Abstract
OBJECTIVES With support from others, individuals with depression can build skills and implement lifestyle changes that help them manage their illness. The objective of the current study was to understand how the CarePartners for Depression Program, a randomized clinical trial aimed at enhancing the role of caregivers in the management of depression, improved communication and shared understandings of depression among individuals with depression and their close others. METHODS We conducted in-depth, semi-structured interviews with individuals with depression and their caregivers who participated in the CarePartners program. Interviews were qualitatively coded using a thematic analytic framework. RESULTS We conducted individual interviews with 39 participants in the CarePartners program, including 18 individuals with depression, 14 out-of-home care partners, and 7 informal caregivers. Three central themes were derived from analyses: (a) The quality of interpersonal relationships influenced the management of depression; (2) having clearly defined roles for CarePartners improved communication between CarePartners and individuals with depression; and (3) shared understanding of depression improved management of depression. DISCUSSION Our findings established the conditions under which the management of depression was influenced in a dyadic intervention. Dyadic interventions may make it easier for individuals to support patients with depression by fostering communication and collaboration.

Lancey A, Slater CE. Heart failure self-management: a scoping review of interventions implemented by allied health professionals. Disabil Rehabil 2023:1-12. [PMID: 37975543 DOI: 10.1080/09638288.2023.2283105] [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: 05/30/2023] [Accepted: 11/09/2023] [Indexed: 11/19/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Heart failure (HF) is typically managed using both medical and patient self-management interventions. Individuals with HF often have frequent readmissions to hospital for medical management. Effective self-management can help to reduce the exacerbation of HF symptoms and the frequency of readmissions. METHODS A scoping review following Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses Scoping Review (PRISMA-ScR) guidelines was conducted to identify literature on the interventions used by allied health professionals to promote HF self-management. A search strategy was implemented, and articles were reviewed by two independent reviewers. RESULTS Twenty articles met the inclusion criteria. Articles included interventions from physical therapy, nutrition, social work, and occupational therapy, as well as other health professions in team-based programs. The most common interventions were verbal education, textual information, monitoring resources, and skills practice. Interventions addressed diet/fluid control, exercise and activity, symptom monitoring, medication management, cardiovascular disease knowledge, and mental health. Many interventions were theory informed. CONCLUSION There is nascent evidence that interventions promoting HF self-management positively impact health and quality of life outcomes. HF self-management is multi-faceted and requires interprofessional collaboration. Further work is warranted exploring the impact of theory-informed interventions, and the effectiveness of interventions on self-management competence and desired health outcomes.

Abstract
Objective The purpose of this scoping review was to summarize the literature on barriers and facilitators that influence the provision and uptake of inpatient cardiac rehabilitation (ICR). Methods A literature search was conducted using PsycINFO, MEDLINE, EMBASE, CINAHL and AgeLine. Studies were included if they were published in English after the year 2000 and focused on adults who were receiving some form of ICR (eg, exercise counselling and training, education for heart-healthy living). For studies meeting inclusion criteria, descriptive data on authors, year, study design, and intervention type were extracted. Results The literature search resulted in a total of 44,331 publications, of which 229 studies met inclusion criteria. ICR programs vary drastically and often focus on promoting physical exercises and patient education. Barriers and facilitators were categorized through patient, provider and system level factors. Individual characteristics and provider knowledge and efficacy were categorized as both barriers and facilitators to ICR delivery and uptake. Team functioning, lack of resources, program coordination, and inconsistencies in evaluation acted as key barriers to ICR delivery and uptake. Key facilitators that influence ICR implementation and engagement include accreditation and professional associations and patient and family-centred practices. Conclusion ICR programs can be highly effective at improving health outcomes for those living with CVDs. Our review identified several patient, provider, and system-level considerations that act as barriers and facilitators to ICR delivery and uptake. Future research should explore how to encourage health promotion knowledge amongst ICR staff and patients.

Effects of a health psychology-based intervention for patients with asplenia on psychological determinants of preventive behaviour: A propensity score analysis. PATIENT EDUCATION AND COUNSELING 2023; 114:107851. [PMID: 37329725 DOI: 10.1016/j.pec.2023.107851] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/01/2023] [Revised: 05/26/2023] [Accepted: 06/06/2023] [Indexed: 06/19/2023]
Abstract
OBJECTIVE Patients with asplenia have an increased lifelong risk of severe infections especially post splenectomy sepsis with hospital mortality rates of 30-50%. Adherence to existing guidelines for preventive measures is low. Objective of the study is the evaluation of a novel intervention to increase health psychological outcomes in patients with asplenia resulting in better adherence to preventive measures. METHODS The intervention was evaluated by conducting a prospective, two-armed historical control group design via propensity score analysis. Focus are health-psychological outcomes: self-efficacy, intention, risk perception, behaviour planning, self-management, health literacy, patient involvement and disease-knowledge. RESULTS Patients in the intervention group (N = 110) showed a higher increase in almost all outcomes compared to a historical control group (N = 115). The strongest increase was observed in "asplenia-specific self-management" (average treatment effect: ATE 1.14 [95% CI 0.91-1.36] p < .001) and "asplenia-specific health-literacy" (ATE 1.42 [95% CI 1.18-1.65] p < .001). Significant intervention effects were also found in behaviour planning, perceived involvement and disease-knowledge. CONCLUSION The patient-focused intervention is effective in improving health-psychological outcomes in patients with asplenia. PRACTICE IMPLICATIONS The implementation of the intervention can make an important contribution to care and lead to an improvement of health-psychological outcomes that may result in a higher adherence to prevention measures.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Heart failure (HF) symptoms improve through self-care, for which adherence remains low among patients despite the provision of education for these behaviours by clinical teams. Open Access Digital Community Promoting Self-Care, Peer Support and Health Literacy (ODYSSEE-vCHAT) combines automated digital counselling with social network support to improve mortality and morbidity, engagement with self-care materials, and health-related quality of life. METHODS AND ANALYSIS Use of ODYSSEE-vCHAT via Internet-connected personal computer by 162 HF patients will be compared with a control condition over 22 months. The primary outcome is a composite index score of all-cause mortality, all-cause emergency department visits, and HF-related hospitalisation at trial completion. Secondary outcomes include individual components of the composite index, engagement with self-care materials, and patient-reported measures of physical and psychosocial well-being, disease management, health literacy, and substance use. Patients are recruited from tertiary care hospitals in Toronto, Canada and randomised on a 1:1 ratio to both arms of the trial. Online assessments occur at baseline (t=0), months 4, 8 and 12, and trial completion. Ordinal logistic regression analyses and generalised linear models will evaluate primary and secondary outcomes. ETHICS AND DISSEMINATION The trial has been approved by the research ethics boards at the University Health Network (20-5960), Sunnybrook Hospital (5117), and Mount Sinai Hospital (21-022-E). Informed consent of eligible patients occurs in person or online. Findings will be shared with key stakeholders and the public. Results will allow for the preparation of a Canada-wide phase III trial to evaluate the efficacy of ODYSSEE-vCHAT in improving clinical outcomes and raising the standard of outpatient care. TRIAL REGISTRATION NUMBER NCT04966104.

Abstract
Remote patient monitoring allows monitoring high-risk patients through implementation of an expanding number of technologies in coordination with a healthcare team to augment care, with the potential to provide early detection of exacerbation, prompt access to therapy and clinical services, and ultimately improved patient outcomes and decreased healthcare utilization.In this review, we describe the application of remote patient monitoring in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease including the potential benefits and possible barriers to implementation both for the individual and the healthcare system.

Abstract
Aging is accompanied by many chronic comorbidities and disabilities, and entails medical expenses, which affects the quality of life among older adults. The purpose of this study was to investigate whether the health status of older adults with chronic diseases mediates chronic disease self-management to predict quality of life. METHODS This research adopted a cross-sectional correlation study design. Convenient sampling was performed in outpatient departments commonly visited by older adults in a medical center in Southern Taiwan. The following measures were collected: (1) Physiological measurement: left handgrip, right handgrip, and lower extremities' muscle strength. (2) Questionnaires: cognitive function was measured by the Alzheimer's disease (AD)-8 scale, possible frailty with the Kihon Checklist (KCL), functional status with the Barthel Index (BI) and the Lawton and Brody Instrumental Activities of Daily Living (IADL) scales, and self-management for chronic disease and quality of life with the (WHOQOL)-BREF, Taiwan version. RESULTS Chronic disease self-management is correlated with health status and is directly related to quality of life. Chronic disease self-management also indirectly affects quality of life through health status (cognitive status and risk of frailty), showing that health status partly mediates the correlation between chronic disease self-management and quality of life. CONCLUSIONS A health status feedback system should be introduced in related chronic disease self-management measures for older adults so that they can be aware of their own health status and so that their quality of life is improved. Custom-made nursing interventions are necessary for the reduction in or delay of disability or risk of frailty in older adults, thereby enhancing their quality of life.

Abstract
Poorer health outcomes are correlated with depression/anxiety in a rural population. Electronic modes of recruitment engage those reporting depression/anxiety into CDSME. CDSME increases patient activation regardless of history of depression/anxiety.
Chronic disease self-management education (CDSME) programs benefit individuals with chronic diseases, including mental health conditions, by improving health-related outcomes and increasing engagement with the health care system. Recruiting individuals with a history of mental health conditions to participate in CDSME is challenging, particularly in rural, underserved areas. Hence, it is important to understand factors associated with the presence of mental health conditions, and impacts of CDSME on patient engagement. This project identifies individual and program-level characteristics, as well as recruitment characteristics, associated with reporting a history of depression and/or anxiety. It also assesses factors related to program engagement and the relationship between completing CDSME and patient activation. Data were collected during CDSME workshops offered in 2019 in a rural region of New York. Of the 421 enrollees who completed survey instruments, 162 reported a history of depression and/or anxiety. Univariate analyses indicated that those reporting a history of depression and/or anxiety were younger, female, in poorer health, had more comorbidities, were Medicaid beneficiaries, and had lower patient activation scores. They also heard about and signed up for the workshop through the internet at higher rates than those not reporting a history of depression and/or anxiety. Multivariable logistic regression modeling indicated age, self-rated health, and number of comorbidities were independent predictors of reporting a history of depression and/or anxiety. Among CDSME completers, patient activation significantly improved regardless of history of depression and/or anxiety. Engaging individuals with mental health conditions in CDSME requires a multimodal recruitment strategy incorporating electronic marketing and registration.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Heart failure (HF) is a multifaceted syndrome that requires self-management for adherence to treatment to control symptoms. Symptoms need to be monitored to prevent impending HF exacerbations. Few HF study authors have assessed efficacy of mobile health (mHealth) interventions particularly with virtual visits to evaluate outcomes such as symptoms and healthcare utilization. OBJECTIVE The aim of this pilot study was to evaluate the potential effect of mHealth self-management interventions on symptom status and health-related quality of life and describe health care utilization in patients with HF. METHODS This 3-month pilot study included 74 patients with HF and used a randomized 3-group repeated-measures design (enhanced usual care, mHealth, and mHealth plus [+] virtual visits). Surveys included the Heart Failure Symptom Survey, EuroQol, and a specialized phone application for patients to report weights and medications. RESULTS The mHealth groups had an overall decrease in most symptom severity and frequency, particularly shortness of breath. Compared to enhanced usual care, both the mHealth+ and mHealth groups showed promise with medium effect sizes (range .55-.60) in relation to shortness of breath and a medium effect (.51) for lower extremity edema for the mHealth+ group. There was a trend toward improvement in health-related quality of life in both intervention groups at month 3. The mHealth+ group had fewer rehospitalizations. CONCLUSIONS In general, both mHealth groups fared better on symptoms and health care utilization. Small to medium effect sizes on selected symptom outcomes warrant this study to be conducted in a fully powered study. Virtual visits may assist in symptom recognition and self-management.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To evaluate the effectiveness of a self-management treatment added to a physical therapy program compared to a physical therapy program in patients with chronic neck pain. METHODS Fifty-three patients with chronic neck pain were randomly allocated to a physical therapy intervention (control group) or an individualized self-management combined with physical therapy intervention (experimental group). Both interventions were developed over a four-week period. Outcome measures included were Disability, Fear-Avoidance Beliefs, Health-Related Quality of Life, Pain, and Anxiety and Depression. All outcomes were measured before and after the treatment and at three-month follow-up. RESULTS There were not significant differences between groups at baseline. After the intervention both groups obtained better results in the Neck Disability Index but there were not significant differences between them (p > 0.05). At follow-up, the self-management group obtained significant better results compared to the control group (95 % CI: -5.20(-6.8 to -1.5), p = 0.032). CONCLUSIONS An individualized self-management program added to a physical therapy program led to a greater improvement in disability at 3 months follow up compared to a physical therapy program alone. Catastrophizing, pain, and health-related quality of life improved significantly after the intervention and at follow-up compared to the standard care alone. PRACTICAL IMPLICATIONS This study indicates that physical therapy for patients with chronic neck pain preferably should include self-management education.

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
INTRODUCTION Superior outcomes have been reported among hemodialysis (HD) patients who take active control over their dialysis treatment either at self-care satellite dialysis units or home compared to the regular in-center hemodialysis patient. Although the differences between the home hemodialysis (HHD) and self-care in-center HD (SCHD) are not well described, the growing literature on the superior outcomes of HHD suggests that HHD is the better option. METHODS We performed a cross-sectional study in a stand-alone self-care unit to examine the differences in patients that are keen to consider HHD and those who are not. FINDINGS A cross-sectional sample of 44 patients completed a structured interview and the distress thermometer score used to assess psychological stress. Only 68% of patients reported to have heard about the benefits of HHD despite the long-established history and availability of the modality in the unit. One of the more critical findings in our study was that the cohort of patients who were keen to consider HHD believed that self-care and HHD would improve their quality of life (P < 0.05). Specifically, the perceived benefits stated by those willing to consider HHD were the lack of need to travel, association with better outcomes and the possibility of having the treatment in the comfort of home (P < 0.05). DISCUSSION We surmise that the answers expressed in this survey likely reflect a difference in perceptions of self-care and beliefs about HHD; hence, the importance of introducing HHD education earlier in the course of their chronic kidney disease journey.

Abstract
Background Self-care behavior has been reported to be below optimum in persons with heart failure, while the underlying decision making is not well understood. The Hot/Cool System model is a psychological model that may have potential applications in decision making process in persons with heart failure. The aim of this study was to examine the decision making process in self-care behavior in persons with heart failure in the light of the Hot/Cool System model. Methods We used the Hoot/Cool System Model to guide this study. Participants with heart failure from in-patients setting (N = 107) were recruited. Data were collected using self-report questionnaires. Moderated mediation analysis was used to study complex relationships among study variables. Results The current study showed that impulsivity and perceived stress were negatively associated with self-care behavior. The results also showed that self-care confidence and impulsivity significantly predict self-care maintenance. The moderated mediation analysis revealed that self-care confidence mediated the relationship between impulsivity and self-care maintenance at lower levels of perceived stress, but not at higher levels of perceived stress. Conclusion Our findings revealed that persons with heart failure tend to make impulsive choices that may negatively affect disease progression under higher levels of perceived stress. This study provides foundational knowledge regarding the decision making process in persons with heart failure.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To assess heart failure (HF) knowledge, adherence to lifestyle recommendations, and quality of life (QOL) among Koreans with HF and identify factors influencing QOL. METHODS A cross-sectional and correlational design was used and a total of 142 Koreans with HF were recruited between April 2012 and September 2013. Data were analyzed using multiple logistic regression with SPSS version 21.0. RESULTS The mean age of participants was 64.1 ± 7.4 years. A higher proportion of participants were male, married, unemployed, had a high education level, and class I New York Heart Association (NYHA) functional status. A higher proportion of participants had ≥2 comorbidities and the most prevalent comorbidity was diabetes. The mean score of HF knowledge was 6.9 (possible range 0-15) and the most frequent incorrect items were "proper actions to reduce thirst" and "causes of leg swelling" in both better and worse QOL groups. Among the recommended lifestyle, pneumococcal vaccination had the least adherence in both groups. Multiple logistic regression showed that patients in NYHA class I, with a higher left ventricular ejection fraction, who had knowledge of "amount of fluid intake a day" and consumed more than moderate alcohol tended to have better QOL. Conclusion: More active interventions targeting HF knowledge in proper actions to reduce thirst, causes of leg swelling, and the amount of fluid intake per day are required. Patients with HF in more serious condition need special attention regarding the risk of worse QOL. The role of alcohol consumption in QOL among HF patients in Korea needs further exploration.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Heart failure (HF) is a multifactorial syndrome with repercussions on quality of life (QoL). OBJECTIVES To investigate the main interacting factors responsible to worsen quality of life of outpatients with HF. METHODS Cross-sectional observational study with 99 patients of both genders, attending a HF outpatient clinic at a university hospital, all with a reduced ejection fraction (<40%) by echocardiography. They were evaluated using sociodemographic and clinical questionnaires, the Minnesota Living with Heart Failure (MLwHF), and the Hospital Anxiety and Depression scale (HADS). QoL was the outcome variable. Two multivariate models were used: the parametric beta regression analysis, and the non-parametric regression tree, considering p < 0.05 and 0.05 < p < 0.10 for statistical and clinical significance, respectively. RESULTS Beta regression showed that depression and anxiety symptoms worsened the QoL of HF patients, as well as male sex, age younger than 60 years old, lower education level, lower monthly family income, recurrent hospitalizations and comorbidities such as ischemic heart diseases and arterial hypertension. The regression tree confirmed that NYHA functional class III and IV worsen all dimensions of MLwHF by interacting with anxiety symptoms, which influenced directly or indirectly the presence of poorer total score and emotional dimension of MLwHF. Previous hospitalization in the emotional dimension and age younger than 60 years in general dimension were associated with anxiety and NYHA functional class, also worsening the QoL of HF patients. CONCLUSION HF with reduced ejection fraction was associated with poorer MLwHF. Anxiety symptoms, previous hospitalization and younger age were also associated with worsened MLwHF. Knowledge of these risk factors can therefore guide assessment and treatment of HF patients.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The Rehabilitation Strategies in Esophagogastric cancer (RESTORE) randomized controlled trial evaluated the efficacy of a 12-week multidisciplinary program to increase the cardiorespiratory fitness and health-related quality of life (HRQOL) of esophagogastric cancer survivors. BACKGROUND Patients following treatment for esophagogastric cancer are at risk of physical deconditioning, nutritional compromise, and sarcopenia. Accordingly, compelling rationale exists to target these impairments in recovery. METHODS Disease-free patients treated for esophagogastric cancer were randomized to either usual care or the 12-week RESTORE program (exercise training, dietary counseling, and multidisciplinary education). The primary outcome was cardiopulmonary exercise testing (VO2peak). Secondary outcomes included body composition (bioimpedance analysis), and HRQOL (EORTC-QLQ-C30). Outcomes were assessed at baseline (T0), postintervention (T1), and at 3-month follow-up (T2). RESULTS Twenty-two participants were randomized to the control group [mean (standard deviation) age 64.14 (10.46) yr, body mass index 25.67 (4.83) kg/m, time postsurgery 33.68 (19.56) mo], and 21 to the intervention group [age 67.19(7.49) yr, body mass index 25.69(4.02) kg/m, time postsurgery 23.52(15.23) mo]. Mean adherence to prescribed exercise sessions were 94(12)% (supervised) and 78(27)% (unsupervised). Correcting for baseline VO2peak, the intervention arm had significantly higher VO2peak at both T1, 22.20 (4.35) versus 21.41 (4.49) mL · min · kg, P < 0.001, and T2, 21.75 (4.27) versus 20.74 (4.65) mL · min · kg, P = 0.001, compared with the control group. Correcting for baseline values, no changes in body composition or HRQOL were observed. CONCLUSIONS The RESTORE program significantly improved cardiorespiratory fitness of disease-free patients after esophagogastric cancer surgery, without compromise to body composition. This randomized controlled trial provides proof of principle for rehabilitation programs in esophagogastric cancer. CLINICAL TRIAL REGISTRATION NUMBER NCT03314311.

Abstract
Telehealth is an intervention that can assist patients with heart failure to manage their symptoms at home. However, it is reported that between 24-70% of eligible patients do not receive telehealth. This study aimed to explore factors associated with the initiation of telehealth among home care patients with heart failure using the Outcome and Assessment Information Set data (N = 2,832). The findings indicate patients who received high-risk drugs education by visiting nurses had an 80% increase in the odds of receiving telehealth, and patients who received no assistance from caregivers had a 46% decrease in odds compared to those who were assisted at least daily.

Abstract
The current pre- and posttest intervention study is designed for individuals with chronic symptoms and stress associated with mild-to-moderate traumatic brain injury (TBI). The researchers' intent was to evaluate whether an 8-week mindfulness-based group therapy compared to health promotion active control group therapy reduces chronic stress, TBI symptoms, and depressive symptoms. Significant mean reductions in chronic stress and TBI depressive and general symptoms for individuals in the mindfulness group compared to the active control group were present, according to paired t test analyses. Further, while controlling for baseline scores, the mindfulness-based intervention group change score was greater compared to the control group using regression analyses. Results suggest that mindfulness-based group intervention for individuals with chronic difficulties after TBI is feasible and effective. Further study of this cost-effective and self-management approach to stress and symptom management is warranted and has the potential to be a broad-based intervention for early therapy after injury.

Abstract
The progress of the pharmacological and device treatment of heart failure (HF) has led to a substantial improvement of mortality and rehospitalization. Further potential for improvement may be heralded in the post-discharge management of HF patients, including patient education for self-management of HF. The study by Musekamp et al. is among the first publications providing evidence that improvements in self-management skills may improve outcomes of HF patients. It is concluded that multimodal approaches addressing comorbidities in HF patients with novel concepts, and by optimal and specific HF management, including patient education, may ultimately contribute to substantial improvement of HF prognosis.
