The main objective of this study was to build a model, which includes personal and social factors, that helps to highlight factors that promote health-related quality of Life (HRQoL) in children and in adolescents. A sample of 3195 children and adolescents was acquired from 5th and 7th graders from all five Portuguese regions. In this study three independent latent variables were specified – Physical, Psychological and Social and two dependent latent variables were measured: Health behavior and Quality of Life. The integrative model was composed by different components: (1) health-related quality of life, integrated by 8 dimensions from KIDSCREEN-52; (2) health behavior, (3) variables related to physical health; (4) variables related to social health; (5) variables related to psychological health. As results were found strong correlation between psychological dimensions and self-esteem and other factors and a structural equation model was developed. The model presented a RMSEA index of .08. Similarly, adjustment levels for the CFI, NFI and IFI vary above or around .90, which suggests a good adjustment for the hypothesized model. The model presented significant qui-square.This study showed that in all the samples studied, the psychological variables were those that contributed at a superior level to HRQoL.

Abstract Objectives To test whether Guided Self-Determination (GSD) used in chronic pain management could improve the health-related quality of life, patient activation and sense of coherence (SoC) as a measurement of life skills in patients with chronic pain. The method has been shown to be effective in other chronic conditions, but has not been tested in chronic pain. Methods A three-site randomised, controlled trial at three major multidisciplinary pain centres in Denmark. 200 patients were included and randomised. In the intervention period, both groups had regular visits to the pain centre with both doctors and nurses. The intervention group additionally received the GSD intervention with weekly sessions for eight weeks. Data were collected from February 2013 to July 2016 and consisted of three questionnaires answered before and after the 8-week intervention period, and after six months. The primary outcome was self-reported health related quality of life. Secondary outcomes included self-reported activation and SoC. Results We found no clinically relevant difference between the groups for health-related quality of life, patient activation or SoC at either baseline, at three months or at six months. We also analysed data for trends over time using mixed model analysis, and this did not show any significant differences between groups. Conclusions GSD did not improve health-related quality of life, patient activation or SoC when administered to patients with chronic pain treated in a multidisciplinary pain centre. New research is recommended using a combination of self-reported and objective measures and longer follow-up.

Management Of Care

The purpose of this paper is to present a conceptual-theoretical-empirical model addressing variables associated with self-management of care and adherence to treatment and its relationship to health-related quality of life for adolescents with congenital heart disease. There is limited research on adolescents with congenital heart disease regarding the relationship between autonomy, relatedness, competence, self-management of care and adherence to treatment, and health-related quality of life. The proposed Health-Related Quality of Life and Transition of Adolescents With Congenital Heart Disease to Self-Manage in Adulthood model, adapted from the Self-Determination Theory, will help to better understand these relationships.
