Self-Efficacy and Self-Management Behaviors in Patients With Chronic Kidney Disease

Self-Management Program for People with Chronic Kidney Disease in Vietnam: A Pragmatic Randomised Controlled Trial

“…In conclusion, previous research has shown that people with higher self-efficacy and adequate kidney knowledge have better self-management of adherence to medication regimens, partnership in health care, open communication, and kidney function compared to those with lower self-efficacy and inadequate kidney knowledge (Curtin et al, 2008;Devraj et al, 2015). Increased CKD self-management skills requires both a better understanding of kidney disease and confidence to manage the disease, which in turn, may prevent further deterioration of kidney function, and also to maintain their overall health and well-being.…”

“…The concept of self-efficacy of SCT and its relationships with self-management behaviours in people with CKD has also been reported in eight descriptive studies (Balaga, 2012;Boothby & Salmon, 2013;Clarke et al, 2015;Curtin et al, 2008;Patterson et al, 2014;Tsay & Healstead, 2002;Wells & Anderson, 2011;Weng et al, 2010). However, seven studies involved people with ESKD receiving dialysis and/or who had a kidney transplant.…”

“…These studies have occurred in Western countries (Boothby & Salmon, 2013;Byrne et al, 2011;Clarke et al, 2015;Curtin et al, 2008;Patterson et al, 2014;Wells & Anderson, 2011;Wierdsma et al, 2011) and in nonWestern countries (Balaga, 2012;Joboshi & Oka, 2016;Kazawa & Moriyama, 2013;Moattari et al, 2012;Tsay & Healstead, 2002;Tsay, 2003;Weng et al, 2010), demonstrating the suitability of the constructs of SCT to differing cultures. These studies indicate the positive relationship between self-efficacy and self-management behaviours.…”

“…In the CKD literature, there have been 14 studies informed by SCT. These studies have been conducted in the U.S. (Curtin et al, 2008;Patterson, Umstattd Meyer, Beaujean, & Bowden, 2014;Wells & Anderson, 2011), Netherlands (Wierdsma et al, 2011), U.K. (Boothby & Salmon, 2013;Byrne et al, 2011;Clarke et al, 2015), Philippines (Balaga, 2012), Japan (Joboshi & Oka, 2016;Kazawa & Moriyama, 2013), Taiwan (Tsay & Healstead, 2002;Tsay, 2003;Weng et al, 2010), andIran (Moattari, Ebrahimi, Sharifi, &Rouzbeh, 2012). Six studies involved an intervention and the remaining studies were descriptive studies.…”

Evaluation of Self Management Behavior of Chronic Kidney Disease Patients

“…There are limited studies that focus on self-management strategies which address the psychological and behavioural complexities inherent in any chronic diseases and it is vital for effective management of CKD, which is a long lasting, frustrating and progressive disease. It has been suggested that progression of disease may be partly delayed with good self management [5,6] and the prevention of renal progression is essential to improve the clinical outcome of CKD patients [7]. Therefore, in order to minimize the negative impact of CKD on the individual and to slow the disease progression, it is important for the patients to engage in effective self-management.…”
