The Effect of the Self-Management Program on Functional Ability of Patients with Lumbars Spine Surgery in Rehabilitation
Main Article Content
Abstract
The purpose of this quasi-experimental research was to study the effect of a self-management program on the functional ability of lumbar spine surgery in rehabilitation. The self-management theory was used as a conceptual framework. The sample composed of male and female patients aged between 35 - 59 who had been diagnosed by a physician as having degenerative disease of the lumbar spine L1 - S3 including degenerative lumbar spinal stenosis, lumbar disc herniation, lumbar spondylolisthesis and spondylolysis. The patients were recruited from the orthopedic ward and the neurosurgery ward at the Police General Hospital. The experimental and control groups comprised 22 patients in each group. They were then matched by age and pain scale. The control group received conventional care. The experimental group received the self-management program. The research instrument was the self-management program comprised of five sessions over three weeks. The instrument for collecting data was the function ability and self-management assessment tools which were tested for reliability with Cronbach’s alpha coefficient of 0.73 and 0.80. Data were analyzed using frequency, percentage, mean, standard deviation and t-test. The results revealed that functional ability after lumbar spine surgery in patients receiving the self-management program was significantly higher than the control group at level of .05
