Abstract
This quasi-experimental research examined the effects of self-efficacy promotion program on health behaviors, HbA1C level, and glomerular filtration rate of diabetic patients with chronic kidney disease. The study’s sample consisted of 60 patients with type 2 diabetes with chronic kidney disease from Chumtabong Hospital, Nakhonsawan Province. The participants were simple random sampling to either the experimental group (n=30) or the control group (n=30) based on the inclusion criteria. The experimental group received a Self-Efficacy Promotion Program based on Bandura’s Self-efficacy theory (Bandura, 1997) which included four components. The program was administered over 12 weeks. Data collection instruments included health behavior questionnaires and measures of HbA1C levels and glomerular filtration rates. The questionnaire's content validity was reviewed by five experts, and its reliability was confirmed with a Cronbach's alpha of 0.78. Data were analyzed using frequency, percentage, mean, standard deviation, paired t-tests, and independent t-tests. The results indicated the following: Experimental group after receiving the self-efficacy promotion program Health Behavior Average Score Accumulated sugar levels in the blood and glomerular filtration rate Different from before the experiment and the control group (p<.05). The study’s findings suggest that the Self-Efficacy Promotion Program may effectively improve health behaviors, reduce A1C levels, and increase glomerular filtration rates in type 2 diabetic patients with chronic kidney disease. The program may serve as a valuable tool for professional nurses and other healthcare providers in patient care.
