“…These findings are consistent with other studies that revealed the social and family support is a determinant variable and could be important to successful self-management behavior of chronic illnesses (19,(37)(38)(39).…”

“…No previous study has investigated the self-management behaviors and its related factors in TB patients. The previous study used a correlation method between TB self-care and related factors and revealed factors, including gender, marital status, family structure, family support, income, and knowledge affect self-care of TB patients (19,31) In this study, there was significant direct and indirect relationship between knowledge and selfmanagement so that, as the individual's knowledge increases, his level of self-management also enhances which is consistent with other studies in chronic disease self-management (24,32). The DOTS Strategy that is done in health centers has been considered as a basic and effective factor in developing countries for better treatment and adherence of aTB control program (8).…”

“…To investigate this matter, we studied different studies. A study has shown a correlation between self-care of TB patients and socio-demographic factors, including gender, marital status, family structure, family support, income (19). Several studies have investigated factors affecting the self-management in patients with chronic disease and revealed the impacts of socio-demographic (age, education, job, income) knowledge, attitude, the presence of support from family and community, social relations and the ability to deal with stress and stigma on self management (20)(21)(22)(23)(24).…”

Background Tuberculosis is a chronic infectious disease that, if not treated and managed properly, increases the Multi Drug Resistance (MDR). Self-management behaviors can reduce the progression of illness. Although various factors affect self-management, no study has not been conducted on the self-management tuberculosis through path analysis. This study evaluated the factors affecting self-management in tuberculosis patients using path analysis. Methods This study was a cross-sectional study and was done on 133 non prisoner tuberculosis (TB) patients that referred to all health centers in Karaj, Iran from March 2016 to February 2017.The structured questionnaire was applied. Data were analyzed with SPSS-17 and Lisrel 8.8, utilizing statistical path analysis to evaluate the relationships between self-management and its related factors. Results 52.3% of the participants in the study were female and 47.7% were male. Respondents of this research were 46.9% smear-positive, 9.4% smear- negative, 43.8% extra-pulmonary TB. Fit indices confirmed the model fitness and logical relationships between the variables according to the conceptual model (X2=49.80, df=25). The final path model showed that the age (B=0.84), attitude (B=0.10), marital status (B=0.04) and house condition (B=0.03) impact self-management just through direct path. Knowledge (B=0.83) and education (0.16) affect the self-management through both direct and indirect paths. The education indirectly affects the self-management through both knowledge and attitude. knowledge indirectly impact self-management through attitude. In other words knowledge and attitude mediate the relationship between some factors and self-management. Conclusions This study provided an empirical model that illustrates the relationships between self-management and related factors in TB Patients. The most important factor that affects self-management through both direct and indirect paths was knowledge. The knowledge can be the target of interventions in support of self-management

“…We measured treatment adherence with the 18‐item Treatment Compliance Scale (TCS) (α = 0.92) developed for use in Korean TB patients (Cho & Kwon, ; Choi, ). The TCS uses a 5‐point Likert scale (none of the time–all the time) and scores range from 18 to 90 with higher scores reflecting higher treatment adherence (Cronbach's α 0.91, 0.90, and 0.74 at the measurement points in this study).…”

Objective The purpose of this study was to examine health‐related quality of life (HRQoL) in Korean tuberculosis (TB) patients and to identify factors associated with HRQoL. Design A longitudinal study design was employed with a six‐month tracking period. Sample Fifty patients were enrolled from a single TB clinic. Measurements Data on physical and mental HRQoL domains, physical symptoms, self‐esteem, stigma, treatment adherence and social support were collected on the day of TB diagnosis, and then again at 2‐ and 6‐months’ post‐TB diagnosis. Results Mental HRQoL scores did not change over time (p = .500) although changes in the physical HRQoL significantly improved over 6 months (p < .001); these changes were small and not considered clinically meaningful. Worse physical symptoms (p < .001) but better treatment adherence (p = .006) were associated with lower physical HRQoL. Similarly, worse physical symptoms but better self‐esteem (p < .001) and social support (p = .015) were associated with higher mental HRQoL. Conclusions It is important that nurses caring for TB patients understand the physical and mental impact of TB and its treatment.

Background: Self-management behaviors can reduce the progression of an illness. Although various factors affect self-management, no study has been conducted on the self-management of tuberculosis (TB) through path analysis.Objectives: This study evaluated the factors affecting self-management in TB patients using path analysis. Methods: A cross-sectional study was done on 133 non-prisoner TB patients that referred to all health centers in Karaj, Iran, in 2017. A structured questionnaire was applied. Data were analyzed with SPSS-17 and Lisrel 8.8, utilizing statistical path analysis to evaluate the relationships between self-management and its related factors. Results: Overall, 52.3% of the participants in the study were female and 47.7% were male. Respondents of were 46.9% smear-positive, 9.4% smear-negative, and 43.8% extra-pulmonary TB. Fit indices confirmed the model fitness and logical relationships between the variables according to the conceptual model (χ 2 = 49.80, df = 25). The final path model showed that age (β = 0.84), attitude (β = 0.10), marital status (β = 0.04), and house condition (β = 0.03) impact self-management through the direct path. Knowledge (β = 0.83) and education (β = 0.16) affect self-management through both direct and indirect paths. Education indirectly affects self-management through both knowledge and attitude. Knowledge indirectly impacts self-management through attitude. In other words, knowledge and attitude mediate the relationship between some factors and self-management. Conclusions: This study provided an empirical model that illustrates the relationships between self-management and related factors in TB patients. The knowledge can be the target of interventions in support of self-management.
