“…We found great receptivity for this approach by clients themselves and by mental healthcare providers and administrators (Mesidor et al 2011) and modest evidence of its effect on perceived health status and functioning. These findings are similar to a small randomized study testing a lifestyle intervention program (Forsberg et al 2010).…”

“…Recently, interventions have been developed to address the physical health status of individuals with mental illness, some with a focus on increasing care integration, access to services, or the use of education to promote health awareness, self-care, and weight loss (Brown et al 2011;Daumit et al 2002;Dobscha and Ganzini 2001;Druss et al 2010b;Felker et al 1998;Forsberg et al 2010;Lindenmayer et al 2009). At the time this study was conducted, no research had tested the effectiveness of adding a nurse practitioner to improve health outcomes.…”

We conducted a randomized trial to examine a model for integrating primary care into a community mental health setting. Two hundred individuals were recruited and randomly assigned to receive primary care delivered by a nurse practitioner (n = 94) or services-as-usual (n = 106), assessed on health and mental health outcomes, and followed for 12 months. Intent-to-Treat and exposure analyses were conducted and suggest that participants who engaged with the nurse practitioner experienced gains in perceptions of primary care quality. Health benefits accrued for individuals having receiving nurse practitioner services in a mental health setting to address primary care needs.

“…Health care professionals might be able to use information on patients' SOC to improve their HRQoL by concentrating on changing one or more of the three components of the SOC: comprehension, manageability and meaningfulness, not only during the hospitalisation but also during further recovery at home [18]. Furthermore, a significant increase in SOC could be gained by talk-therapy groups [52], social exchanges [53], mindfulness-based stress reduction programmes [54] and individualised psychoeducational programmes based on dialogue [55]. This could increase the self-care of patients with CHD and thus prevent the risk of recurrences.…”

Sense of coherence as an independent predictor of health-related quality of life among coronary heart disease patients Silarova, Barbora; Nagyova, Iveta; Rosenberger, Jaroslav; Studencan, Martin; Ondusova, Daniela; Reijneveld, Sijmen A.; van Dijk, Jitse P.

Abstract Purpose The aim of this study was to determine whether sense of coherence (SOC) at baseline predicts health-related quality of life (HRQoL) at 12-28-month follow-up among patients with coronary heart disease when controlled for sociodemographic and medical variables. Methods A total of 179 consecutive patients (58.28 ± 6.52 years, 16.8% women) scheduled for coronary angiography (CAG) were interviewed before CAG and 12-28 months after. SOC was measured with the 13-item Orientation to Life Questionnaire. HRQoL was measured using the Short Form Health Survey 36 (SF-36), from which the mental and physical component summaries (MCS, PCS) were calculated. The relationship between SOC and HRQoL was examined using regression analyses.Results SOC proved to be a significant predictor of the MCS-score (B = 0.29; 95% CI = 0.17-0.41) and PCSscore (B = 0.18; 95% CI = 0.06-0.31) when not adjusted for possible confounding sociodemographic and medical variables. After adjustment for sociodemographic and medical variables, SOC remained a predictor of the MCSscore (B = 0.26; 95% CI = 0.14-0.39). SOC also remained a predictor of the PCS-score when controlled for gender, age and family income; however, the association disappeared after adjustment for functional status (B = 0.07; 95% CI = -0.05 to 0.19). Conclusions SOC is a predictor of mental and physical HRQoL at 12-28-month follow-up, crude and also after adjustment. Patients undergoing CAG with low SOC thus deserve particular attention in regard to the maintenance and improvement of their HRQoL.

“…The SOC-13 has shown good acceptability among older people,44 has been used in several NH studies,26,45 and has shown high internal consistency in a review of 127 studies (Cronbach’s alpha ranges from 0.70 to 0.9244). The SOC-13 is a seven-point rating scale with two anchor responses: “never” and “very often”.…”

BackgroundLimited information exists regarding the natural development of health-related quality of life (HRQOL) and its determinants among mentally intact nursing home (NH) residents. We aimed to examine HRQOL over time during a 6-year period among residents of NHs, who are not cognitively impaired, and to examine whether sense of coherence and a diagnosis of cancer influence HRQOL.MethodsThe study was prospective and included baseline assessment and 6-year follow-up. After baseline assessment of 227 cognitively intact NH residents (Clinical Dementia Rating score ≤ 0.5), we interviewed 52 living respondents a second time at the 5-year follow-up and 18 respondents a third time at the 6-year follow-up. We recorded data from the interviews using the Short Form-36 (SF-36) Health Survey and the Sense of Coherence Scale. To study different developments over time for residents without and with cancer, we tested interactions between cancer and time.ResultsThe subscores of physical functioning and role limitation–physical domains declined with time (P < 0.001 and P = 0.02, respectively). Having a diagnosis of cancer at baseline was negatively correlated with general health (P = 0.002). Sense of coherence at baseline was positively correlated with all the SF-36 subscores from baseline to follow-up (P < 0.001).ConclusionThe study indicates that the HRQOL changed over time during the 6 years of follow-up, and the sense of coherence appeared to be an important component of the HRQOL. Finally, our results showed that having a diagnosis of cancer was associated with decline in the general health subdimension.
