Factors associated with self-care in people with advanced chronic kidney disease and their experience of care in Catalonia: an application of Leventhal’s self-regulatory model
The Leventhal's self-regulatory model facilitated the understanding of the psychosocial factors associated with ACKD, as reported by patients, as well as the various coping strategies they employed. Findings highlight how individuals manage ACKD based on cognitive and emotional structures, supporting future SRM applications. Educational interventions should strengthen identity, promote coping strategies while addressing barriers, and explore emotional impacts. Additionally, healthcare strategies should enhance professional awareness, improving both health education and care continuity.
