OBJECTIVEThe primary goal for clinical healthcare professionals is to enhance the quality of life (QOL) of patients with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS). This study aimed to explore the correlation between social support, coping style, advance care planning (ACP) readiness, and QOL in patients with ALS. We also sought to analyze the mediating effect of coping style and ACP readiness between social support and QOL, and to provide insights for developing targeted interventions to improve patients' QOL.METHODSA cross-sectional design was used, with participants recruited through convenience sampling in Tianjin, China. Statistical analysis included the t-test, analysis of variance, correlation analysis, and mediating effect analysis.RESULTSThe study included 215 participants. The QOL of patients with ALS was at a medium level, with significant correlations between social support, coping style, ACP readiness, and QOL (all p < 0.01). The direct effect of social support on QOL was 0.403 (p = 0.018), accounting for 41.85% of the total effect. The total indirect effect of social support on QOL through coping style and ACP readiness was 0.560 (p < 0.001), accounting for 58.15% of the total effect. The chain mediating effect involving facing, avoiding, and ACP readiness accounted for 16.72%.CONCLUSIONSocial support directly influenced QOL and had an indirect impact through coping style and ACP readiness. Healthcare professionals can improve the QOL of patients with ALS by enhancing social support, disease-coping ability, and ACP readiness in clinical practice.
目的：临床医护人员的首要目标是提高肌萎缩侧索硬化症（ALS）患者的生活质量（QOL）。本研究旨在探讨 ALS 患者的社会支持、应对方式、预先护理计划（ACP）准备程度和 QOL 之间的相关性。方法本研究采用横断面设计，在中国天津通过便利抽样招募参与者。统计分析包括 t 检验、方差分析、相关分析和中介效应分析。ALS 患者的 QOL 处于中等水平，社会支持、应对方式、ACP 准备程度与 QOL 之间存在显著相关性（均 p <0.01）。社会支持对 QOL 的直接效应为 0.403（p = 0.018），占总效应的 41.85%。社会支持通过应对方式和 ACP 准备程度对 QOL 的间接效应为 0.560（p < 0.001），占总效应的 58.15%。结论 社会支持直接影响 QOL，并通过应对方式和 ACP 准备程度产生间接影响。医护人员在临床实践中可以通过增强社会支持、疾病应对能力和ACP准备度来改善ALS患者的QOL。

OBJECTIVEHealth coaching may supplement the multidisciplinary ALS clinic model to facilitate patient-centered health behavior change. The aim of this study was to determine the effects of nurse health coaching (NHC) on the quality of life and self-efficacy of individuals living with ALS.METHODSTwenty-nine participants were randomized at 1:1 to the standard of care and coaching arms. All participants attended multidisciplinary ALS clinic visits quarterly, at which times they completed assessments of quality of life and self-efficacy. Those in the coaching arm participated in monthly coaching with a nurse coach over 12 months. The coaching sessions utilized motivational interviewing to identify personal goals along with barriers and solutions to achieve them. Linear mixed-effect models were used to quantify the effect of coaching on quality of life and self-efficacy outcomes. Thematic analysis was performed to summarize the participants' experiences with coaching.RESULTSAdherence to the coaching intervention was good. No effects of coaching were observed on the primary outcomes of quality of life and self-efficacy, although debriefed participants reported that they would recommend it to others. Patients and caregivers reflected on the impacts of coaching that extended beyond the pre-defined study outcomes and measures put in place to gauge effectiveness.CONCLUSIONSThe elicited qualitative themes illustrating patient experience of coaching demonstrate the utility of nurse coaching as an important adjunct support to complement the multidisciplinary ALS clinic model.
目的健康指导可作为 ALS 多学科门诊模式的补充，促进以患者为中心的健康行为改变。本研究旨在确定护士健康指导（NHC）对 ALS 患者的生活质量和自我效能的影响。所有参与者每季度接受一次 ALS 多学科门诊，并在门诊期间完成生活质量和自我效能评估。辅导组的参与者则在 12 个月内每月接受一次护士教练的辅导。辅导课利用动机访谈法确定个人目标以及实现目标的障碍和解决方案。线性混合效应模型用于量化辅导对生活质量和自我效能结果的影响。结果辅导干预的依从性良好。虽然听取汇报的参与者表示会向他人推荐辅导，但没有观察到辅导对生活质量和自我效能等主要结果的影响。患者和护理人员对辅导效果的反思超出了预先设定的研究结果和为衡量效果而采取的措施的范围。

Objective: This proof-of-concept study aimed to explore the acceptability and potential benefit of a self-guided online self-compassion intervention to aid resilient coping and reduce emotional distress among patients and caregivers living with ALS. Methods: A single-arm pilot study was conducted in 20 adults living with ALS either as a patient or as a caregiver. Acceptability was examined using questionnaires (n = 20) and semi-structured interviews (n = 9). Potential benefit was assessed as changes in self-compassion, self-criticism and emotional distress, determined using psychological questionnaires at 3 and 6 weeks. Questionnaires were analyzed using linear mixed-effects models and interview data using inductive thematic analysis. Results: Out of 20 participants who started the intervention, 16 completed the study (80%). The majority of study completers (12/16) were satisfied with the intervention, but the data suggest room for improvement in terms of personalization. Qualitative data revealed multiple psychological benefits of using the intervention, including self-kindness, emotional self-awareness and savoring. Although not statistically significant, quantitative data showed positive trends with increased self-compassion (mean difference: 2.07; 95% CI: -.5.76 - 1.63) and reduced self-criticism (mean difference: -2.62; 95% CI: -.1.97 - 7.23) and emotional distress (mean difference: -2.49; 95% CI: -.51 - 5.50) at week 6 compared to baseline. Conclusions: The findings suggest that a self-compassion intervention is acceptable to people living with ALS, but its beneficial effects and the mechanisms involved have yet to be established in larger and more diverse samples, using controlled designs.
