“…The result showed that 93.14% of patients had normal or even positive emotional states, which implied that the epidemic did not have a very negative impact on the mood of these IBD patients in such a relatively early month. However, since previous studies have shown that emotional stress is significantly associated with decreased quality of life [ 29 , 30 ], it was very important to intervene in the emotional state in the process of IBD patient self-management guidance.…”

Objective: This study aimed to assess the disease conditions of patients with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) in Hubei Province during the outbreak of Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) by questionnaire online and guide their self-management during this epidemic. Results: A total of 102 eligible questionnaires were included. No patient we surveyed reported a diagnosis of COVID-19. Our result showed that 67.86% of patients with ulcerative colitis (UC) and 80.43% of patients with Crohn's disease (CD) were in remission, 85.29%of patients had a good quality of life. Part of the patients (21.57%) reported their disease conditions worsening. The reduction in physical exercise was a risk factor for worsening conditions (OR=17.593, p=0.009). Some patients reported an alteration of medication regimens during the epidemic. Conclusions: The epidemic of COVID-19 might have a certain impact on many aspects of Hubei IBD patients within four weeks after the traffic control. Doctors could utilize the results from our questionnaire to guide IBD patients’ self-management. Methods: A questionnaire was designed containing the Harvey-Bradshaw Index (HBI), the 6-point Mayo Score, the short inflammatory bowel disease questionnaire (SIBDQ) and distributed to Hubei IBD patients online within four weeks of traffic control after the outbreak, it also included questions about patients’ self-reported disease conditions and their epidemiological features of COVID-19.

“…Additionally, disease activity can be influenced by other patientrelated factors including depression, anxiety, and social support. 27,28 Our study has multiple strengths, including the large sample size available for analysis through the IBD Partners cohort and the ability to assess disease activity at multiple time points. However, our study has limitations as well.…”

A Novel Patient-Reported Outcome-Based Evaluation (PROBE) of Quality of Life in Patients With Inflammatory Bowel Disease

et al. 2019

Objectives: There is increased interest in measuring patient reported outcomes (PROs) such as quality of life (QoL) among patients with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). We aimed to create and validate a new measure of QoL to assess the psychosocial burden of IBD, using publicly available assessment tools. Methods: Using the Crohn's & Colitis Foundation's IBD Partners cohort, we performed several cross-sectional and longitudinal analyses to create a new PRO-based evaluation (PROBE) of QoL among patients with Crohn's disease (CD) and ulcerative colitis (UC). We used factor analysis and Pearson correlation testing to identify candidate questions for inclusion, Wilcoxon rank sum testing to examine responsiveness of the PROBE to changes in disease activity, and test-retest reliability assessments in patients with stable disease activity. We also compared the PROBE to the Short Inflammatory Bowel Disease Questionnaire to assess construct validity. Results: A total of 4,854 patients (64% CD, 36% UC) completed surveys with 6 items included in the final PROBE. Compared to baseline, there was a significant decrease in PROBE scores at follow-up among patients who experienced a flare for UC (25.0 vs. 22.2, p=0.001) and CD (23.1

“…Three studies examined participants with ulcerative colitis (Maunder, Greenberg, Lancee, Steinhart, & Silverberg, 2007;Moss et al, 2010;Tanaka & Kazuma, 2005), one study compared Crohn's disease to a control group (Vallis & Leddin, 2004), three studies examined both types of IBD (Rini, Jandorf, Valdimarsdottir, Brown, & Itzkowitz, 2008;Sewitch et al, 2001;Slonim-Nevo et al, 2018), and one study compared IBD to rheumatoid arthritis (Miehsler et al, 2008). The mean age of participants was 40 years (n = 7).…”

“…Of the studies reporting mean time since diagnosis (n = 6), participants were diagnosed for an average of 9.3 years (Miehsler et al, 2008;Moss et al, 2010;Rini et al, 2008;Sewitch et al, 2001;Tanaka & Kazuma, 2005). Five studies reported on the patient's disease status, such as active or inactive disease, each using a different metric (Maunder et al, 2007;Moss et al, 2010;Sewitch et al, 2001;Slonim-Nevo et al, 2018;Tanaka & Kazuma, 2005). Four studies reported on treatment methods, with two studies reporting medication use (Tanaka & Kazuma, 2005;Slonim-Nevo et al, 2018), one study focusing solely on mesalamine medication use (Moss et al, 2010), and one study reporting on partial and complete colon removal (Rini et al, 2008).…”

Purpose The purpose was to determine the relationship between social support, psychological symptoms and self‐management behaviors among adults with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) and examine the influence of types of social support and patient age. Design This was a systematic review. PubMed, Web of Science, Cumulative Index to Nursing and Allied Health Literature (CINAHL), PsycINFO, Communication and Mass Media Complete, and Communication Abstracts were searched. Publication dates were limited to January 2000 to August 2018. Methods The systematic review was guided by the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta‐Analysis statement, and quality was appraised based on the Critical Appraisal Skills Programme for cohort studies tool. The data were synthesized using narrative synthesis techniques. Findings The literature review yielded 458 results. Eight articles met inclusion criteria. Articles utilized a variety of conceptualizations of both social support and self‐management behaviors, making comparisons difficult. Findings demonstrated an inverse relationship between social support and psychological symptoms, and in one study only when social support buffered high stress. Studies with significant relationships between age and self‐management behaviors indicated that a lower age was associated with decreased self‐management behaviors. Conclusions Social support has the potential to influence psychological symptoms among patients with IBD. Future research should examine types of social support (i.e., emotional, informational, and tangible support) and measure levels of received social support. Clinical Relevance Social support may serve as a modifiable factor to improve psychological symptoms among adults with IBD. Younger adults (age <40 years) may benefit from specialized interventions to address self‐management behaviors.
