<p>Self-management refers to actions taken by persons with chronic disease to improve their quality of life. This predictive correlational study aimed to describe self-management, health literacy, self-efficacy, and social support and to examine the factors predicting self-management in elderly monks with hypertension. A purposive sampling of 196 elderly monks with hypertension were recruited through health care services from the outpatient department of a university hospital. Participants responded to interview forms which included personal information and information on illness-related data records, self-management behaviors, health literacy, self-efficacy, and social support. Descriptive statistical analysis and stepwise multiple regression analysis were used to analyze the data.</p> <p> The research findings indicated that the participants had self-management, health literacy, self-efficacy, and social support at a moderate level. Health literacy, self-efficacy, and social support collectively predicted self-management in the sample, accounting for 88.7% of the variance (β = 0.887, F = 15.578, p < .001). Health literacy was the highest predictor (β = .617, p < .001), followed by social support (β = .547, p < .001) and self-efficacy (β = .079, p < .05).</p> <p>The findings provide foundational information to promote health literacy and social support enhancing self-management for elderly monks with hypertension.</p>Sutthinan Codrington, Nattaya Yakong, Kronthip Inmueang, Manutsawee Kanom, Aphisit Thananchai

<p>Ventilator-associated pneumonia (VAP) is the most common complication found among patients who use mechanical ventilation as a life support measure. To improve the quality of nursing practice related to VAP prevention, baseline information regarding knowledge, adherence, and barriers related to VAP prevention among critical care nurses should be explored. This descriptive correlational design aimed to explore knowledge, adherence, and barriers to VAP prevention among critical care nurses in Baoshan City, the People’s Republic of China. The relationship between knowledge and adherence was also determined. Purposive sampling was used to recruit 142 critical care nurses from six hospitals in Baoshan City, Yunnan province, the People’s Republic of China. Measurement tools were composed of 1) the demographic data record form, 2) questionnaires related to knowledge towards prevention of VAP (QKVAP), and 3) the Questionnaire on VAP Prevention Compliance and Barriers (QVAPCB). The Chinese versions of these instruments were used. The internal consistency of the QKVAP using the KR-20 formula was .81, and the Cronbach's alpha coefficients of the QVAPCB adherence and barrier parts were .91 and .87, respectively. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics and Spearman's rank-order correlation test.</p> <p>The results of this study were as follows:<br /><span style="font-size: 0.875rem;">1. The majority of participants (81.69%) had knowledge of VAP and VAP prevention at a fair level;<br /></span><span style="font-size: 0.875rem;">2. The majority of participants (95.07%) perceived adherence to VAP prevention at a sufficient level;<br /></span><span style="font-size: 0.875rem;">3. Knowledge was positively related to adherence to VAP prevention at a low level (r = .255, p < .001);<br /></span><span style="font-size: 0.875rem;">4. The top three barriers towards VAP prevention perceived by critical care nurses were forgetfulness to perform some evidence-based procedures (90.14%), staff shortages in the unit (82.39%), and noncompliance of patients in performing VAP prevention practice (59.15%).</span></p> <p>The study findings provide baseline information regarding critical care nurses’ knowledge and adherence, as well as the barriers to complying with VAP prevention. Further research should explore the factors influencing collaboration on and barriers to VAP prevention related to the use of ventilators in each ICU in order to have strategic plans to improve the VAP prevention. </p>Renjing Jiang, Achara Sukonthasarn, Suparat Wangsrikhun
