Patient activation among people living with HIV: a cross-sectional comparative analysis with people living with diabetes mellitus.
AIDS Care 2018 May 25
Standardized self-management supports are an integral part of care delivery for many chronic conditions. We used the validated Patient Activation Measure (PAM®) to assess level of engagement for self-management from a sample of 165 people living with HIV (PLWH) and 163 people with diabetes. We conducted multivariable logistic regression to assess associations between demographics and PAM® scores. PLWH had high levels of activation that were no different from those of people with diabetes (mean score = 67.2, SD = 14.2 versus 65.0, SD = 14.9, p = 0.183). After adjusting for patient characteristics, only being on disability compared to being employed or a student was associated with being less activated (AOR = 0.276, 95%CI = 0.103-0.742). Our findings highlight the potential for the implementation of existing standardized chronic disease self-management programs to enhance the care delivery for PLWH, with people on disability as potential target populations.
