Abstract
Background: Multiple Sclerosis is a long-term autoimmune, neurodegenerative and inflammatory condition that impacts on the central nervous system. This study aimed to evaluate the effect of a health promotion self-care program on knowledge, health promoting behaviors and quality of life for patients with multiple sclerosis. A quasi-experimental (pre/posttest)research design was utilized to conduct the study.Setting: The study was conducted at Neurology Outpatient Clinic at Benha Health Insurance Hospital, Benha City, Egypt. Sampling: A simple random sample was used to select 133 patients with multiple sclerosis. Threetools were used to collect data:I: Interviewing questionnaire divided into three parts including the sociodemographic characteristics, health related data, and patients’ knowledge regarding multiple sclerosis disease, II: The Health-Promoting Lifestyle Profile II (HPLP II), and III: Hamburg Quality of Life Questionnaire for MS. Results showed that after applying the health promotion self-care program, there was a significant difference in the mean scores of knowledge, health promoting behavior, and quality of life of patients with MS (p < 0.001), the scores were significantly higher in posttest. Conclusion: The health-promoting self-care program had a substantial positive impact on MS patients' knowledge, health promoting behaviors, and quality of life. Recommendations: Incorporate the health-promoting self-care programs into routine care for individuals with MS to enhance knowledge, health promoting behaviors, and quality of life. In addition, provide continuous education and support to sustain the improved knowledge and health promoting behaviors over time.
