“…We also found a significantly higher self-efficacy score among both employed patients and those with higher educational level compared to unemployed and less educated patients, respectively. These results are in consistency with those of previous studies where similar associations were reported [27,29].…”

“…This association can also be attributed to the fact that people with higher BMI, in general, tend to be less physically active, which in turn can negatively affect their self-efficacy as was found in a previous study conducted in Nigeria [28]. This association between selfefficacy and physical exercise has also been reported in many studies including a study conducted in china [11] and a more recent study conducted in Pakistan [29].…”

Background Self-efficacy is a widely applied psychosocial concept that is commonly used in association with management of chronic diseases, including hypertension. The aim of this study was to assess self-efficacy of hypertension management and patient-physician communication, as well as the factors associated with self-efficacy and patient-physician communication among patients with hypertension in Palestine. Methods We conducted face-to-face, questionnaire-based interviews using validated instruments to assess self-efficacy in managing hypertension (Self-Efficacy for Managing Chronic Disease 6-Item Scale (SES6C)) and patient-physician communication (Perceived Efficacy in Patient-Physician Interaction Questionnaire (PEPPI)) in patients with hypertension at the three main primary healthcare centers in Nablus district in northern West Bank, Palestine. We also performed a multiple linear regression analysis to determine the variables independently associated with PEPPI and SES6C scores. Results We enrolled 377 participants with hypertension in this study. The average age (measured in years) was 56.8 with a standard deviation of 11.6. The mean PEPPI and SES6C scores were 20.0 (SD 4.4) and 41.1 (SD 10.6), respectively. In a multiple linear regression model, subjects who were city dwellers (B=3.597, p=0.004), and subjects with high education levels (B=4.010, p=0.001) achieved higher PEPPI scores, whereas subjects in the normal weight category (B=5.566, p<0.001) and those with higher PEPPI scores (B=0.706, p<0.001) achieved higher SES6C scores. Conclusions We found that impairment in self-efficacy was linked to overweight and obesity, as well as lower patient-physician communication. Moreover, our results showed that lower patient-physician communication was independently associated with low education level as well as non-city residency types. We recommend making the appropriate changes by both the policy-makers and the health care providers to improve the health facilities and its services, especially outside the cities. We also suggest holding specific counseling and training session on the management and control of hypertension.

Background The rising burden of type 2 diabetes mellitus (DM) and its associated complications is affecting the functional capacity of the individuals, their quality of life and demand for healthcare services with significant economic impact on health care systems and the national economies. Given the enormous health and economic impact, preventing type 2 DM progression and reducing the risk of complications require immediate attention. Evidence from western countries suggests that self-management can slow the progression of type 2 DM and minimize the risk of major complications lowering health-care costs. Effective self-management, however, demands patients’ confidence and their full commitment to perform self-care tasks necessitating a patient-centered approach. This study aims to test the efficacy of a patient-centered self-management intervention to improve glycemic control, self-efficacy and self-care behaviors in adults with type 2 DM. Patients and Methods The study will be carried out as a parallel arm, randomized, controlled trial in four public tertiary care hospitals in Faisalabad, Pakistan. A total of 612 patients with type 2 DM will be recruited and randomly assigned to two groups: a control and an intervention group. The intervention group will receive a patient-centered self-management intervention for eight weeks duration. Subjects will be followed up for three months. The primary outcome will be glycemic control (HbA1c), and secondary outcome variables will include self-efficacy and self-care behaviors all measured at three points in time (baseline, at the end of intervention and at three months follow-up). Discussion This randomized controlled trial will provide critical information about the efficacy of patient-centered self-management intervention in improving HbA1c, self-efficacy and self-care behaviors. If successful, this evidence-based care intervention may be provided to all DM patients by updating hospital policies. Trial Registration NIH: US National Library of Medicine clinicaltrials.gov Identifier: NCT05491252, Shifa Tameer e Millat University Protocol Record: 335-21. Registration date: August 08, 2022.
