“…These findings are lower than those of Urnes et al, 16 who reported a mean GERD knowledge score of 13.1 at 2 months and 14.0 at 12 months in patients allocated to a control group (range, 0-24). These findings may suggest that degree of GERD knowledge in Korea is lower than that of Western countries.…”

“…Degree of disease knowledge was assessed using the translated Korean version (Supplementary Table) of the Urnes' descriptive survey items (Appendix). 16 In the development of the Korean version of the questionnaire, we first asked for the original author's permission via email. Upon permission, the original instrument was translated, back-translated, and tested for reproducibility using a sample of patients and nurses.…”

Background/Aims Patient education has been shown to be beneficial in several diseases. To properly educate patients with gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD), it is necessary to understand how much they already know about their disease. However, no study has examined the degree of disease knowledge in Korean patients with GERD. Therefore, we conducted this study to assess the degree of knowledge in such patients. Methods This multicenter prospective study was conducted from January 2014 to January 2015. A total of 746 patients (mean age, 52 years; 57.6% female) were enrolled from 7 hospitals in Korea. Inclusion criteria were diagnosis of GERD and ability to properly complete a survey. Degree of disease knowledge was assessed using the translated, validated Korean Urnes questionnaire, which consists of 22 items related to GERD. Results Mean percentage of correct answers was 46.3% and mean GERD knowledge score was 9.6. Degree of knowledge (mean percentage of correct answers) regarding etiology, prognosis, and treatment of GERD were 49.5%, 36.7%, and 37.5%, respectively. Degree of disease knowledge differed significantly according to age ( P < 0.001), education ( P < 0.001), income ( P = 0.028), and occupation ( P < 0.001). In multivariate analysis, using multiple logistic regression, the higher knowledge score group tended to have higher education and professional occupation. Conclusions The surveyed Korean patients had relatively low disease knowledge, suggesting that a GERD educational program may be beneficial in Korea. Formulation of a program is underway.

“…Improved quality of life was only seen in patients with education limited to primary school, suggesting that better educated patients are more knowledgeable about GORD and may manage their symptoms more effectively. 24 Symptom severity or impact of knowledge on disease management were not measured, so it is not known whether that intervention improved the patients' perception and experience of their illness. Contrary to other patient education programme guidance, that study did not appear to include the key components that are known to support patient self-management of illness.…”

Gastro-esophageal reflux disease (GERD) is a chronic disease defined as the ascent of the gastric content that causes symptoms or structural damage of the esophageal mucosa. In GERD, lifestyle modification plays a key role in prevention or treatment and appropriate modification is recommended as the first step in therapeutic system. Aim was to evaluate the effect of lifestyle modification sessions on knowledge, self-management and physical symptoms of patient with Gastro-esophageal Reflux Disease. Research design a quasi -experimental design was used. Setting was conducted in medical outpatient clinics of governmental hospital located in Port-Said City; Egypt. Sample A purpose sample consists of (64) adult new patients Random al location technique used to divide the sample into control (32) and study group (32). Tools: four tools were used for data collection1) Patient's interview questionnaire; 2) The Gastro-esophageal Reflux Disease Questionnaire; 3) The Gastro-esophageal Reflux Disease Questionnaire: it adopted questionnaire and 4) lifestyle guidelines success indicators Sheet. Results: revealed that there was statistical significant improvement of knowledge, self-management and physical symptoms among study group who received life style modification sessions than in control group. Conclusion & recommendation: The results of the study showed the effectiveness of the lifestyle modification sessions in improving the self-management of GERD patients and the physical symptoms of the disease through improved patient knowledge of the disease according to their needs. Therefore the study recommends the guidelines addressed as part of the medical management approach.
