Effects of Self-management Program applying Dongsasub Training on Self-efficacy, Self-esteem, Self-management Behavior and Blood Pressure in Older Adults with Hypertension

Abstract

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to develop a self-management program applying Dongsasub training based on self-efficacy theory, and to verify the program effectiveness on self-esteem as well as self-efficacy, self-management behaviors, and blood pressure. Methods: The study design was a non-equivalent, pre-post controlled quasi-experiment study. Thirty-eight patients aged 65 and older from a senior welfare center in Seoul participated in this study (20 patients in the experimental group and 18 patients in the control group). The self-management program applying Dongsasub training consisted of eight sessions. After development was complete the program was used with the experimental group. Outcome variables included self-efficacy, self-esteem, self-management behaviors measured by questionnaires, and blood pressure measured by electronic manometer. Results: Self-efficacy (t=2.42, p=.021), self-esteem (t=2.57, p=.014) and self-management behaviors (t=2.21, p=.034) were significantly higher and systolic blood pressure (t=-2.14, p=.040) was significantly lower in the experimental group compared to the control group. However, diastolic blood pressure (t=-.85, p=.400) was not significantly different between the two groups. Conclusion: The results indicate that the self-management program applying Dongsasub training can be used as a nursing intervention in community settings for improving self-management behaviors for older adults with hypertension.Key words: Meditation, Hypertension, Self-efficacy, Self-esteem, Self-management 연구 목적 및 가설 본 연구의 목적은 고혈압 노인을 위한 자기관리행위 증진프로그램

Linking Health Literacy to Self-Care in Hypertensive Patients with Physical Disabilities: A Path Analysis Using a Multi-Mediation Model

“…First, the participants in this study appeared to have an average hypertension selfcare score of 57.2. This was relatively low, compared to those of the hypertensive older adults found in other studies, whose mean scores ranged between 60.0 and 68.1 [32,40]. Self-care behavior has been revealed to be an essential component in the management of hypertension to prevent complications [6].…”

“…Gender, duration of hypertension, and functional limitation were included as the covariance of self-care behaviors in the path analytic model. Gender and duration of hypertension are well-recognized determinants of hypertension self-care behaviors [40]. The functional limitation measured by WG-SS was used to define the degree of functional limitation in performing daily activities, and it was also a determinant of the ability to practice self-care [19].…”

The effectiveness of a mobile phone education-based on self-efficacy and DASH diet among patient with high blood pressure: a randomized controlled trial

“…Results proved in other semi-experimental study in Korean population. Results showed better self-e cacy, self-esteem along with signi cantly lower SBP and DBP [49]. Other cross-sectional studies also evaluated the possible association between self-e cacy and self-care management of HTN.…”

“…Others showed bene cial effects of self-e cacy in controlling wide range of diseases like cardiovascular disease [45], rheumatoid arthritis [46], chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) [47] and dialysis patients [48]. In HTN patients also improvement of self-e cacy showed better management of blood pressure in these patients [49].…”
