Title. Effects of a self‐management arthritis programme with an added exercise component for osteoarthritic knee: randomized controlled trial. Aim. This paper is a report of a study to assess the effect of an adapted arthritis self‐management programme with an added focus on exercise practice among osteoarthritic knee sufferers. Background. Osteoarthritis of the knee is a major source of loss of function in older people. Previous studies have found self‐management programmes to be effective in increasing arthritis self‐efficacy and in mastery of self‐management practice. Method. A randomized control trial was carried out from December 2002 to May 2003 and 120 participants (65·9%, including 67 in intervention group and 53 in control group) completed the 16‐week postintervention assessments. Outcome measures included arthritis self‐efficacy, use of self‐management techniques, pain intensity and daily activity. Findings. At 16 weeks, there was a ‘statistically’ significant improvement in the arthritis self‐efficacy level (P ≤ 0·001), in most of the self‐management skills, i.e. use of cold and hot compresses, in two of three joint protective practices (P ≤ 0·001; P = 0·01), an increase in the duration of light exercise practice (P ≤ 0·001), reduction of current arthritis pain (P ≤ 0·001) and in the ability to perform daily activities (P ≤ 0·001) among the intervention group but not for the control group (P‐range from 0·04 to 0·95). One joint protective practice showed a statistically significant increase in both groups (P ≤ 0·001). Conclusion. Our findings add to evidence showing short‐term beneficial effects of self‐efficacy theory in education programmes. Self‐efficacy theory has great potential for empowering sufferers of chronic conditions to live with their illness.

“…30 , 31 Our observation that older age, presence of comorbid chronic conditions, and poor self-rated health are associated subsequent ADL deterioration is in agreement with previous research. 3 , 15 , 28 , 31 – 38 Moreover, our data indicate that these 3 factors and their timing have different epidemiologic roles in the risk of arthritis. As noted above, we found that older age, presence of comorbid chronic conditions, and poor self-rated health were the only predictors of ADL disability at baseline.…”

“…33 Studies have also shown that arthritis patient education programs can be useful for enhancing self-care management techniques and improving physical and psychological health outcomes. 37 , 38 Furthermore, it has been reported that becoming widowed and the duration of widowhood are important determinants for the onset of late-life disability in different disability domains. 39 , 40 Previous study results have also highlighted the importance of focusing not only on the short-term effects of socioeconomic factors, but also on the possibility of long-term effects on disability in older adults.…”

BackgroundTo investigate changes over time in risk factors for the development of Activities of Daily Living (ADL) disabilities in older adults with arthritis.MethodsThe data were obtained from the Longitudinal Survey of Health and Living Status of the Elderly in Taiwan (1989–1999). The major analytic cohort comprised 977 older adults (458 men and 519 women) with arthritis and without ADL limitation at study baseline. A generalized estimating equations (GEE) model was used to analyze all temporally correlated errors, population-averaged estimates, and longitudinal relationships.ResultsOverall, the cumulative incidence of ADL disability in the analytic cohort was 17.4% during an observation period of 11 years. With respect to baseline risk, ADL disability was associated with older age, presence of comorbid chronic conditions, and poor self-rated health. However, the findings changed after accounting for the time-varying nature of risk factors and the temporal sequence of possible cause-and-effect relationships. In addition to the baseline predictors, a high score on the Center for Epidemiologic Studies Depression Scale, lack of regular exercise, and becoming widowed were associated with an increased risk of ADL disability and a decreased chance of recovery.ConclusionsAn understanding of the time-varying nature of risk factors for the disabling process is essential for the development of effective interventions that aim to maintain functional ability and prevent limitations among older adults with arthritis.
