Drawing asthma: An exploration of patients' perceptions and experiences

Abstract: The drawings provided powerful and evocative communication of the experience of asthma. Future research using drawings can further both healthcare professionals' and patients' understanding of the physical, social and emotional demands of living with asthma, and support the development of asthma self-management practices.

“…It is quite likely that the drawing instruction (“draw how you imagine your lungs to be […] we are interested in your ideas about what your lungs look like”) encouraged patients to try to draw a factual, anatomical representation of lungs, rather than a symbolic representation of symptoms that patients associate with their COPD. In other studies, patients’ drawings explicitly show symbols of strong emotions, for instance of being scared because of attacks of asthma (ropes encircling the thorax), 19 daggers and thunder bolts in migraine, 28 and blood and symbols of death in myocardial infarction. 23 Future studies should consider using instructions to also draw emotions associated with having COPD.…”

“…Desde esta lectura es importante la evaluación de las subdimensiones del MSCRE para identificar cómo cada persona percibe su enfermedad y trazar la asociación con desenlaces en la enfermedad. Para hacer dicha evaluación hay diversos modos, como 1) ítems únicos, diseñados con base en el proceso del MSCRE, dirigidos a una enfermedad específica, y que implican un análisis individualizado de la percepción de la enfermedad (Mora y McAndrew, 2013;Pacheco et al, 2012); 2) dibujos que permiten identificar las percepciones y atribuciones de la enfermedad y los síntomas, además del efecto percibido de los tratamientos médicos en la condición o sintomatología de los pacientes (Cheung, Saini, y Smith, 2017;Petrie y Weinman, 2006;Petrie, y Weinman, 2012); y 3) instrumentos de evaluación, que tienen un conjunto más amplio de ítems para evaluar el nivel que hay en cada una de las subdimensiones del MSCRE (Mora y McAndrew, 2013;Moss-Morris et al, 2002;Weinman, Petrie, Moss-Morris, y Horne, 1996).…”
