ObjectivesTo determine the effect of peer-led group education on the quality of life and depression in patients with ankylosing spondylitis (AS).
MethodsEighty patients with definite AS were allocated randomly to either the education or control group. The education group (n=40) was subjected to a peer-led group education program about disease and was given an educational booklet, while the control group (n=40) was given the educational booklet only. Levels of quality of life and depression were measured at baseline, immediately after education (fourth week) and at 6months in both groups.
ResultsThe results are based on 56 (n=27, education group; n=29, control group) patients. The level of quality of life and depressive symptoms were not changed except for a deterioration in the social functioning subgroup of Short From (SF)-36 in both groups. When the groups were compared, there were no significant differences between changes in social functioning scores.
ConclusionsPeer-led education did not alter quality of life levels and depression scores. However, because of the maintainance of quality of life levels, this type of intervention may be considered as a supplementary intervention to the standard medical care for management of AS. |
