Abstract

Background: Cardiovascular diseases are among the leading causes of morbidity and mortality worldwide, significantly impacting the quality of life of affected individuals. Understanding the psychological factors that influence the well-being of cardiovascular patients is crucial for developing effective interventions. This study investigates the mediating role of coping strategies in the relationship between self-efficacy for disease management, mental toughness, and quality of life in cardiovascular patients.

Method: This descriptive-analytical cross-sectional study was conducted in a specialized cardiology hospital in western Iran in 2022. The research employed correlation structure analyses and structural equation modeling. A total of 313 eligible patients with coronary artery disease participated in the study. Data were collected using questionnaires on coping strategies, self-efficacy in disease management, mental toughness, and quality of life. Of these, 303 valid responses were and analyzed using SPSS version 26 and PLS_3 software.

Results: The results indicated that self-efficacy and mental toughness are directly and indirectly related to quality of life through the mediation of problem-oriented coping style. Self-efficacy positively influenced problem-oriented coping styles (β = 0.226), which in turn enhanced quality of life (β = 0.192). Mental toughness showed a direct positive effect on quality of life (β = 0.276) and an indirect effect through problem-oriented coping (β = 0.032). However, Structural Equation Modeling did not confirm the mediation of emotion-oriented coping style, indicating no significant influence from self-efficacy or mental toughness on quality of life through this path. Additionally, patients with higher self-efficacy in managing their disease reported higher quality of life (β = 0.352).

Conclusion: These results highlight the importance of boosting self-efficacy and mental toughness in patients to improve their coping strategies and overall quality of life. Healthcare providers should consider incorporating these psychological factors into their treatment plans to achieve better patient outcomes.

应对策略在心血管患者疾病管理自我效能感、心理韧性和生活质量之间的中介作用
背景:心血管疾病是世界范围内发病率和死亡率的主要原因之一,严重影响患者的生活质量。了解影响心血管患者健康的心理因素对于制定有效的干预措施至关重要。本研究旨在探讨应对策略在心血管患者疾病管理自我效能感、心理韧性和生活质量之间的中介作用。方法:本描述性分析横断面研究于2022年在伊朗西部一家专门的心脏病医院进行。研究采用了相关结构分析和结构方程建模。共有313名符合条件的冠状动脉疾病患者参与了这项研究。通过问卷调查收集应对策略、疾病管理自我效能、心理韧性和生活质量等方面的数据。采用SPSS version 26和PLS_3软件对其中303份有效问卷进行分析。结果:自我效能感和心理韧性通过问题导向的应对方式与生活质量直接或间接相关。自我效能正向影响问题导向的应对方式(β = 0.226),问题导向的应对方式反过来提高生活质量(β = 0.192)。心理韧性对生活质量有直接正向影响(β = 0.276),通过问题导向应对有间接正向影响(β = 0.032)。然而,结构方程模型并未证实情绪导向应对方式的中介作用,表明自我效能感和心理韧性对生活质量没有显著影响。此外,在疾病管理方面自我效能更高的患者报告的生活质量更高(β = 0.352)。结论:提高患者的自我效能感和心理韧性对改善患者的应对策略和整体生活质量具有重要意义。医疗保健提供者应考虑将这些心理因素纳入其治疗计划,以获得更好的患者结果。
