelopment of "My Kidneys & Me" (MK&M), a theory-driven and evidence-based digital self-management resource for people with nondialysis CKD, guided by an established process used for the successful development of the diabetes education program MyDESMOND (Diabetes Education and Self-Management for Ongoing and Newly Diagnosed, DESMOND). METHODS A multidisciplinary steering group comprising kidney health care professionals and researchers and specialists in the development of complex interventions and digital health provided expertise in the clinical and psychosocial aspects of CKD, self-management, digital health, and behavior change. A patient and public involvement group helped identify the needs and priorities of MK&M and co-design the resource. MK&M was developed in 2 sequential phases. Phase 1 involved the codevelopment process of the MK&M resource (content and materials), using Intervention Mapping (IM) as a framework. The first 4 IM steps guided the development process: needs assessment was conducted to describe the context of the intervention; intervention outcomes, performance objectives, and behavioral determinants were identified; theory- and evidence-based change methods and practical strategies to deliver change methods were selected; and program components were developed and refined. Phase 2 involved the adoption and adaptation of the existing MyDESMOND digital platform to suit the MK&M resource. RESULTS The needs assessment identified that individuals with CKD have multiple differing needs and that delivering a self-management program digitally would enable accessible, tailored, and interactive information and support. The intended outcomes of MK&M were to improve and maintain effective self-management behaviors, including physical activity and lifestyle, improve knowledge, promote self-care skills, increase self-efficacy, and enhance well-being. This was achieved through the provision of content and materials designed to increase CKD knowledge and patient activation, reduce health risks, manage symptoms, and improve physical function. Theories and behavior change techniques selected include Self-Management Framework, Capability, Opportunity, Motivation Behavior model components of Behaviour Change Wheel and taxonomy of behavior change techniques, Health Action Process Approach Model, Common Sense Model, and Social Cognitive Theory. The program components developed comprised educational and behavior change sessions, health trackers (eg, monitoring blood pressure, symptoms, and exercise), goal-setting features, and forums for social support. The MyDESMOND digital platform represented an ideal existing platform to host MK&M; thus, the MyDESMOND interface and features were adopted and adapted for MK&M. CONCLUSIONS Applying the IM framework enabled the systematic application of theory, empirical evidence, and practical perspectives in the codevelopment of MK&M content and materials. Adopting and adapting a preexisting platform provided a cost- and time-efficient approach for developing our digital intervention. In the next stage of work, the efficacy of MK&M in increasing patient activation will be tested in a randomized controlled trial.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
Patient activation in chronic kidney disease (CKD) is increasingly being prioritized and considered a quality metric in CKD. Given the importance of patients’ activation in improving the quality of chronic disease care, this study aimed to assess patients’ activation levels and its relationship with self-efficacy among patients undergoing hemodialysis.
Methods
In this cross-sectional study, a total of 180 patients undergoing maintenance hemodialysis were selected by random sampling from the largest hemodialysis center (dialysis center of Emam Reza hospital, Tabriz) in Iran. Data were collected by demographics, patient activation measure, and chronic kidney disease self-efficacy (CKD-SE) scale from March to May 2021. Collected data were analyzed using SPSS software (ver. 26) using ANOVA, t-test, Pearson correlation coefficient, and multiple regression tests.
Results
The majority of the participants (35%) were at level 1 of activation and only 28.9% of the individuals were at level 4. According to the results, the mean score of self-efficacy in patients undergoing hemodialysis (in a possible range of 0–10) was 5.50 ± 1.45. Multiple regression analysis showed that factors including self-efficacy, educational level, and marital status were significant predictors of change in patient activation (R2 = 0.85, adjusted R2 = 0.66, p < 0.001). The results showed that self-efficacy was the main predictor of patient activation (β = 0.49, p < 0.001).
Conclusion
According to the result, improving the patients' self-efficacy could improve the patient's activation. Moreover, patients with lower educational level reported the lower activation score; therefore, health care providers should improve the knowledge of patients with lower educational level, encourage them to be more active in their health care, and help them in providing more tailored strategies to improve the quality of care more efficiently. Furthermore, Measuring patients' activation level at admission to the dialysis unit is recommended for all patients undergoing hemodialysis.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Self-management is important in reducing coronary risk factors and in preventing recurrent cardiac events. An enabling factor that promotes self-management among patients with coronary heart disease (CHD) is self-efficacy. However, there is no standardized measure that captures self-efficacy and self-management concurrently in this population. AIM The authors of this study report on the development and validation of a brief scale to measure self-efficacy and self-management in patients with CHD. METHODS Scale development and testing comprised (1) item generation, (2) content validity, and (3) pilot testing. The Heart Health Self-Efficacy and Self-Management (HH-SESM) scale includes 2 constructs: self-efficacy and self-management, measured concurrently. Components of the HH-SESM scale consisted of items related to behavioral and coronary risk factor modification. Survey data from 143 participants were used in exploratory factor analyses to test the factorial validity and internal consistency of the scale. RESULTS Twelve items with the same response format were included in the exploratory factor analysis. The factor analysis revealed a single-factor solution accounting for 36.7% and 36.5% of the variance in scores of the self-efficacy and self-management scales, respectively. The correlation ( r = 0.72, P < .001) between the self-efficacy and self-management constructs indicates moderate convergent validity. Cronbach α of self-efficacy (0.83) and self-management (0.81) constructs showed good internal consistency. CONCLUSION The HH-SESM is a brief, easy-to-administer, and reliable measure of self-efficacy and self-management in patients with CHD.

Abstract
BACKGROUND There is limited research of electronic tools for self-management for patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD). We sought to evaluate participant engagement, perceived self-efficacy and website usage in a preliminary evaluation of My Kidneys My Health, a patient-facing eHealth tool in Canada. METHODS We conducted an explanatory sequential mixed-methods study of adults with CKD who were not on kidney replacement therapy and who had access to My Kidneys My Health for 8 weeks. Outcomes included acceptance (measured by the Technology Acceptance Model), self-efficacy (measured by the Chronic Disease Self-Efficacy Scale [CDSES]) and website usage patterns (captured using Google Analytics). We analyzed participant interviews using qualitative content analysis. RESULTS Twenty-nine participants with CKD completed baseline questionnaires, of whom 22 completed end-of-study questionnaires; data saturation was achieved with 15 telephone interviews. Acceptance was high, with more than 70% of participants agreeing or strongly agreeing that the website was easy to use and useful. Of the 22 who completed end-of-study questionnaires, 18 (82%) indicated they would recommend its use to others and 16 (73%) stated they would use the website in the future. Average scores for website satisfaction and look and feel were 7.7 (standard deviation [SD] 2.0) and 8.2 (SD 2.0) out of 10, respectively. The CDSES indicated that participants gained an increase in CKD information. Interviewed participants reported that the website offered valuable information and interactive tools for patients with early or newly diagnosed CKD, or for those experiencing changes in health status. Popular website pages and interactive features included Food and Diet, What is CKD, My Question List and the Depression Screener. INTERPRETATION Participants indicated that the My Kidneys My Health website provided accessible content and tools that may improve self-efficacy and support in CKD self-management. Further evaluation of the website's effectiveness in supporting self-management among a larger, more heterogenous population is warranted.

Abstract
PURPOSE Cancer clinical trial (CCT) participants are at risk for experiencing adverse associations from financial toxicity, but these remain understudied. METHODS From July 2015 to July 2017, we prospectively enrolled CCT participants referred for financial assistance and a group of patients matched by age, sex, cancer type, trial, and trial phase. We assessed financial burden of cancer care, cost concerns about CCTs, physical (Edmonton Symptom Assessment Scale [ESAS]) and psychologic (Patient Health Questionnaire-4 [PHQ-4]) symptoms, illness perceptions (Brief Illness Perception Questionnaire), and communication confidence (Perceived Efficacy in Patient-Physician Interactions). Adjusting for age, sex, race, performance status, marital status, income, insurance, and disease status, we examined associations of financial burden and cost concerns with patients' symptoms, illness perceptions, and communication confidence. RESULTS Of 198 patients, 112 (56.6%) reported financial burden and 82 (41.4%) reported cost concerns. Higher ESAS-total (odds ratio [OR] = 1.03; 95% CI, 1.01 to 1.06; P = .001), PHQ-4 depression (OR = 1.58; 95% CI, 1.20 to 2.08; P < .001), PHQ-4 anxiety (OR = 1.26; 95% CI, 1.02 to 1.55; P = .025), and more negative illness perceptions (OR = 1.04; 95% CI, 1.00 to 1.07; P = .029) were associated with financial burden, but not communication confidence (OR = 0.98; 95% CI, 0.02 to 1.05; P = .587). Higher ESAS-total (OR = 1.03; 95% CI, 1.01 to 1.05; P = .004), PHQ-4 depression (OR = 1.36; 95% CI, 1.08 to 1.71; P = .03), PHQ-4 anxiety (OR = 1.26; 95% CI, 1.03 to 1.53; P = .018), more negative illness perceptions (OR = 1.06; 95% CI, 1.02 to 1.10; P = .001), and decreased communication confidence (OR = 0.93; 95% CI, 0.86 to 1.00; P = .029) were associated with cost concerns. CONCLUSION In this study of CCT participants, greater symptom burden, more negative illness perceptions, and lower communication confidence were associated with financial toxicity, underscoring the importance of addressing these issues when seeking to alleviate adverse associations of financial toxicity.

Int J Behav Nutr Phys Act 2022; 19:49. [PMID: 35477419 PMCID: PMC9043878 DOI: 10.1186/s12966-022-01288-y] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/20/2021] [Accepted: 03/22/2022] [Indexed: 11/10/2022] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Promoting active (i.e., conscious, autonomous, informed, and value-congruent) choices may improve the effectiveness of physical activity interventions. This web-based four-arm experimental study investigated the effect of promoting an active versus passive choice regarding physical activity on behavioural and psychological outcomes (e.g., physical activity intentions and behaviours, autonomy, commitment) among physically inactive adults. METHODS Dutch inactive adults were randomized into four groups: physical activity guideline only (control group G), guideline & information (GI), guideline & active choice (GA), or guideline & active choice & action planning (GA +). GA and GA + participants were stimulated to make an active choice by weighing advantages and disadvantages of physical activity, considering personal values, and identifying barriers. GA + participants additionally completed action/coping planning exercises. Passive choice groups G and GI did not receive exercises. Self-reported behavioural outcomes were assessed by a questionnaire pre-intervention (T0, n = 564) and at 2-4 weeks follow-up (T2, n = 493). Psychological outcomes were assessed post-intervention (T1, n = 564) and at follow-up. Regression analyses compared the outcomes of groups GI, GA and GA + with group G. We also conducted sensitivity analyses and a process evaluation. RESULTS Although promoting an active choice process (i.e., interventions GA and GA +) did not improve intention (T1) or physical activity (T2 versus T0), GA + participants reported higher commitment at T1 (β = 0.44;95%CI:0.04;0.84) and more frequently perceived an increase in physical activity between T0 and T2 (β = 2.61;95%CI:1.44;7.72). GA participants also made a more active choice at T1 (β = 0.16;95%CI:0.04;0.27). The GA and GA + intervention did not significantly increase the remaining outcomes. GI participants reported higher intention strength (β = 0.64;95%CI:0.15;1.12), autonomy (β = 0.50;95%CI:0.05;0.95), and commitment (β = 0.39;95%CI:0.04;0.74), and made a more active choice at T1 (β = 0.13;95%CI:0.02;0.24). Interestingly, gender and health condition modified the effect on several outcomes. The GA + intervention was somewhat more effective in women. The process evaluation showed that participants varied in how they perceived the intervention. CONCLUSIONS There is no convincing evidence of a beneficial effect of an active versus passive choice intervention on physical activity intentions and behaviours among inactive adults. Further research should determine whether and how active choice interventions that are gender-sensitized and consider health conditions can effectively increase physical activity.

Can J Kidney Health Dis 2022; 9:20543581221086685. [PMID: 35356537 PMCID: PMC8958521 DOI: 10.1177/20543581221086685] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/01/2021] [Accepted: 01/29/2022] [Indexed: 11/25/2022] Open
Abstract
Background: There is a gap in research investigating the potential impact of ethnicity on health literacy, self-efficacy, and self-management in patients treated with maintenance hemodialysis (MHD). Objective: To explore (1) the associations between health literacy, self-efficacy, and self-management among outpatients with kidney failure receiving treatment with MHD, and (2) the differences in health literacy and self-efficacy based on characteristics of ethnicity (ie, physical resemblance and proficiency in the language of the host population), known to be associated with health care access and health outcomes. Design: Cross-sectional Setting: Outpatients receiving MHD at 7 adult hemodialysis centers in Calgary, Alberta from September 2014 to December 2014. Patients: Participants were grouped into 2 groups based on a proposed 4-quadrant framework of a multicultural society. Quadrant 1 comprised outpatients with physical resemblance and first language of the host population (ie, white and English as a first language), whereas quadrant 4 participants comprised outpatients with physical resemblance and first language not of the host population (ie, non-white and first language other than English). A total of 78 patients (nQ1 = 44, nQ4 = 34) were included. Measurements: Heath literacy, self-efficacy, and self-management were measured using the Health Literacy Questionnaire (HLQ), Strategies Used by People to Promote Health (SUPPH), and Patient Activation Measure-13 (PAM-13), respectively. Methods: Convenience sampling was used to recruit participants at each of the 7 adult hemodialysis centers. All participants completed a study package, which included a demographic questionnaire, HLQ, SUPPH, and PAM-13. Spearman rho was calculated to identify correlations between patient activation level and HLQ and SUPPH scores. Independent t tests were performed to identify differences in HLQ and SUPPH scores between Q1 and Q4 participants. Stepwise regression was performed in other analyses to identify predictor variables of patient activation level. Results: Statistically significant correlations were identified between patient activation level and the health literacy domains of “ability to actively engage with health care providers” (rHLQ6= .535, P < .001), “ability to find good health information” (rHLQ8 = .611, P < .001), and “understanding health information well enough to know what to do” (rHLQ9 = .712, P < .001). There was a statistically significant difference between Q1 and Q4 participants in the health literacy domain of “ability to find good health information” (P = .048). “Understanding health information well enough to know what to do” and “actively managing health” were included in the final stepwise regression model, F(2, 72) = 32.232, P < .001. Limitations: The cross-sectional design limits the generalizability of the results. The small sample size limits the power to identify significant associations and differences. Although English was not the first language of Q4 participants, all were proficient in English, meaning potential differences of a key subgroup of Q4 (ie, those who did not speak any English) were not captured. Conclusion: The HLQ allowed for the creation of a health literacy profile of patients with end-stage kidney disease receiving treatment with MHD. The findings suggest possible associations between specific domains of health literacy and patient activation. Outpatients’ representative of Q4 receiving treatment with MHD appear to struggle more with finding good health information, which may leave them at a disadvantage in the early phases of their self-management efforts. The findings highlight potential opportunities to better tailor patient care to support patients in their self-management, particularly for patients from ethnic minority backgrounds.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To evaluate the efficacy of a novel intervention aimed at enhancing self-advocacy in individuals living with traumatic brain injury (TBI). SETTING Community. PARTICIPANTS Sixty-seven (35 allocated to treatment, 32 to control) community-dwelling adults 9 months or more post-TBI (mean of 8.9 years postinjury); previously discharged from inpatient or outpatient TBI rehabilitation; able to travel independently in the community, indicating a level of independence needed to engage in self-advocacy. DESIGN Longitudinal randomized 2-arm controlled trial (NCT no. 03385824). Computer-generated block randomization allocated participants to treatment/intervention or control/no-intervention. All outcome assessments completed by blinded study staff. INTERVENTION A manualized group intervention, Self-Advocacy for Independent Life (SAIL), addressing the self-efficacy beliefs, knowledge, and skills for self-advocacy following TBI. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES The Self-Advocacy Scale (SAS) (primary); General Self-Efficacy Scale (GSE); Personal Advocacy Activity Scale (PAAS); Satisfaction With Life Scale (SWLS). RESULTS The treatment group showed significantly greater improvement than controls from baseline to posttreatment on the primary measure (SAS) of self-efficacy specific to self-advocacy after TBI (effect size = 0.22). Similar improvements were found on secondary measures of general self-efficacy and satisfaction with life from baseline to posttreatment. However, significant between-groups gains for primary and secondary measures were not maintained over 6- and 12-week follow-up. CONCLUSIONS Individuals living with chronic TBI sequelae can increase self-efficacy specific to self-advocacy, general self-efficacy, and satisfaction with life, through a TBI-specific intervention aimed at empowering individuals to advocate for their own needs and wishes. Sustaining gains over time may require ongoing community collaboration and support. This could involve community-based systems of self-advocacy education, resources, and peer support.

Abstract
Chronic disease self-management is the establishment and maintenance of behaviors needed to be an active participant in one's health care and experience the best health outcomes. Kidney disease self-management behaviors to slow disease progression include engaging in exercise or physical activity; adhering to a diet low in sodium, potassium, and phosphorus; monitoring laboratory parameters; managing complex medication regimens; coping with disease-related emotional distress; and communicating effectively with providers. Durable behavior change has been difficult to achieve in kidney disease, in part because of an incomplete understanding of the multilevel factors determining chronic disease self-management in this patient group. The biopsychosocial model of chronic illness care posits that an individual's health outcomes result from biological, psychological, social, and environmental factors as part of a multilevel systems hierarchy. Although this theoretical model has been used to comprehensively identify factors driving self-management in other chronic conditions, it has been applied infrequently to behavioral interventions in kidney disease. In this scoping review, we apply the biopsychosocial model of health to identify individual, interpersonal, and systems-level drivers of kidney disease self-management behaviors. We further highlight factors that may serve as novel, impactful targets of theory-based behavioral interventions to understand and sustain behavior change in kidney disease.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Increasing demands on Canada's healthcare system require patients to take on more active roles in their health. Effective self-management has been linked to improved health outcomes; and there is evidence that effective behaviors, and subsequent healthcare utilization, are linked to self-efficacy and health literacy; however, this link has had minimal testing in the cancer context. Our aim is to examine the association between self-efficacy, health literacy, chemotherapy self-management behaviors, and health service utilization. DESIGN AND METHODS A cross-sectional survey that included validated measures of self-efficacy, health literacy, chemotherapy self-management, and health service utilization was completed by participants (N = 213). Multivariable modeling using hierarchical linear regression was used to examine the association between variables. RESULTS Self-efficacy contributed significantly to explaining variation in chemotherapy self-management score. Health literacy was not significantly associated with any of the dependent variables. CONCLUSION Participants with higher self-efficacy had higher chemotherapy self-management scores compared to participants with low self-efficacy. Contrary to evidence in the chronic disease self-management literature, this study demonstrated that health literacy was not associated with chemotherapy self-management behavior nor was it associated with self-efficacy. Building patient self-efficacy in the context of chemotherapy self-management could be particularly helpful both in the cancer center and in the domain of oral chemotherapy management at home where patients are required to take on significant responsibility for self-management.

Abstract
AIM AND OBJECTIVES The study aimed to investigate whether the patients' education level affected the mediation effect of self-efficacy on the relationship between the autonomy-supportive healthcare climate and health behaviour among patients with cardiovascular risk factors. BACKGROUND Autonomy and self-efficacy are identified as influential factors related to the behaviours of individuals with health problems. However, it is unclear whether autonomy support from healthcare providers affects health behaviour through self-efficacy and if patients' education level affects the association. DESIGN A cross-sectional study. METHODS A convenience sample of 207 individuals with one or more cardiovascular diseases completed self-administered surveys including the healthcare climate questionnaire, self-efficacy scale and the engagement in health behaviour scale. Data were analysed using descriptive statistics, t test, Pearson's correlation coefficients and hierarchical regression analysis. All procedures of the study adhered to the STROBE guidelines. RESULTS The influence of autonomy support from healthcare providers on self-efficacy differed by individuals' education level. Self-efficacy in less educated, but not highly educated individuals, tended to depend on the autonomy-supportive climate. Additionally, the autonomy-supportive healthcare climate affected health behaviour through self-efficacy only in less educated individuals. CONCLUSION The relationship between autonomy support from healthcare providers and self-efficacy was more evident in the relatively less educated individuals. The associations among autonomy support, self-efficacy and health behaviour differed by patient education level, and the mediating role of self-efficacy on the relationship between autonomy-supportive climate and health behaviour was found only in those less educated. RELEVANCE TO CLINICAL PRACTICE Healthcare providers should recognise the importance of supporting patients' need for autonomy to improve self-efficacy and healthy behaviour, particularly in less educated patients. Additionally, healthcare providers' support tailored to patients' needs and educational status should be highlighted.

Abstract
(1) Background: Perceived disease-related self-efficacy is considered a fundamental component of the successful self-management of chronic diseases. Prior studies have found that self-efficacy is associated with improvements in health behaviors and health status among people with chronic kidney disease (CKD). However, few studies have evaluated self-efficacy among patients undergoing dialysis. (2) Methods: This study was performed to evaluate CKD patients’ self-efficacy and to determine the factors that significantly affect self-efficacy among dialysis patients. This was a cross-sectional study using a convenience sample of 190 patients undergoing dialysis. The patients’ self-efficacy was measured using the CKD Self-Efficacy Scale. Inferential statistics were used to analyze the data. (3) Results: The mean age of the participants was 49.24 ± 13.15 years. Almost half of them were males (48.4%), and 75.3% were married. The majority of the patients (83%) were undergoing hemodialysis. The total score for self-efficacy was 192.57 ± 39.23. Only occupational status and the type of dialysis were significantly and positively correlated with patients’ perceived self-efficacy scores. (4) Conclusions: This study provides primary evidence of the perceived self-efficacy among CKD patients who are on dialysis. The results of this cross-sectional study showed that greater self-efficacy was associated with employment and peritoneal dialysis. Strategies to enhance self-efficacy among dialysis patients, especially those on hemodialysis, are needed.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To support the adaptation and translation of an evidence-based chronic kidney disease (CKD) self-management intervention to the Chinese context, we examined the beliefs, perceptions and needs of Chinese patients with CKD and healthcare professionals (HCPs) towards CKD self-management. DESIGN A basic interpretive, cross-sectional qualitative study comprising semistructured interviews and observations. SETTING One major tertiary referral hospital in Henan province, China. PARTICIPANTS 11 adults with a diagnosis of CKD with CKD stages G1-G5 and 10 HCPs who worked in the Department of Nephrology. RESULTS Four themes emerged: (1) CKD illness perceptions, (2) understanding of and motivation towards CKD self-management, (3) current CKD practice and (4) barriers, (anticipated) facilitators and needs towards CKD self-management. Most patients and HCPs solely mentioned medical management of CKD, and self-management was largely unknown or misinterpreted as adherence to medical treatment. Also, the majority of patients only mentioned performing disease-specific acts of control and not, for instance, behaviour for coping with emotional problems. A paternalistic patient-HCP relationship was often present. Finally, the barriers, facilitators and needs towards CKD self-management were frequently related to knowledge and environmental context and resources. CONCLUSIONS The limited understanding of CKD self-management, as observed, underlines the need for educational efforts on the use and benefits of self-management before intervention implementation. Also, specific characteristics and needs within the Chinese context need to guide the development or tailoring of CKD self-management interventions. Emphasis should be placed on role management and emotional coping skills, while self-management components should be tailored by addressing the existing paternalistic patient-HCP relationship. The use of electronic health innovations can be an essential facilitator for implementation.

Healthcare (Basel) 2021; 9:266. [PMID: 33801477 PMCID: PMC8000963 DOI: 10.3390/healthcare9030266] [Citation(s) in RCA: 11] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/07/2021] [Revised: 01/26/2021] [Accepted: 02/24/2021] [Indexed: 01/29/2023] Open
Abstract
AIM Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is an emerging major public health issue that leads to end-stage kidney disease (ESRD). Factors influencing the self-management and self-efficacy of ESRD patients are still under investigation. The objective of this study is to evaluate the association of depression and anxiety with self-management and self-efficacy in patients with pre-ESRD. METHODS Patients in the department of nephrology of a regional hospital in Taiwan were invited to participate and were included in our study if they had a confirmed diagnosis of early-stage CKD, were more than 20 years old, and could converse in Mandarin Chinese or Taiwanese. Patients diagnosed with depression, who could not execute self-care, or who had cognitive deficits were excluded. In total, this cross-sectional study included 112 pre-ESRD patients. We used the Chinese versions of the hospital anxiety and depression scale (HADS), the chronic kidney disease self-efficacy instrument (CKD-SE), and the chronic kidney disease self-management instrument (CKD-SM) as the questionnaire. Spearman's rank correlation and logistic regressions were used to analyze the data. RESULTS The top quartile of self-management and self-efficacy scores (28 patients) was defined as high self-management and -efficacy, respectively, and the lower three quartiles as low self-management and -efficacy. The logistic regression analysis showed that having depression decreased the odds of having high self-management by 75.4% and high self-efficacy by 75.1%. Having an education level of senior high school or above increased the odds ratios for having high self-management and high self-efficacy to 4.47 and 3.56 (all p-values < 0.05). CONCLUSION Controlling depression as well as increasing the level of education can potentially increase self-management and self-efficacy in pre-ESRD patients.

The development and efficacy of a mobile phone application to improve medication adherence for persons with epilepsy in limited resource settings: A preliminary study. Epilepsy Behav 2021; 116:107794. [PMID: 33578224 DOI: 10.1016/j.yebeh.2021.107794] [Citation(s) in RCA: 7] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/14/2020] [Revised: 01/04/2021] [Accepted: 01/04/2021] [Indexed: 11/17/2022]
Abstract
OBJECTIVE Persons with epilepsy (PWE), especially those with limited education backgrounds from developing countries, are challenged by complicated medication regimens, debilitating seizures, and stigmatization in their daily life. Consequently, it is difficult for physicians to ensure medication adherence. This study validates a novel mobile application which was hypothesized to increase medication adherence and self-management skills in PWE. Created by medical professionals, the application included behavioral and educational components and was built to be easy-to-understand for those of socio-economically disadvantaged backgrounds. METHODS This was a parallel, two-armed randomized controlled trial in which a total of 96 participants were enrolled from a Neurology Outpatient Department into a control standard care group and a mobile application group that used the smartphone application (app) in addition to the standard medical treatment. The app was intuitive and easy to understand for those coming from a socio-economically disadvantaged background. Medication adherence and self-efficacy were assessed with the Morisky Green and Levine Scale (MGLS) and the Epilepsy Self Efficacy Scale (ESES). Patients were reassessed 12 weeks later. Change in seizure frequency following administration of the application was a secondary outcome. RESULTS In an intent-to-treat analysis, the mobile application interventional group showed over a 60% increase in the proportion of medication adherence (P < 0.0001). The mean self-efficacy score for the mobile application group was increased from 269.5 to 289.75 (P < 0.0001). The control group showed no statistically significant increases in either the proportion adherent or mean self-efficacy scores. SIGNIFICANCE This study demonstrated the statistically significant performance of a mobile application in improving medication adherence and self-management skills in Indian persons with epilepsy.

Medication non-adherence in chronic kidney disease: a mixed-methods review and synthesis using the theoretical domains framework and the behavioural change wheel. J Nephrol 2021; 34:1091-1125. [PMID: 33559850 DOI: 10.1007/s40620-020-00895-x] [Citation(s) in RCA: 16] [Impact Index Per Article: 5.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/20/2020] [Accepted: 10/28/2020] [Indexed: 10/22/2022]
Abstract
OBJECTIVE Medication non-adherence is a well-recognised issue in chronic diseases but data in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) not receiving kidney replacement therapy (KRT) remains limited. This review summarised the prevalence of medication non-adherence and assessed determinants and outcomes associated with it in adults with CKD, not on KRT. METHOD We searched PubMed, Embase, PsychInfo, Web of Science, and Cochrane (CENTRAL) for studies published until January 2020. Pooled prevalence of medication non-adherence was reported. Determinants of adherence-identified from quantitative and qualitative studies-were mapped into the theoretical domains framework and interventions proposed using the behavioural change wheel. RESULTS Twenty-seven studies (22 quantitative and 5 qualitative) were included. The pooled prevalence of medication non-adherence was 39% (95% CI 30-48%). Nine studies reported association between non-adherence and outcomes, including blood pressure, disease progression, adverse events, and mortality. Modifiable determinants of non-adherence were mapped into 11 of the 14 Theoretical Domains Framework-of which, six appeared most relevant. Non-adherence decisions were usually due to lack of knowledge on CKD, comorbidities, and medications; polypharmacy and occurrence of medication side effects; changes in established routines such as frequent medication changes; higher medication cost, poor accessibility to medications, services and facilities; inadequate patient-healthcare professional communication; and forgetfulness. Using the behavioural change wheel, we identified several areas where interventions can be directed to improve medication adherence. CONCLUSION Medication non-adherence is common in adults with CKD, not on KRT and may lead to poor outcomes. Evidence synthesis using mixed study designs was crucial in identifying determinants of non-adherence, drawing on a parsimonious approach from behaviour science. PROSPERO REGISTRATION CRD42020149983.

The interaction between self-care behavior and disease knowledge on the decline in renal function in chronic kidney disease. Sci Rep 2021; 11:401. [PMID: 33432037 PMCID: PMC7801646 DOI: 10.1038/s41598-020-79873-z] [Citation(s) in RCA: 11] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/05/2020] [Accepted: 11/26/2020] [Indexed: 11/09/2022] Open
Abstract
Multidisciplinary care can improve the outcomes of chronic kidney disease (CKD), however the contribution of self-care behavior and knowledge about CKD is unclear. This study enrolled 454 participants with CKD stages 1-5 not on dialysis. Structured questionnaires were used to evaluate self-care behavior and kidney disease knowledge. Rapid decline in renal function was defined as the decline in estimated filtration rate > 3 ml/min per 1.73 m2/year within 1-year prior to enrollment. The mean age of all study participants was 65.8 ± 12.1 years and 55.9% were male. The elderly had better self-care behavior while younger participants had better disease knowledge. Both high self-care and high disease knowledge scores were significantly associated with and had a synergistic effect on decreasing the risk of rapid decline in renal function. CKD patients with better self-care behavior and better kidney disease knowledge had lower risk of rapid decline in renal function.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Medication-related problems remain one of the largest health risks for older adults, yet there are few resources available to effectively reduce medication-related problems for community dwelling older adults. The aim of this pilot program was to determine the effectiveness of a multifaceted medication intervention on medication adherence and self-efficacy in medication use. DESIGN A single sample, pre-post-test design. SETTING This pilot study was conducted at Independence at Home, a Senior Care Action Network (SCAN) community service in Southern California. PARTICIPANTS One hundred and eighty community-dwelling, diverse older adults with potential medication-related problems and their caregivers. INTERVENTION The Community Medication Education, Data, & Safety (C-MEDS) Program identified community-dwelling older adults with potential medication-related problems and provided in-depth personalized medication safety, management and support, based on an in-home assessment and interventions delivered by trained geriatrics experts including pharmacists, nurses, a community health worker, and a pharmacy technician. MEASUREMENTS The primary outcomes included medication use self-efficacy, measured by the MUSE, and select medication adherence measures. Adherence was measured via pill count and via the MedAdhIR tool, a scale that measures risk for medication non-adherence. RESULTS Following participation in the C-MEDS program, community-dwelling older adult C-MEDS graduates (n = 105) had higher self-efficacy in managing medications (P < .001). Additionally, C-MEDS graduates also exhibited increased adherence to three types of medications (statins, diabetes-related, and certain hypertension drugs; P < .001). Moreover, risk of non-adherence declined significantly following C-MEDS graduation (P < .001). CONCLUSION C-MEDS holds promise as an effective intervention among community-dwelling older adults in improving medication self-efficacy, medication adherence among select medications, and reducing risk for non-adherence. Additional studies are needed to assess replicability and impact on clinical outcomes.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Recently published results of the investigational device exemption (IDE) trial using the Tablo hemodialysis system confirmed its safety and efficacy for home dialysis. This manuscript reports additional data from the Tablo IDE study on the training time required to be competent in self-care, the degree of dependence on health care workers and caregivers after training was complete, and participants' assessment of the ease-of-use of Tablo. METHODS We collected data on the time required to set up concentrates and the Tablo cartridge prior to treatment initiation. We asked participants to rate system setup, treatment, and takedown on a Likert scale from 1 (very difficult) to 5 (very simple) and if they had required any assistance with any aspect of treatment over the prior 7 days. In a subgroup of 15 participants, we recorded the number of training sessions required to be deemed competent to do self-care dialysis. FINDINGS Eighteen men and 10 women with a mean age of 52.6 years completed the study. Thirteen had previous self-care experience using a different dialysis system. Mean set up times for the concentrates and cartridge were 1.1 and 10.0 minutes, respectively. Participants with or without previous self-care experience had similar set-up times. The mean ease-of-use score was 4.5 or higher on a scale from 1 to 5 during the in-home phase. Sixty-five percent required no assistance at home and on average required fewer than four training sessions to be competent in managing their treatments. Results were similar for participants with or without previous self-care experience. CONCLUSIONS Participants in the Tablo IDE trial were able to quickly learn and manage hemodialysis treatments in the home, found Tablo easy to use, and were generally independent in performing hemodialysis.

Abstract
Objective: To determine the feasibility of implementing and evaluating a self-management mobile app for spinal cord injury (SCI) during inpatient rehabilitation and following community discharge. Design: Pilot feasibility study. Setting: Rehabilitation hospital and community. Participants: Inpatients from rehabilitation hospital following admission for their first SCI. Intervention: A mobile app was developed to facilitate self-management following SCI. The app consisted of 18 tools focusing on goal setting, tracking various health aspects, and identifying confidence regarding components of self-management. In-person training and follow-up sessions were conducted during inpatient rehabilitation and follow-up calls were provided after participants were discharged into the community. Main outcome measures: Participants completed outcome measures at baseline, community discharge, and 3-months post discharge. This study focused on feasibility indicators including recruitment, retention, respondent characteristics, adherence, and app usage. Additionally, participants' self-management confidence relating to SCI (e.g. medication, skin, bladder, pain) was evaluated over time. Results: Twenty participants (median age 39, IQR: 31 years, 85% male) enrolled in the study. Participants' Spinal Cord Injury Independence Measure (SCIM-III) median score was 23 and IQR was 33 (range: 7-84), which did not correlate with app usage. Retention from admission to discharge was 85% and 70% from discharge to 3-months post discharge. Individuals in the study who used the app entered data an average of 1.7x/day in rehabilitation (n = 17), and 0.5x/day in the community (n = 7). Participants' bowel self-management confidence improved between admission and discharge (P < 0.01). Conclusions: Feasibility indicators support a larger clinical trial during inpatient rehabilitation; however, there were challenges with retention and adherence following community discharge.

Abstract
AIM The aim of this study is to evaluate the validity and reliability of the modified Chronic Kidney Disease Self-Management instrument in an English-speaking population. BACKGROUND There is growing evidence that self-management behaviours can improve outcomes for people with chronic kidney disease. However, there are few suitable instruments available. DESIGN The study was cross sectional, with a test-retest protocol. METHOD Adults with chronic kidney disease attending a primary health care between June and December 2015 completed the Chronic Kidney Disease Self-Management instrument. Construct validity was determined using exploratory factor analysis, internal consistency and test-retest reliability using Cronbach's α and intraclass correlation. For convergent validity, the relationships between knowledge, self-efficacy and self-management were investigated. RESULTS The Australian version of the Chronic Kidney Disease Self-Management instrument has 17 items grouped into four factors: self-integration, seeking social support, adherence to lifestyle modification and problem solving. The instrument demonstrated good reliability. Self-efficacy was positively correlated with self-management scores, although there was no correlation between chronic kidney disease knowledge and self-management. CONCLUSIONS The Australian version of the Chronic Kidney Disease Self-Management instrument was found to be a valid and reliable patient-reported outcome measure. It can be used in clinical practice to support self-management, as well as future research.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Medication adherence plays an essential role in slowing the progression of chronic kidney disease (CKD). This review aims to summarise factors affecting medication adherence among these pre-dialysis CKD patients. METHODS A systematic review of the literature was performed in Medline®, Embase®, SCOPUS® and CINAHL®. Peer-reviewed, English language articles which evaluated factors associated with medication adherence among pre-dialysis CKD patients were included. Meta-analysis was performed to assess the pooled medication adherence rates across studies. Factors identified were categorised using the World Health Organization's five dimensions of medication adherence (condition, patient, therapy, health-system, and socio-economic domains). RESULTS Of the 3727 articles reviewed, 18 articles were included. The pooled adherence rate across studies was 67.4% (95% CI 61.4-73.3%). The most studied medication class was anti-hypertensives (55.6%). A total of 19 factors and 95 sub-factors related to medication adherence were identified. Among condition-related factors, advanced CKD was associated with poorer medication adherence. Patient-related factors that were associated with lower medication adherence included misconceptions about medication and lack of perceived self-efficacy in medication use. Therapy-related factors which were associated with poorer medication adherence included polypharmacy while health system-based factors included loss of confidence in the physician. Socioeconomic factors such as poor social support and lower education levels were associated with poorer medication adherence. CONCLUSION Factors associated with poor medication adherence among pre-dialysis CKD patients were highlighted in this review. This will aid clinicians in designing interventions to optimise medication adherence among pre-dialysis CKD patients.

Abstract
Background Promotion of self-management is one of the effective ways to improve the quality of life of patients under haemodialysis. Therefore, a better understanding of the factors that are effective on self-management might help nurses find an appropriate method for the promotion of self-management. Aims This study aimed to examine self-management and its correlation with self-efficacy and knowledge of haemodialysis among patients under haemodialysis in Yazd, Iran in 2016. Methods This is a cross-sectional study conducted in four haemodialysis centres. All patients who were referred to these centres were selected. Demographic characteristic forms, self-management questionnaires, haemodialysis knowledge questionnaires and chronic diseases self-efficacy scales were used to collect data. Results The score of self-management was between 32 and 80. The mean scores of self-management, knowledge and self-efficacy were 58.88 ± 10.41 (possible score 20-80), 16.15 ± 2.91 (possible score 0-25), 5.24 ± 1.99 (possible score 0-10), respectively. There was a significant positive correlation among self-management, knowledge and self-efficacy. Conclusions The level of self-management was moderate among patients under haemodialysis. Effective interventions including training related to dialysis system, laboratory tests and diet are needed to improve self-management among patients under haemodialysis.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Individuals with chronic kidney disease (CKD) generally have poor participation in self-care. We hypothesized that greater kidney disease knowledge and health literacy would associate with better self-care. METHODS We enrolled 401 participants with non-dialysis-dependent CKD from one academic center in this cross-sectional study. Validated surveys were used to assess health literacy level (inadequate vs. adequate; Rapid Estimate of Adult Literacy in Medicine), perceived kidney disease knowledge (Perceived Kidney Disease Knowledge Survey [PiKS]), objective kidney disease knowledge (Kidney Disease Knowledge Survey [KiKS]), and a CKD self-care measure was constructed as the sum of self-reported self-care behaviors using the adapted Summary of Diabetes Self-Care Activities Assessment. The association between health literacy level, PiKS scores, KiKS scores, and the CKD self-care measure was assessed with multivariable adjusted linear regression models. RESULTS Participants had a mean age of 57 years and 17.7% had inadequate health literacy. PiKS scores were positively associated with the CKD self-care measure (β = 1.05, 95% confidence interval [CI] 0.50-1.63), and a positive trend was observed for KiKS scores and the CKD self-care measure (β = 0.30, 95% CI: -0.12 to 0.72). Health literacy was not associated with CKD self-care measure. CONCLUSION Objective kidney disease knowledge is likely necessary, but not sufficient for self-care and may depend on the level of health literacy. Perceived kidney knowledge may offer a novel target to assess patients at risk for poor self-care, and be used in targeted educational interventions.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Home blood pressure monitoring helps patients with chronic kidney disease to improve blood pressure control and can predict cardiovascular events, renal function progress, and risk of death. Few instruments are available to assess patient adherence to home blood pressure monitoring. OBJECTIVE The aim of the study was to develop an instrument to evaluate home blood pressure monitoring adherence in patients with chronic kidney disease and test its reliability and validity. METHODS An item pool was formed for the Home Blood Pressure Monitoring Adherence Scale by literature review. Patients with chronic kidney disease (n = 436) were surveyed to assess item selection and examine item reliability and validity. Scale reliability was evaluated using internal, split-half, and test-retest reliability, while validity was assessed according to content, construct, and criterion validity. RESULTS The scale comprising eight items was formed from the item pool and item selection. Cronbach's α was 0.906, split-half reliability was 0.947, and test-retest reliability was 0.716. Item-level and scale-level (both universal agreement and average) content validity indices were 1.00. According to the Self-Efficacy for Managing Chronic Disease 6-item Scale, criterion validity for our scale was 0.251. Exploratory factor analysis extracted one factor and the cumulative variance contribution rate was 61.568%. Confirmatory factor analysis showed the model fit well (Χ 2=50.125, df=17, Χ 2 /df=2.949, root mean square error of approximation=0.095, confirmatory fit index=0.970). CONCLUSION The scale has good reliability and validity for patients with chronic kidney disease, representing an efficient instrument for clinical assessment of home blood pressure monitoring adherence.

Abstract
This study aimed to identify factors influencing self-management in patients with Parkinson's disease (PD) based on social cognitive theory. A cross-sectional design was used; data were collected at three tertiary medical centers in Korea from a convenience sample of 356 PD patients. Higher self-management scores were associated with higher education level, having a religion, and higher family income. Self-management score was positively correlated with activities of daily living, self-efficacy, and social support, and negatively correlated with non-motor symptoms. Hierarchical regression analysis revealed that demographic factors and non-motor symptoms explained 26.2% of the variance in self-management in PD. The explanatory power increased by 7.5% when self-efficacy was added, and by 6.7% when social support was added. Assessment of self-management in patients with PD should consider self-efficacy and social support, along with demographic factors and non-motor symptoms. Self-management programs that reflect these factors may be useful for improving self-management in PD patients.

Abstract
Web-based portals enable patients to access their electronic health records, including test results and clinical documents, from anywhere with Internet access. Some portals also serve as a means of two-way communication between patients and healthcare professionals and provide a platform for the recording of patient-entered data such as home blood pressure readings. Such systems are designed to encourage patient participation in the management of their condition, and ultimately to increase patient empowerment and self-management, which are associated with improved clinical outcomes. As an example of portal use in patients with renal conditions, we discuss the PatientView portal, which is offered free of cost to patients under the care of renal physicians in the UK. We present an account of its various features and briefly describe the user experience. Previous studies examining the impact of this portal on patient care have been very positive; it appears to be popular among users and overall levels of satisfaction with the service are high. As the use of patient portals increases, we discuss barriers to the more widespread use of portals. We offer suggestions on how the care of patients with renal conditions can be enhanced in the future by further developing the existing features, learning from experiences of other patient portals and providing better integration of portal use into the current model of care.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The tetrabromophenolphthalein ethyl ester (TBPE) assay has been used to quantify urinary albumin in point-of-care devices. We assessed the accuracy of this TBPE assay for urinary albumin through comparison with an established immunoturbidimetric method (ADVIA 1800 Chemistry System, Siemens). METHODS We developed a TBPE assay protocol to quantify albumin in the range associated with microalbuminuria (0-200 mg/L). The Jaffe reaction and a 3-dimensional (3D) surface were used to compensate for creatinine interference. Spiked simulated urine samples and patient samples were used to compare the TBPE assay with the immunoturbidimetric method. Multiple linear regression was used to analyze factors that could account for discrepancies between the 2 methods. RESULTS We found that creatinine interfered with the TBPE assay. To compensate, a 3D surface was successfully used to quantify albumin in spiked deionized water and simulated urine samples. In spiked simulated urine samples, the immunoturbidimetric method underestimated the albumin concentration by 2 to 45 mg/L, and the TBPE assay overestimated it by 9 to 82 mg/L. In patient samples, the albumin concentrations measured with the TBPE assay and the immunoturbidimetric method differed by an average of 184 mg/L. CONCLUSIONS The TBPE assay is a function of the creatinine concentration, and a 3D surface can be used to provide accurate albumin concentrations for standard samples. The corrected TBPE method and the immunoturbidimetric method deviated from known concentrations of spiked samples. Further investigation and comparisons with a third albumin measurement method, such as LC-MS/MS, are necessary before conclusions on the accuracy of the TBPE assay can be made.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Better self-management control in cancer survivors would benefit their functional status, quality of life, and health service utilization. Factors such as self-efficacy, social support, and coping style are important predictors of self-management behaviors of cancer survivors; however, the impact of these factors on self-management behaviors has not yet been empirically tested in Chinese cancer survivors. OBJECTIVES The aim of this study was to examine how self-efficacy, social support, and coping style affect specific self-management behaviors. METHODS A secondary data analysis was completed from a cross-sectional study. A total of 764 cancer survivors were recruited in the study. Validated instruments were used to assess patients' self-efficacy, social support, and coping style. Structural equation modeling (SEM) was used to test the hypothesis. RESULTS The SEM model fits the data very well, with root mean square error of approximation (RMSEA) of 0.034; close-fit test cannot reject the hypothesis of root mean square error of approximation of 0.05 or less, comparative fit index of 0.91, Tucker-Lewis index of 0.90, and weighted root mean square residual of 0.82. For the measurement models in the SEM, all items loaded highly on their underlying first-order factors, and the first-order factors loaded highly on their underlying second-order factors (self-efficacy and social support, respectively). The model demonstrated that self-efficacy and social support directly and indirectly, via coping style, affect 3 self-management behaviors (ie, communication, exercise, and information seeking). CONCLUSION Our results provide evidence that self-efficacy and social support impose significant direct effects, as well as indirect effects via copying style, on the self-management of cancer survivors. IMPLICATIONS FOR PRACTICE Our findings may help nurses to further improve their care of cancer survivors in terms of their self-management behaviors, specifically communication, exercise, and information seeking.

Abstract
Discussions of disability in the gerontological and the disability studies literatures have seldom considered unique perspectives and needs of older adults. Disability has often been stigmatized and viewed as antithetical to successful aging. We call for expansion of prevailing paradigms of disability to address the resilience and continuing human potential of older adults living with disabilities. In addition to recognizing the environmental context of disability, we propose greater attention to adaptive potential of disabled older adults. We discuss 6 types of proactive adaptations that can contribute to empowerment, meaning, enhanced quality of life and psychological well-being among persons living with late-life onset disabilities. These include: (a) helping others, (b) planning for future care, (c) marshaling intergenerational support, (d) self-advocacy for responsive health care, (e) making environmental modifications to improve safety and comfort of the home, and (f) finding strength in spiritual pursuits. Enacting proactive adaptations can contribute to resilience in facing late life impairments and functional limitations. Such efforts can complement utilization of services and obtaining accommodations. Maintaining life satisfaction among older adults living with disabilities also involves focus on transcendent personal goals and acceptance of an altered self. We note how a more integrative view of medical and social dimensions of disability, infused with concepts of human agency, contributes to rapprochement between alternative disciplinary orientations to late life disability. Without negating society’s important responsibilities for accommodating to needs of older adults living with disability, we reaffirm their potential for greater control and self-determination through proactive adaptations.

Abstract
BACKGROUND There is limited evidence on the relationship between social support and renal outcomes in African Americans. We sought to determine the association of social support with prevalent chronic kidney disease (CKD) and kidney function decline in an African American cohort. We also examined whether age modifies the association between social support and kidney function decline. METHODS We identified Jackson Heart Study (JHS) participants with baseline (Exam in 2000-2004) functional and structural social support data via the Interpersonal Support Evaluation List (ISEL) and social network size questions, respectively. With ISEL as our primary exposure variable, we performed multivariable regression models to evaluate the association between social support and prevalent CKD [estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) < 60 ml/min/1.73 m2 or urine albumin-creatinine ratio (ACR) ≥30 mg/g], eGFR decline, and rapid renal function decline (RRFD) (> 30% decrease in eGFR over approximately 10 years). All models were adjusted for baseline sociodemographics, diabetes, hypertension, smoking status, and body mass index; models for eGFR decline and RRFD were additionally adjusted for eGFR and ACR. In models for eGFR decline, we assessed for interaction between age and social support. For secondary analyses, we replaced ISEL with its individual domains (appraisal, belonging, self-esteem, and tangible) and social network size in separate models as exposure variables. RESULTS Of 5301 JHS participants, 4015 (76%) completed the ISEL at baseline. 843 (21%) had low functional social support (ISEL score < 32). Participants with low (vs. higher) functional social support were more likely to have lower income (47% vs. 28%), be current or former tobacco users (39% vs. 30%), have diabetes (25% vs. 21%) or CKD (14% vs. 12%). After multivariable adjustment, neither ISEL or social network size were independently associated with prevalent CKD, eGFR decline, or RRFD. Of the ISEL domains, only higher self-esteem was associated with lower odds of prevalent CKD [OR 0.94 (95% CI 0.89-0.99)]. The associations between social support measures and eGFR decline were not modified by age. CONCLUSIONS In this African-American cohort, social support was not associated with prevalent CKD or kidney function decline. Further inquiry of self-esteem's role in CKD self-management and renal outcomes is warranted.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Self-management support interventions are widely accepted in chronic kidney disease (CKD) care; however, interventions rarely consider individual behaviors by incorporating a behavioral theoretical framework. The Theoretical Domains Framework (TDF) can be used to facilitate an understanding of patients and their caregivers' behaviors to successfully self-manage CKD. OBJECTIVES (1) To understand behaviors of patients with CKD and their caregivers and identify potential intervention approaches to support CKD self-management and (2) to explore relationships between the 14 TDF domains and CKD self-management. DESIGN Qualitative descriptive study using both content and thematic analysis. SETTING Purposive criterion was used to recruit participants from across Canada. PATIENTS Canadian patients with CKD and their caregivers. MEASUREMENTS Focus groups and telephone interviews using a semistructured interview guide. METHODS We conducted a secondary analysis of qualitative data collected from focus groups and telephone interviews from July 2017 to January 2018. Two research team members coded the transcribed data to the 14 TDF domains using a modified approach of the Framework Method. We linked the common TDF domains to relevant intervention functions from the Behaviour Change Wheel (BCW) to identify potential intervention approaches. We also identified and mapped relationships between the relevant TDF domains to report emerging themes. RESULTS Six focus groups (37 participants) and 11 telephone interview transcripts were analyzed. Five TDF domains that influenced CKD self-management behavior were identified: environmental context and resources, knowledge, beliefs about capabilities, beliefs about consequences, and social influences. Four BCW intervention functions were identified: education, modeling, persuasion, and environmental restructuring. Four emergent themes, shaped by the populated 14 TDF domains, were identified: What does this mean for me? Help me help myself, How does this make me feel? and Who am I? LIMITATIONS The TDF was not used to design the interview guide; therefore, there may be underrepresentation of some TDF domains relevant for self-management. CONCLUSION Our findings highlight 5 TDF domains that can influence CKD self-management behavior and 4 possible intervention approaches to influence behavior change in patients with CKD and their caregivers. Emergent themes highlight participants' interpretation of being diagnosed with CKD, their motivations, feelings, values, and altered identity. This work will inform the codesign of a behavior change intervention to enhance patient self-management of CKD.
