Quality of Life Clinical Trial

Official title:
Effects of a Biopsychosocial-Spiritual Group Intervention on Quality of Life of Institutionalized Seniors With Disabilities: A Randomized Controlled Trial

Clinical Trial Summary

This study aimed to evaluate the effects of a biopsychosocial-spiritual (BPS-S) Group intervention on quality of life among seniors with disabilities in long-term care residential settings.

Clinical Trial Description

Background: Traditionally, biomedical care approach has been insufficient to meet the complex needs of older people living with multi-morbidity. Promoting whole-person wellness and better quality of life becomes a key goal of care in residential long-term care facilities. The integrative approaches composed of physio-psycho-social and spiritual components might be a viable strategy to assist older adults accept uncontrollable life changes and enhance holistic wellness. Purpose: The study purpose was to develop and evaluate the effects of 8-week biopsychosocial-spiritual (BPS-S) group intervention versus usual care on self-perception of quality of life (QoL) and meaning in life among seniors with disability in residential care home at mid- and post-intervention, and at a 1-month follow up. Methods: This single-blind randomized controlled trail with repeated measures design was conducted in residential long-term care facilities. Both the experimental groups (EG) and the control group (CG) received routing group activities based on their institution's schedule. Additionally, the EG received 8 sessions of weekly BPS-S group therapy for 80 minutes each. The baseline characteristics of residents with disabilities (including demographic information, length of stay in the institution and medical conditions) were collected using a data sheet, and activities of daily living of these residents were measured using the Barthel Index. To evaluate the effectiveness of the BPS-S group therapy, the primary outcomes including "participants' overall QOL" and the secondary outcome "meaning in life" were assessed at four time points: before, mid- and post- intervention and at a 1-month follow up. Quality of Life Index (QLI)-Part I and Purpose in Life (PIL) test were used to measure these outcome variables, respectively. ;
