description | Background: Training sessions are the most common framework used to provide self-management for patients with multiple sclerosis Objective: This study was conducted to determine the effect of life skills training on the self-management of patients with multiple sclerosis. Findings showed that life skills training had a significant effect on the overall self-management score; thus, self-management of patients increased after training life skills (F = 25.1821, P <0.01). Materials and Methods: This semi-experimental study was conducted on 80 subjects with MS in the MS Society in Tehran (Iran) in 2016. The experimental group received four one-hour sessions of life skills training. The control group received routine care. Patients of both groups filled MS self-management (MSSM) scales at baseline and a month after the last training session. Independent t-test was used to compare findings between the two groups; pairwise t-test was used to compare results before and after the test. Covariance test was used to present the research results and data was analyzed by using SPSS21. Findings: Mean and standard deviation of age were 32.22±8.88 and 33.02±10.34 in the control and experimental groups, respectively. Results: Comparison of total self-management showed a significant difference between the control and experimental groups after receiving life skill training (P<0.01). Moreover, there was a significant difference in the mean of total self-management in the experimental group before and after the intervention; self-management increased after intervention (p-value<0.001). Conclusion: This study showed the positive effect of life skills training because its main goal is to prepare and help patients solve problems and deal with difficulties resulting from the disease. Therefore, life skill training is suggested for patients suffering from MS. |
