    • Age-related macular degeneration is a serious public health problem, and in most cases no cure exists. One available intervention is low vision rehabilitation, and there is a lack of programmes for the elderly. The purpose of this paper is to present the results of an evaluation of a group-based health education programme. This programme comprised six to eight 2-3 hour meetings, once a week, for persons with age-related macular degeneration. Each group consisted of four to six participants. The goal of the programme, which has its roots in the health belief model, was to sustain and restore the participants' performance of their daily activities. The tool used for process evaluation was focus group methodology, and eight focus groups were involved. Forty five persons, whose average age was 80 years, took part in the evaluation. The results indicated that the participants were, on the whole, pleased with the content of the programme. There were, however, some indications that they did not understand all the information provided. Social support, regained hope and meeting others with the same disease were reported as positive aspects of the health education programme. The importance of the group leader's role in guiding this health education programme was emphasised. Furthermore, with regard to the composition of the groups, the participants pointed out that it was important to consider variation in visual acuity, so as to provide different models for comparison, and whether both sexes should participate in all groups. Finally, several suggestions for improving the programme are put forward.

  • Questionnaire to evaluate the effects of assistive devices and altered working methods in women with rheumatoid arthritis.
  • 1998
  • Ingår i: Clinical rheumatology. - 0770-3198. ; 17:1, s. 6-16
  • Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
    • The objectives of the study were to identify perceived difficulty and reduction of difficulty when using assistive devices and altered working methods in performing daily activities and to detect which activities were unaffected by interventions. Twenty-one women aged 29-65 years with rheumatoid arthritis answered the Evaluation of Daily Activity Questionnaire (EDAQ), which contains 102 items divided into 11 dimensions of daily activities. The women rated their perceived difficulty twice: first when not using devices or altered methods and then when using them. The use of devices or altered methods led to a reduction in perceived difficulty in 42% of the ratings. The number of items that the women found difficult when not using devices/altered methods ranged between 13 and 99. With the interventions, the number of items still found difficult decreased to between 6 and 57, 91% of the devices provided were still in use. The dimensions Eating, Cooking and Toileting contained the most items affected by the use of devices such as lever taps, springy scissors, breadknife and wrist orthosis. Few effective devices were identified for the dimensions Dressing, Washing, Cleaning and Mobility Outdoors. It was concluded that the EDAQ represents a new approach to demonstrating difficulties in performing various daily activities, to describing the effects of assistive devices/altered methods, and to identifying areas not affected by interventions.
