“…In this study, the higher the age and the lower the income, the higher the SASCC score. Nevertheless, previous studies conducted in socioeconomic contexts that differed from the one in this study showed that younger ages and higher incomes were associated with higher scores in self-care agency assessment (1)(2)8,19) . A study conducted in Turkey among individuals with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease pointed to an association between higher ages and lower purchasing power and worse self-care agency (1) .…”

“…Therefore, there might be a relation between the self-care agency maintenance and development, an ability that is learned throughout life, with the subsequent demands of the health-illness process (1)(2)17,19) . In this scenario, it is worth underscoring the Self-care Deficit Nursing Theory for fostering maintenance and development of self-care practices, enhancing quality of life.…”

“…The incidence of noncommunicable diseases (NCD), along with an aging population, has caused an increase in demand for specialized services such as coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) (1)(2)(3) , which dispense with the work by nurses in healthcare education of individuals who will be submitted to this procedure.…”

“…According to Dorothea Orem, these factors are called BCF (3,5,7) . Thus, one understands that individuals' knowledge about SCA, HRQoL, and BCF during the CABG preoperative period is important and can support nurses' actions both in terms of healthcare education and in clinical practice (1)(2)5,8) . However, studies that gather these three factors when it comes to health care are scarce.…”

Self-care agency and quality of life in the preoperative period of coronary artery bypass graft surgery * Extracted from the dissertation "Capacidade de autocuidado e qualidade de vida em indivíduos no pré-operatório de revascularização miocárdica", Universidade Federal de Pernambuco, 2013. To analyze basic self-care conditioning factors and quality of life associated with health, relating them to self-care capacity among individuals in the preoperative period of coronary artery bypass graft surgery. Method: Descriptive study with a quantitative approach, theoretically and methodologically anchored in the Self-care Deficit Nursing Theory. Data were collected between March and August 2013, using the Self-care Assessment Scale and the Medical Outcomes 36 Item Short Form Health Survey. Results: There was a correlation between self-care capacity and quality of life in the preoperative period of coronary artery bypass graft surgery. Conclusion: Among participants of this study, a reduction in quality of life may have occurred due to the presence of noncommunicable diseases; nevertheless, individuals sought the best ways to care for themselves. descriPtOrs Myocardial Revascularization; Self-Care; Quality of Life; Preoperative Care; Nursing Theory.

“…Currently, there are two main ways to measure EQ: trait EQ, which measures self-perception of emotional factors; and ability EQ, which measures more cognitively based EQ through maximal performance tests (14). Investigating trait EQ is especially pertinent in this population because of the strong relationship between emotional factors and COPD-related well-being and self-management abilities (15)(16)(17)(18)(19). Importantly, EQ is a trainable skill that has been used extensively in corporate business (20) to improve well-being and performance.…”

Emotional Intelligence: A Novel Outcome Associated with Wellbeing and Self-Management in Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease

et al. 2016

Rationale: Individuals with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) often struggle with diminished autonomy and quality of life. Emotional factors play a crucial role in the well-being of patients with COPD; they are independently associated with critical outcomes such as dyspnea, quality of life, and health care use. Emotional intelligence is the capacity to understand and manage personal thoughts and feelings, as well as to positively influence interpersonal communication and social well-being. Emotional intelligence is a trainable skill that is extensively used in corporate business to improve well-being and performance, and it may also be significant in the self-management of emotions in patients with chronic disease. Importantly, research supports the proposition that emotional intelligence may be developed and learned at any time or any age, and training programs have been associated with increased well-being and better emotional regulation in patients with chronic disease. However, to date, no research has been done to investigate its value in patients with COPD.Objectives: We aimed to investigate the association between emotional intelligence and two meaningful outcomes in COPD: quality of life and self-management abilities.Methods: Participants with moderate to severe COPD completed a disease-specific quality of life tool (Chronic Respiratory Questionnaire), the Trait Emotional Intelligence Questionnaire, the Self-Management Abilities Scale, the modified Medical Research Council Dyspnea Scale, and pulmonary function tests, and also provided information about living conditions and self-reported health care use. Measurements and Main Results:A total of 310 patients with COPD (mean age, 69 6 9 yr; 40% female; mean FEV 1 %, 42.4 6 15.8) participated in the study. Emotional intelligence was significantly and independently associated with self-management abilities (P , 0.0001) and all domains of quality of life assessed (dyspnea, fatigue, emotions, and mastery; P , 0.0001) after adjusting for age, degree of bronchial obstruction, breathlessness, and other significant confounders.Conclusions: Emotional intelligence may represent an important attribute in COPD, as it is associated with self-management abilities and all domains of quality of life, regardless of age or disease severity. Emotional intelligence can be learned and may complement existing rehabilitation efforts. Attention to it may address the current gap that exists in the treatment of emotional components of COPD responsible for decreased quality of life and increased health care use.Keywords: chronic obstructive pulmonary disease; emotional intelligence; emotions; quality of life; self-management Author Contributions: R.P.B.: contributed to the conception and design of the work as well as the analysis and interpretation of data; J.L.K.: contributed to the analysis and interpretation of the data; and M.M.D. and B.A.-B.: contributed to the design of the study.
