Effect of motivational interview-based self management programme on self-efficacy in individual with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease: a randomized controlled trial

To decisive the effect of a motivational interview-based self-management programme on the perception of dyspnea and self-efficacy in individual with Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD). Our randomised controlled study was conducted in a chest diseases hospital between March and June 2018. A total of 100 COPD inpatients were screened. After 80 were randomised, a total of 78 individual were included in the study (intervention group, n = 39; control group, n = 39). The intervention was developed based on the motivational interview-based self-management programme and consisted of one face-to-face group training session, followed by three individual motivational interview sessions. Data were assessed by analysis of variance for the multiple repeated measurements, and t-test in independent groups. After the motivational interview-based self-management programme and follow-up, a statistically significant distinction was observed in the self-efficacy levels of the two groups (p < 0.05). It was determined that the mean self-efficacy scores of the patients in the intervention group were higher than those of the control group. The motivational interview-based self-management programme was effective in increasing self-efficacy in individual with COPD compared to usual nursing care. Nurses can provide appropriate training and counseling by integrating motivational interviewing into the self-management program in clinical practice.
