Self-Efficacy For Quality of Life For Ischemic Heart Disease Patients: A Systematic Review

Abstract

Self-Efficacy is a variable that can influence Quality of Life (QoL). Individuals with high self-efficacy will be self-motivated and confident in their ability to engage in healthy lifestyle habits that lower potential risks for ischemic heart disease. This systematic review proposed to assess the research results on how self-efficacy impacts patients' ischemic heart disease (IHD) quality of life. This Systematic Review was conducted on seven articles found in databases online from PubMed, ScienceDirect, Proquest, Scopus, Crossref, Springer, and Google Scholar. Good self-efficacy shows better healthy behavior when compared to respondents with low self-efficacy. Patients with high self-efficacy will adopt healthy behavior patterns, and their quality of life will also be satisfactory. Self-efficacy preservation increases the quality of life of heart disease patients, especially those with conditions that require lengthy therapy, such as ischemic heart disease. The findings contribute to a thorough understanding of the influences of selfefficacy and have implications for enhancing elderly cardiac patients' quality of life.

High self-efficacy can help motivate individuals to achieve more in their lives.…”
