Produktbeschreibung
COPD patients have reported dissatisfaction with the
self-management education they are provided. This
mixed methods pilot study assessed the self-
management learning needs of COPD patients treated
at a Certified Federal Rural Health Clinic through
conducting focus group interviews to inform the
development a targeted self-management education
DVD. The effectiveness of 3 distinct educational
treatments (DVD vs. Pamphlet vs. DVD + Pamphlet) was
evaluated by comparing outcomes related to
informational needs, self-management self-efficacy,
and generic/lung-specific HRQoL in a randomly-
assigned, multiple-group pretest-posttest design
with a control group. Participants receiving a DVD
reported statistically significantly higher levels
of lung-specific physical functioning as compared to
those in the Pamphlet group. Additionally, the DVD
group revealed clinically significant improvements
on the physical (+19.01) and emotional (+10.74)
functioning dimensions of lung-specific HRQoL;
whereas, no such improvement occurred within the
Pamphlet and control groups.
