Abstract

Background And Aim: Stroke patients face various challenges that affect their self-efficacy. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effect of a self-management program on the self-efficacy of patients with Stroke.

Methods And Materials: This study is a clinical trial, in which 72 patients with stroke participated in this study. They were selected based on the convenience sampling method and assigned to either intervention or control group (36 patients in each group) randomly. The intervention group received 5A based self-management program for 6 weeks (in-person and off-site) and the control group received only routine care includes stroke training booklets and post-discharge care training by the ward nurse. Data were collected through demographic and jones self-efficacy questionnaires, before, immediately after, and 3 months after interventions in both groups and were analyzed with descriptive and analytical statistics using SPSS software (with independent t-test, Chi-square, Fisher and analysis of variance with repeated measures with a significance level of 0.05).

Results: Before interventions, the two study groups had no statistically significant difference regarding demographic variables and the mean score of self-efficacy. Immediately and 3 months after interventions, the mean score and mean changes of self-efficacy score in the intervention group were significantly greater than in the control group(p < 0.001).

Conclusion: The results of the present study show the appropriate effect of self-management program on self-efficacy of stroke patients. These results can be used by different members of healthcare teams to improve patients' self-efficacy.

Trial Registration: This study is registered by Iranian Registry of Clinical Trials with decree code: IRCT20190712044181N2 (registration date: 05-11-2019).
