27
Q

How can self-efficacy be measured in older adults?

A

Through self-report scales that assess their confidence in managing health behaviors and completing exercises.

28
Q

What is the importance of monitoring self-efficacy in rehabilitation settings?

A

It helps identify which patients are more likely to adhere to home exercise programs and adjust interventions accordingly to improve outcomes.

29
Q

What are the four key pieces for building self-efficacy?

A

Success and mastery, vicarious performance, verbal encouragement, and emotional/psychological state.

30
Q

How does success and mastery contribute to building self-efficacy?

A

By breaking down long-term goals into achievable short-term tasks, allowing individuals to experience success and build confidence step by step.

31
Q

What example illustrates the principle of success and mastery in exercise?

A

An inpatient rehabilitation patient starting with a small set of four steps before progressing to a full flight of stairs.

32
Q

What is vicarious performance?

A

Learning and building confidence through observing others successfully perform a task, such as participating in group exercise or finding a supportive peer.

33
Q

How can modeling help build self-efficacy in patients?

A

Patients can gain confidence by watching someone with similar abilities perform tasks successfully, providing a relatable example of success.

34
Q

What role does verbal encouragement play in enhancing self-efficacy?

A

Verbal encouragement from therapists, teachers, or peers can reinforce positive behavior and motivate individuals to persist in their efforts.

35
Q

What is important to remember about verbal praise?

A

Praise should be valid and focused on actual successes rather than reinforcing incorrect or subpar performance.

36
Q

How does emotional and psychological state impact self-efficacy?

A

Positive attitudes and belief in one’s abilities can enhance self-efficacy, while negative emotions such as anxiety or depression can hinder performance.

37
Q

What is an example of how emotional state can affect therapy sessions?

A

A 78-year-old patient with knee osteoarthritis may struggle to return to therapy after the death of a spouse, impacting her motivation and ability to engage in rehabilitation.

38
Q

Why is it essential to consider a patient’s emotional state when planning interventions?

A

Understanding emotional and psychological factors can help tailor the therapy approach, ensuring it supports the patient’s overall well-being and recovery.

39
Q

How should a therapist approach a patient returning to therapy after a significant emotional event?

A

Focus on building mastery and success with manageable tasks, being sensitive to their emotional state, and gradually increasing the intensity of exercises.

40
Q

What is the significance of short-term goals in building self-efficacy?

A

Short-term goals provide achievable milestones that help individuals build confidence and stay motivated toward their long-term objectives.

41
Q

How can self-efficacy be affected by social support?

A

Encouragement and positive reinforcement from family, friends, or peers can significantly enhance an individual’s belief in their ability to succeed.

42
Q

How can observational learning be implemented in exercise settings?

A

By having experienced individuals demonstrate exercises, allowing less experienced participants to learn techniques and build confidence.

43
Q

What is the relationship between emotional states and self-efficacy in athletic performance?

A

Athletes often emphasize the importance of a positive mindset; as Venus Williams stated, believing in oneself is essential for success in sports and exercise.

44
Q

What are the three key pieces of self-management?

A

Patient and family-centered care, enabling independence with disease process management, and shared decision-making.

45
Q

What is the focus of patient and family-centered care?

A

It emphasizes setting appropriate goals based on the patient’s needs and ensuring long-term benefits from interventions.

46
Q

Why is it important to consider carryover and long-term benefits in physical therapy?

A

Because improving a patient’s range of motion will have little benefit if they do not incorporate that into their daily activities.

47
Q

How can therapists plan for patient transitions in care?

A

By assessing whether a patient will need to move to a skilled nursing facility or can transition directly to outpatient care based on their progress.

48
Q

What does enabling independence in disease management involve?

A

Empowering patients to have control over their disease process, which can include working with other practitioners like social workers or psychologists.

49
Q

How can patient self-management be measured?

A

By assessing their confidence in managing symptoms and tasks related to their health condition, like keeping fatigue or pain from interfering with daily activities.

50
Q

What is shared decision-making in healthcare?

A

A collaborative process where healthcare providers and patients work together to make informed choices about treatment options based on the patient’s preferences and values.

51
Q

Why is informed consent important in shared decision-making?

A

It ensures that patients understand their options and the implications of those options, allowing them to make educated decisions about their care.

52
Q

What did the study by Bozic and colleagues reveal about shared decision-making in osteoarthritis?

A

Patients who received information about surgical options prior to their visit were more likely to make informed decisions about their care compared to those who only received general information.

53
Q

How does self-management empower individuals with chronic conditions?

A

It gives them the confidence to manage their medical, role, and emotional needs related to their condition effectively.

54
Q

What is the role of interactive educational sessions in self-management?

A

They provide systematic support and education tailored to individual patient needs, enhancing their ability to manage their conditions.

55
Q

What additional resources can help facilitate shared decision-making?

A

Decision aids and educational tools, like those from Cincinnati Children’s Hospital, which help families navigate treatment options effectively.

56
Q

How can healthcare practitioners assess self-management skills?

A

By regularly evaluating barriers to management and strengths to reinforce, ensuring ongoing support for the patient.

57
Q

What is an important consideration for educational approaches in self-management?

A

Not all educational methods will work for every patient, so it’s essential to tailor the approach to each individual’s needs and preferences.

58
Q

Why is it vital to focus on emotional and psychological management in chronic disease self-management?

A

A patient’s emotional state can significantly impact their ability to manage their health, so addressing these factors is critical for overall success.
