Abstract:
Chronic condition self-management is promoted internationally as not only a possible solution to the health problems of our increasingly chronically ill and ageing population, but as part of a new wave of consumer-led and volunteer-managed health care initiatives. Consumers are now indicating that they want to be more involved in the management of their lives and their health care options, while, especially in rural and smaller communities in Australia, a shortage of clinicians means that health care is rapidly changing. This emphasis on self-management raises crucial questions about where consumer action and control in health care should end and where clinical and medical intervention might begin. Hence, as in the case of Sisyphus and his rock, the self-management process is a difficult and demanding one that poses major challenges and loads for health system reformers and represents a struggle in which new difficulties are constantly emerging. This paper examines some implications of new self-management approaches to chronic illness from an ideological perspective and highlights key elements that underpin the effort to promote health-related lifestyle change. While peer-led self-management programs may assist certain individuals to live engaged and meaningful lives, the essential social and economic determinants of health and wellbeing mean that these programs are not the answer to our urgent need for major reform in the health care arena. Rather, selfmanagement, from an ideological perspective, represents a minor adjustment to the fabric of our health system.

Abstract:
Background: Osteoarthritis is a disabling joint disease with no known cure that negatively effects life quality among high numbers of aging adults. Aim: To examine the concept of health literacy as a potentially overlooked, but highly salient, disease correlate among this older chronically disabled group. Method: A literature search using the key terms osteoarthritis and health literacy was conducted using the major data bases. Results: Although almost no work has focused on health literacy and osteoarthritis, the concept of health literacy is clearly linked to health status and health outcomes. Varying from marginal to high, health literacy is not always assessed or recognized as being clinically relevant, however, despite a large volume of related literature. Conclusion: Acknowledging the possible role of limited health literacy in the context of osteoarthritis disease progression, and applying carefully tailored directives for overcoming any related health literacy limitations may offer a novel approach for improving the outcomes for older people with this condition.

Abstract:
When it comes to breast health, self-health management methods are crucial for both prevention and recovery. Understanding risk factors for breast cancer, performing self-breast examinations, maintaining a healthy diet, engaging in moderate exercise, prioritizing mental health, seeking genetic counseling, and undergoing genetic testing all contribute to maintaining breast health. Ongoing scientific research continues to advance breast cancer treatment, with personalized therapies, immunotherapy, and early screening techniques shaping the future trends.

Abstract:
Self-management is now positioned as essential to the optimal management of many chronic diseases. Health promoters and service providers often acknowledge that some forms of self-management are difficult and demanding, and that health education must be appropriately tailored in order to enhance ?compliance?. These discourses may recognise that part of a person?s response to diagnosis arises from the individual?s personality and their social circumstances. However, less attention is paid to the social and personal effects of the variety of strategies people deploy in order to manage an ongoing condition. Self-management affects more than symptoms or disease status; it also shapes the subjectivity of the person, so different management strategies may mould different selves. The self-management of diabetes entails numerous daily practices, and produces several distinct ways of constructing an embodied diabetic self. In this article, I describe how a sample of adults living with diabetes type 2 manage their diabetes from day to day, and how those activities both arise from, and contribute to, distinctive subject positions. Appreciating the daily and dynamic character of self-management may also help service providers to facilitate an improved quality of life for people with chronic conditions.

Abstract:
SummaryTo summarize excellent current research in the field of knowledge representation and management (KRM).A synopsis of the articles selected for the IMIA Yearbook 2012 is provided and an attempt to highlight the current trends in the field of health management is sketched.Among the five selected papers, two confirm the benefit of exploiting open-source language toolkits for the automatic extraction of medical concepts, assertions and/or relationships from clinical texts. One paper aims at exploiting domain-specific terminologies to improve the parsing of biomedical noun phrases, and another one aims at discovering rare diseases associations embedded into disparate textual sources. Finally, the last paper describes a collaborative search approach integrated into a homegrown EHR search engine.This selected set of papers confirms that natural language processing, as well as knowledge extraction, discovering and retrieval, are still active and fruitful research fields. Although these papers are not directly focusing on personal health informatics applications„ important features are highlighted and tailored to fit the requirements of patient health self-management. Delivering timely, friendly and secure access to functional, accurate, up-to-date and sustainable personal health records is a significant challenging task for supporting self-managed healthcare.

Abstract:
Background Studies have explored the relationship between social class and health for decades. However, the underlying mechanism between the two remains not fully understood. This study aimed to explore whether health self-management had a mediating role between social class and health under the framework of Socio-cultural Self Model. Methods 663 adults, randomly sampled from six communities in Southwest China, completed the survey for this study. Social class was assessed using individuals’ income, education, occupation. Health self-management was assessed through evaluation of the health self-management behavior, health self-management cognition, health self-management environment. Physical health and mental health were measured by the Chinese version of Short-Form (36-item) Health Survey, which contains Physical Functioning, Role-Physical, Role-Emotional, Vitality, Mental Health, Social Function, Bodily Pain and General Health. Pearson’s correlation was used to examine the associations between major variables. Mediation analyses were performed to explore the mediating role of health self-management. Results Social class positively predicted self-rated health. The lower the social class, the lower the self-reported physical and mental health. Health self-management partially mediated the relationship between social class and self-rated health. That is, the health self-management ability of the lower class, such as access to healthy and nutritious food and evaluate their own health status, is worse than that of the higher class, which leads to physical and mental health inequality between the high and the low classes. Conclusion Health self-management mediated the relationship between social class and health. Promoting health self-management abilities are conducive to improving both physical and mental health.

Abstract:
SummaryBackground: Questions like ‘How is your health? How are you feeling? How have you been?’ now can be answered in a different way due to innovative health self-quantification apps and devices. These apps and devices generate data that enable individuals to be informed and more responsible about their own health.Objectives: The aim of this paper is to review studies on health SQ, firstly, exploring the concepts that are associated with the users’ interaction with and around data for managing health; and secondly, the potential benefits and challenges that are associated with the use of such data to maintain or promote health, as well as their impact on the users’ certainty or confidence in taking effective actions upon such data.Methods: To answer these questions, we conducted a comprehensive literature review to build our study sample. We searched a number of electronic bibliographic databases including Scopus, Web of Science, Medline, and Google Scholar. Thematic analysis was conducted for each study to find all the themes that are related to our research aims.Results: In the reviewed literature, conceptualisation of health SQ is messy and inconsistent. Personal tracking, personal analytics, personal experimentation, and personal health activation are different concepts within the practice of health SQ; thus, a new definition and structure is proposed to set out boundaries between them. Using the data that are generated by SQS for managing health has many advantages but also poses many challenges.Conclusions: Inconsistency in conceptualisation of health SQ – as well as the challenges that users experience in health self-management – reveal the need for frameworks that can describe the users’ health SQ practice in a holistic and consistent manner. Our ongoing work toward developing these frameworks will help researchers in this domain to gain better understanding of this practice, and will enable more systematic investigations which are needed to improve the use of SQS and their data in health self-management.

Abstract:
Type-2 diabetes or adult-onset diabetes is the most common type of diabetes which usually begins when a person is in his or her mid-50s. It is a major, lifestyle-related disease with increasing occurrence at a national level. It occurs when the body cannot make sufficient insulin or the body cannot utilize the produced insulin. It is the foremost reason for premature deaths. Inappropriately managed, it can result in several health problems, including heart disease, stroke, kidney disease, blindness, neuropathy, leg and foot amputations, and death. Slight modifications in lifestyle can significantly decrease the probability of getting the disease. So, self-management skills are very much essential to manage and control this disease. Still, with proper testing, treatment, lifestyle changes, healthy eating, drinking water and avoiding dehydration, taking medications as prescribed, promoting walking, exercises, and other physical activities, conducting self-foot checks, and monitoring other signs and symptoms caused by diabetes have useful effects on the management of diabetes, encouraging adherence to this pattern is possessing great public health importance.

Abstract:
Australian general practitioners are recognising the need to implement some form of chronic condition management program to better service and cope with the ever-increasing number of patients presenting with chronic conditions. Chronic Condition Self-Management (CCSM) is one such program. In this paper it is argued that the basis of CCSM is a multi-disciplinary, care-team approach, and that implementation of such an approach represents a paradigm shift in primary health care service delivery. This equates to a significant innovation in primary health care service that, in economic terms, aims to increase primary health care outputs. Although general practitioners are at the centre of the change they cannot implement the change without the participation and collaboration of the other stakeholders. These stakeholders include other health service providers, the Divisions of General Practice, the Department of Health and Ageing, and the patient. This paper presents a general practice business model to illustrate the relationships between stakeholders in the primary health care sector and to identify the impact of CCSM on these relationships. The organisational and business issues that need to be addressed to promote the uptake of CCSM are also identified.

Abstract:
The theory based on the supposition that for the effective treatment of diabetes patients should largely take responsibility for their health, is of no doubt. This is only possible if patients are properly trained to perform continuous monitoring of their disease and have at their disposal some modern easily manageable blood glucose meters that meet international standards and. The present article highlights the changes in the last revision of national guidelines related to the treatment of self-control, as well as existing modern demands in instrumentation for glycemic control.

Abstract:
Aim: The aim of this concept analysis is to create a clear definition and framework to guide weight self-management research and promotion of healthy weight self-management during the postpartum period. Background: A woman’s ability to manage her weight through the postpartum transition has lifelong implications for her weight status. Methods: This concept analysis was guided by Walker and Avant (2005). A broad search of sources was performed, yielding 56 articles in which postpartum weight self-management was the main focus. Results: From consideration of the attributes of postpartum weight self-management, a descriptive, situation-specific theory emerged: Postpartum weight self-management is a process by which the transition to motherhood is viewed by the woman as an opportunity to intentionally engage in healthy weight self-management behaviors by minimizing the salient inhibitors and maximizing the salient facilitators to action. Conclusion: This analysis provides a clarification of the process concept of postpartum weight self-management and its consequences, giving direction for measurement, clinical application, and further research. Future nursing interventions and research should be aimed at helping women to view the postpartum period as a normative transition in which they have the opportunity to take charge of their own health and the health of their family.
