Abstract

© 2021 John Wiley & Sons LtdAims: This research is conducted to determine the effect of salutogenesis-based home care on the sense of coherence in patients with peritoneal dialysis. Background: Recent studies on the salutogenesis model have shown that the model is effective in promoting and improving health. It was observed that studies based on the salutogenesis model were carried out in the form of a training programme, and there was no study that shows its effectiveness on patient care by integrating it into the nursing process. Design: The research is conducted as a pre-test–post-test control group experimental study. Methods: The study included 73 patients, including 36 in the intervention group and 37 in the control group. The research data are collected using the Patient Identifier Information Form, Dialysis Symptom Index (DSI), General Self-Efficacy Scale (GSES) and the Sense of Coherence Scale (SIS). The intervention group is provided care based on the salutogenesis model by making home visits 1 time per week for 8 weeks. In this study, the TREND checklist was followed for non-randomised controlled trials. Results: In the study, the pre-test DSI, GSES and SIS (meaningfulness, comprehensibility, manageability sub-dimension) mean scores of the individuals in the intervention and control groups are similar. The third-month and sixth-month intervention group SIS total and sub-dimension scores and GSES scores are found to be statistically significantly higher than the scores of the control group. Conclusions: As a result of the study, it is determined that the care based on the salutogenesis model provided to peritoneal dialysis patients increases the sense of coherence and self-efficacy and provides symptom control and decreases the dialysis symptoms. Relevance to clinical practice: It has been observed that the salutogenesis model can be used as a step of nursing care in providing symptom control by strengthening the self-efficacy of patients in clinical and home care.
