Literature Review

National Quality Center (NQC)
Patient self-management is…
“The capability of patients with chronic illnesses, in a
complementary partnership with their health care
providers, to manage the symptoms, treatment,
lifestyle behavior changes, and the many physical and
psycho-social challenges that they face each day.”
A composite of definitions in the literature

The Problem
• Patients often have difficulty in taking care of the longterm, day-to-day management of their own health. They
may:
Miss appointments or follow-up referrals
Not follow diet or activity recommendations
Take medications or supplements that interfere with
prescribed therapies
Ignore or not recognize signs of adverse events or disease
progression
Behave in ways that put themselves at risk including not
adhering with prescribed medical therapies
• Clinicians have limited time to address these issues

Growing Support for Patient Self-Management
“Increasing evidence shows that self-management support
reduces hospitalizations, emergency department use, and
overall managed care costs.”
“Physician support of patient self-management is one of the
key elements of a system’s-oriented chronic care model.”
Coleman and Newton. Supporting self-management in patients
with chronic illness. Am Fam Physician 2005;72(8):1503-10

National Quality Center (NQC)
Patient self-management is used
effectively in many chronic illnesses and
is an essential component of the Chronic
Care Model (CCM)
Asthma
Studies of asthma patient self management programs show that they
can…
reduce morbidity
improve lung function
enhance feelings of self control
reduce absenteeism from school and number of days with restricted
activity
reduce nocturnal episodes
reduce visits to an emergency department

Arthritis
• In multiple randomized trials, the Arthritis Patient Self-management
Program has been found to improve
health behaviors
self-efficacy
health status
cost savings1,2
• Patient self-management of arthritis reduced anxiety and depression
and improved participants’ perceived self-efficacy to manage
symptoms.3

Diabetes
Most well-studied disease category
Group visits and individualized problem- solving are
effective self-management tools resulting in
• Improved recommended prevention behaviors
• Improved health status (SF-36)
• Fewer specialty and ED visits
• Enhanced patient satisfaction and self-efficacy
• Improved HbA1c levels

Systematic Review of 39 Diabetes Studies
Using at least one component of the CCM
• 17 of 20 studies that included a patient selfmanagement component found positive
outcomes
↓ health care costs
↓ length of hospital stay
↑ health outcomes (e.g., improved HbA1c)

The body of evidence shows that
supporting patient self-management…
reduces hospitalizations
reduces ER visits
reduces overall managed care costs
increases patient satisfaction with care
improves health outcomes (e.g.,)
• Glycemic control
• Nocturnal asthma symptoms
• Blood pressure control
Coleman and Newton, Am Fam Physician, 2005

Few Self-Management Studies
with HIV Patients
• No strong evidence yet of efficacy
• Only pilot studies have been done
• Increase in self efficacy correlated with increase
in CD4 count and decrease in viral load*
• More studies needed of in-office interventions
and system supports

diverse women living with AIDS: the SMART/EST Women’s Project. AIDS Care 17:222-36

Stanford HIV S-M Education Pilot Study
• Pilot test of a group self-management course for HIV/AIDS patients
↓ symptom severity index in the education session group and ↓
in the control group.
↑ self-efficacy in the educational group and ↓ in the control
group.
secondary outcomes (pain fatigue, psychosocial symptoms,
changes in stress/relaxation exercises, and HIV/AIDS
knowledge were not significantly different in the two groups.
• No follow-up of this pilot study reported to date.

Limitations of Patient
Self-Management Education
In a meta-analysis of 71 trials of self-management education across
several chronic disease states the authors concluded that…
• While self-management education programs are conceptually
appealing, the findings of this review suggest that not all selfmanagement education programs for all diseases or for all patients
are effective.
Patient self-management programs which tailor educational content
and methodology to individual patients and which are integrated into
medical care may prove to be more effective than structured selfmanagement education courses, for which only specific patient
subgroups may be ready.

Chronic Disease. Arch Inter Med. 2004;164:1641-1649.

Patient health outcomes
Patient health-promoting behaviors
Patient self-efficacy
Communication with providers
Utilization of community resources
Containment of health care costs
The quality and efficacy of HIV care

Harlem Hospital
• Our team was part of a one-year national learning
community sponsored by the Institute for
Healthcare Improvement on patient selfmanagement (included 20 sites, 2 other HIV)
• The Family-Centered Care Program (FCP) was
our target population
• Participated in extended follow-up project to
measure sustainability of change
22
National Quality Center (NQC)
Population of Focus
• 25% of FCP patients are
recent immigrants from West
Africa
• The remaining 75% of FCP
patients are predominantly
African-American or Hispanic
• Many face legal, linguistic and
cultural barriers to care
• The self-management model is
well-suited to assist these
patients in overcoming barriers
and achieving better health
outcomes
23
National Quality Center (NQC)
Introducing Self-Management
• Developed a goal setting tool to set a patientdriven healthcare goal and develop an action
plan during the clinic visit
• Developed a model to accomplish this within
the time constraints of the clinic setting

My Action Plan for Better Health
Harlem Family Center
This month I will:
Improve my food
Choices
Describe it: (How, where, what, when, how
often)
Reduce my stress
Take my meds everyday
Attend a support group
Exercise more often
Follow up with a medical
appointment
(go to the dentist)
Cut down or stop
smoking (or drinking or
drug use)
Other:
Barriers (what might get in the way):
Plans to over come barriers (what could you do
to handle the barriers?):
On a scale of 1 – 10: How important is this goal:
________
(1 = Not important at all, 5 = somewhat important, 10
= the most important)
On a scale of 1 – 10: How sure am I that I can
make this goal: ______
(1 = Not sure at all, 5 = somewhat sure,
10 = 100% sure)

Cycle 3: Team approach implemented in Mom/Baby
Clinic. Case manager plays role in supporting plan
Cycle 2: RN uses goal-setting tool with patients prior to provider
Visit at one clinic session. Provider reinforces goals/plan
Cycle 1: Providers use goal-setting tools with patients

Team Approach
• Piloted in Mom-Baby Clinic
Later expanded to several providers in ID Clinic

27
Nurse sets goal with pt during triage
Provider reviewed goals with pt during visit
Case manager available to reinforce goals
Goal and action plan filed in patients’ chart
National Quality Center (NQC)
Goal-setting was Patient-Driven
• Easier than expected to generate goals from
patients
• Encouraged the patient to identify the goal
themselves, come with action plan, identify
barriers, come up with solution that worked
for them
• Skills included: asking opening ended
questions, reflective listening, summarizing
28
National Quality Center (NQC)
Impact of Goal-Setting
• Can solve impasse around behavior change
• Gives providers deeper understanding of the
patient
• Improves relationship between patient-nurse
and patient-provider
• Empowers pt to make needed behavior
changes, or at least think about them if they
are not ready

visits, and chaotic life circumstances. Active ACS case:
all three kids in mandated foster care
Goal: Stop marijuana use to get children back, “must
have clean urines”
Barriers: friends, depression, lack of activities
Plans to overcome barriers: attend parenting classes,
attend drug support group, take meds for depression
