JF - International psychogeriatrics N2 - Background: Given the well-established association between perceived stress and quality of life (QoL) in dementia patients and their partners, our goal was to identify whether relationship quality and dyadic coping would operate as mediators between perceived stress and QoL. Results: We found negative correlations between stress and QoL in both partners (QoL-AD: r = -0.62; p < 0.001; WHO-QOL Overall: r = -0.27; p = 0.02). Spousal caregivers had a significantly lower DCI total score than dementia patients (p < 0.001). Dyadic coping was a significant mediator of the relationship between stress and QoL in spousal caregivers (z = 0.28; p = 0.02), but not in dementia patients. Likewise, relationship quality significantly mediated the relationship between stress and QoL in caregivers only (z = -2.41; p = 0.02). Conclusions: This study identified dyadic coping as a mediator on the relationship between stress and QoL in (caregiving) partners of dementia patients. In patients, however, we found a direct negative effect of stress on QoL. The findings suggest the importance of stress reducing and dyadic interventions for dementia patients and their partners, respectively.

Methods: 82 dyads of dementia patients and their spousal caregivers were included in a cross-sectional assessment from a prospective study. QoL was assessed with the Quality of Life in Alzheimer's Disease scale (QoL-AD) for dementia patients and the WHO Quality of Life-BREF for spousal caregivers. Perceived stress was measured with the Perceived Stress Scale (PSS-14). Both partners were assessed with the Dyadic Coping Inventory (DCI). Analyses of correlation as well as regression models including mediator analyses were performed. Results: We found negative correlations between stress and QoL in both partners (QoL-AD: r = -0.62; p < 0.001; WHO-QOL Overall: r = -0.27; p = 0.02).

Little is known about influencing factors of function and quality of life during multicomponent cardiac rehabilitation. Methods: From October 2013 to July 2015, patients with elective transcatheter aortic valve implantation and a subsequent inpatient cardiac rehabilitation were enrolled in the prospective cohort multicentre study. Frailty-Index (including cognition, nutrition, autonomy and mobility), Short Form-12 (SF-12), six-minute walk distance (6MWD) and maximum work load in bicycle ergometry were performed at admission and discharge of cardiac rehabilitation. The relation between patient characteristics and improvements in 6MWD, maximum work load or SF-12 scales were studied univariately and multivariately using regression models. Results: One hundred and thirty-six patients (80.6 +/- 5.0 years, 47.8% male) were enrolled. 6MWD and maximum work load increased by 56.3 +/- 65.3 m (p < 0.001) and 8.0 +/- 14.9 watts (p < 0.001), respectively. An improvement in SF-12 (physical 2.5 +/- 8.7, p = 0.001, mental 3.4 +/- 10.2, p = 0.003) could be observed. In multivariate analysis, age and higher education were significantly associated with a reduced 6MWD, whereas cognition and obesity showed a positive predictive value. Higher cognition, nutrition and autonomy positively influenced the physical scale of SF-12. Additionally, the baseline values of SF-12 had an inverse impact on the change during cardiac rehabilitation. Conclusions: Cardiac rehabilitation can improve functional capacity as well as quality of life and reduce frailty in patients after transcatheter aortic valve implantation. An individually tailored therapy with special consideration of cognition and nutrition is needed to maintain autonomy and empower octogenarians in coping with challenges of everyday life.

Explizite Daten zur multidisziplinären kardiologischen Rehabilitation nach TAVI liegen bislang nicht vor. Ziel vorliegender Arbeit war, den Effekt der kardiologischen Rehabilitation auf die körperliche Leistungsfähigkeit, den emotionalen Status, die Lebensqualität und die Gebrechlichkeit bei Patienten nach TAVI zu untersuchen sowie Prädiktoren für die Veränderung der körperlichen Leistungsfähigkeit und der Lebensqualität zu identifizieren. Methodik Zwischen 10/2013 und 07/2015 wurden 136 Patienten (80,6 ± 5,0 Jahre, 47,8 % Männer) in Anschlussheilbehandlung nach TAVI in drei kardiologischen Rehabilitationskliniken eingeschlossen. Zur Beurteilung des Effekts der kardiologischen Rehabilitation wurden jeweils zu Beginn und Ende der Rehabilitation der Frailty (Gebrechlichkeits)-Index (Score bestehend aus Barthel-Index, Instrumental Activities of Daily Living, Mini Mental State Exam, Mini Nutritional Assessment, Timed Up and Go und subjektiver Mobilitätsverschlechterung), die Lebensqualität im Short-Form 12 (SF-12) sowie die funktionale körperliche Leistungsfähigkeit im 6-Minuten Gehtest (6-minute walk test, 6MWT) und die maximale körperliche Leistungsfähigkeit in der Belastungs-Ergometrie erhoben. Zusätzlich wurden soziodemographische Daten (z. B. Alter und Geschlecht), Komorbiditäten (z. B. chronisch obstruktive Lungenerkrankung, koronare Herzkrankheit und Karzinom), kardiovaskuläre Risikofaktoren und die NYHA-Klasse dokumentiert. Prädiktoren für die Veränderung der körperlichen Leistungsfähigkeit und Lebensqualität wurden mit Kovarianzanalysen angepasst. Ergebnisse Die maximale Gehstrecke im 6MWT konnte um 56,3 ± 65,3 m (p < 0,001) und die maximale körperliche Leistungsfähigkeit in der Belastungs-Ergometrie um 8,0 ± 14,9 Watt (p < 0001) gesteigert werden. Weiterhin konnte eine Verbesserung im SF-12 sowohl in der körperlichen Summenskala um 2,5 ± 8,7 Punkte (p = 0,001) als auch in der psychischen Summenskala um 3,4 ± 10,2 Punkte (p = 0,003) erreicht werden. In der multivariaten Analyse waren ein höheres Alter und eine höhere Bildung signifikant mit einer geringeren Zunahme im 6MWT assoziiert, währenddessen eine bessere kognitive Leistungsfähigkeit und Adipositas einen positiven prädiktiven Wert aufwiesen. Eine höhere Selbstständigkeit und ein besserer Ernährungsstatus beeinflussten die Veränderung in der körperlichen Summenskala des SF-12 positiv, währenddessen eine bessere kognitive Leistungsfähigkeit einen Prädiktor für eine geringere Veränderung darstellte. Des Weiteren hatten die jeweiligen Ausgangswerte der körperlichen und psychischen Summenskala im SF-12 einen inversen Einfluss auf die Veränderungen in der gleichen Skala. Schlussfolgerung Eine multidisziplinäre kardiologische Rehabilitation kann sowohl die körperliche Leistungs-fähigkeit und Lebensqualität verbessern als auch die Gebrechlichkeit von Patienten nach kathetergestützter Aortenklappenkorrektur verringern. Daraus resultierend gilt es, spezifische Assessments für die kardiologische Rehabilitation zu entwickeln. Weiterhin ist es notwendig, individualisierte Therapieprogramme mit besonderem Augenmerk auf kognitive Funktionen und Ernährung zu initiieren, um die Selbstständigkeit hochbetagter Patienten zu erhalten bzw. wiederherzustellen und um die Pflegebedürftigkeit der Patienten hinauszuzögern. N2 - Background In the last decade, transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) has reached widespread clinical acceptance as treatment for elderly and high-risk patients with aortic stenosis. Little is known about influencing factors of function and quality of life during multicomponent cardi-ac rehabilitation. The aim of the underlying study was to investigate the impact of a multidis-ciplinary inpatient cardiac rehabilitation on function and frailty as well as to find predictors for changes in quality of life and physical capacity. Methods From 10/2013 to 07/2015, patients with an elective TAVI and a subsequent inpatient cardiac rehabilitation were enrolled in the prospective cohort multicentre study. A Frailty-Index (a score including Activities of Daily Living, Instrumental Activities of Daily Living, Mini Men-tal State Exam, Mini Nutritional Assessment, Timed Up and Go und subjective mobility disa-bility), quality of life by Short Form-12 (SF-12), function by 6-minute walk distance (6MWD) and by maximum work load in bicycle ergometry were performed at admission and discharge of cardiac rehabilitation. Additionally, sociodemographic parameters (e. g. age, sex), comorbidities (e. g. chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, coronary artery disease), cardiovascular risk factors and NYHA-class were documented. Predictors for changes in 6MWD and SF-12 were studied using analysis of covariance. Results 136 patients (80.6 ± 5.0 years, 47.8 % male) were enrolled. 6MWD and maximum work load increased by 56.3 ± 65.3 m (p < 0.001) and 8.0 ± 14.9 Watts (p < 0.001), respectively. An improvement in SF-12 (physical component scale 2.5 ± 8.7, p = 0.001, mental component scale 3.4 ± 10.2, p = 0.003) could be observed. In the multivariate analysis, age and a higher education were significantly associated with a reduced 6MWD, whereas cognition and obesity showed a positive predictive value. Nutrition and autonomy positively influenced the physical scale of SF-12, whereas a better cognitive performance negatively influenced it. Additionally, the baseline values of SF-12 had an inverse impact on the change during cardiac rehabilitation. Conclusions Cardiac rehabilitation can improve functional capacity as well as quality of life and reduce frailty in patients after TAVI. This results in a reevaluation of diagnostic modalities, prognostic parameters and an individualised definition of achievable goals in the contemporary TAVI population during the recovery phase at cardiac rehabilitation. An individually tailored therapy with special consideration of cognition and nutrition is needed to maintain autonomy and empower octogenarians in coping with challenges of everyday life.

Wie auch bei anderen chronischen Erkrankungen könnten Patientenschulungen ihr psychisches Befinden verbessern (z.B. De Ridder & Schreurs, 2001; Faller, Reusch & Meng, 2011a; Küver, Becker & Ludt, 2008; Schüssler, 1998; Warsi, Wang, LaValley, Avorn & Solomon, 2004). Für CED liegen jedoch nur wenige Schulungsevaluationen vor (z.B. Bregenzer et al., 2005; Mussell, Böcker, Nagel, Olbrich & Singer, 2003; Oxelmark, Magnusson, Löfberg & Hillerås, 2007), deren Aussagekraft i.d.R. durch methodische Mängel eingeschränkt ist. Daher ist die Bedeutung von Schulungsprogrammen für CED-Betroffene weiterhin offen. Überdies gibt es für den deutschen Sprachraum noch keine Schulung, die zu psychischen Verbesserungen führt. Aus diesem Grunde wurde ein 1,5-tägiges Wochenend-Seminar mit medizinischen und psychologischen Inhalten konzeptionalisiert, manualisiert und in der vorliegenden Studie evaluiert. Zur summativen Evaluation nahmen 181 ambulante CED-Patienten an einer prospektiven, multizentrischen, randomisierten, kontrollierten Studie mit vier Messzeitpunkten teil: vor (T1), zwei Wochen (T2) und drei Monate (T3) nach dem Seminar. Zur 12-Monatskatamnese (T4EG) wurde die Stabilität der Effekte in der Experimentalgruppe (EG; n = 86) überprüft. Die Wartekontrollgruppe (n = 95) erhielt zunächst die Standardbehandlung, also keine Patientenschulung, und konnte an dieser nach der dritten Datenerhebung ebenfalls teilnehmen. Kovarianzanalysen (ANCOVAs) mit Kontrolle für die jeweilige Ausgangslage wurden durchgeführt. Weitere Analysen legten eine Adjustierung für die Krankheitsaktivität zu T1 nahe, weshalb diese als zusätzliche Kovariate in die ANCOVAs aufgenommen wurde. Krankheitsbezogene Ängste und Sorgen (PS-CEDE Gesamtwert zu T3; Krebs, Kachel & Faller, 1998) fungierten als primärer Zielparameter. Zu den sekundären Zielkriterien gehörten Progredienzangst und Angstbewältigung (PA-F-KF und PA-F; Mehnert, Herschbach, Berg, Henrich & Koch, 2006 bzw. Dankert et al., 2003; Herschbach et al., 2005) sowie die Gesundheitskompetenzen Positive Grundhaltung, Aktive Lebensgestaltung und Erwerb von Fertigkeiten und Handlungsstrategien (heiQ; Osborne, Elsworth & Whitfield, 2007; Schuler et al., 2013). Weitere sekundäre Zielparameter waren gesundheitsbezogene Lebensqualität (SF-12; Bullinger & Kirchberger, 1998), Symptome einer Angststörung oder Depression (PHQ-4; Kroenke, Spitzer, Williams & Löwe, 2009; Löwe et al., 2010), Wissen, der Umgang mit der CED bzw. von ihr ausgelösten negativen Gefühlen sowie die Zufriedenheit der Teilnehmenden mit dem Seminar. Von Interesse war außerdem, ob Geschlecht, Alter, Art, Dauer oder Aktivität der Erkrankung vor der Schulung einen Einfluss auf die genannten Variablen hatten und ob für sie differentielle Wirksamkeitseffekte bestanden. Darüber hinaus wurden krankheitsbezogene Ängste und Sorgen von ungeschulten Studienteilnehmern untersucht. Zwei Wochen und drei Monate nach der Schulung ließen sich im Vergleich von Experimental- und Kontrollgruppe signifikante, mittlere bis große Effekte auf krankheitsbezogene Ängste und Sorgen, Progredienzangst und deren Bewältigung sowie eine Positive Grundhaltung der CED gegenüber erzielen (stets p ≤ .001). Außerdem kam es zu beiden Messzeitpunkten zu signifikanten, großen Interventionseffekten auf den Erwerb von Fertigkeiten und Handlungsstrategien im Umgang mit der Erkrankung, das Wissen um sie und den Umgang mit ihr (stets p < .001) sowie zu moderaten Effekten auf den Umgang mit CED-bedingten negativen Gefühlen (T2: p = .001; T3: p = .008). Alle beschriebenen Effekte waren auch nach zwölf Monaten noch stabil. Für Aktive Lebensgestaltung, gesundheitsbezogene Lebensqualität sowie Angst- und Depressionssymptomatik konnten keine Schulungseffekte nachgewiesen werden. Die zusätzliche Kontrolle für die Krankheitsaktivität zu T1 führte zu keinen wesentlichen Änderungen in den Ergebnissen. Auch bei den Subgruppenanalysen hatte die Krankheitsaktivität keinen relevanten Einfluss auf die Wirksamkeit der Schulung. Gleiches gilt für Geschlecht, Alter, Art und Dauer der CED. Mit Ausnahme der Krankheitsaktivität deuteten dies bereits die zur Baseline durchgeführten t-Tests an, bei denen insgesamt nur sehr wenige signifikante, höchstens moderate Unterschiede zwischen den einzelnen Subgruppen auftraten. Sowohl bei der formativen als auch der summativen Evaluation zeigte sich überdies die hohe Zufriedenheit der Teilnehmenden mit der Schulung. Neben der Akzeptanz konnte außerdem die Durchführbarkeit bestätigt werden. Die Auswertung der Ängste und Sorgen der Studienteilnehmenden lieferte zudem Hinweise für die Entwicklung und Modifikation von Interventionen für CED-Betroffene. Es lässt sich festhalten, dass für die hier evaluierte Schulung für CED-Patienten ein Wirksamkeitsnachweis erbracht werden konnte und sie sehr positiv von den Teilnehmenden bewertet wurde. Sie führte sowohl kurz-, mittel- als auch langfristig zu substantiellen Verbesserungen in psychischer Belastung, Selbstmanagement-Fähigkeiten, der Bewältigung der Erkrankung sowie im Wissen und war gleichermaßen wirksam bei Betroffenen, die sich in Geschlecht, Alter, Art, Dauer oder Aktivität ihrer CED unterschieden. N2 - People with inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD) are affected by a wide range of somatic and psychosocial impairments. As in other chronic conditions, patient education might improve their well-being (e.g., De Ridder & Schreurs, 2001; Faller et al., 2011a; Küver et al., 2008; Schüssler, 1998; Warsi et al., 2004). In IBD only a few evaluations of education programs are available (e.g., Bregenzer et al., 2005; Mussell et al., 2003; Oxelmark et al., 2007) whose significance is limited due to several methodological flaws. The impact of education in IBD remains therefore unclear. Furthermore, there is no program contributing to psychological improvements for the German-speaking area so far. Thus, a manualized 1.5-day weekend-seminar for IBD patients, addressing medical and psychological issues, was designed. The main aim of this study was to evaluate it in a large controlled trial. For summative evaluation, 181 outpatients participated in a prospective, multicenter, randomized, waitlist-controlled trial with assessments before (t1) as well as two weeks (t2) and three months (t3) after the seminar. Patients serving as waitlist controls (n = 95) received treatment as usual (no patient education) and were also offered to participate in the intervention after the third data collection. The intervention group (IG, n = 86) was reassessed for stability of effects at the 12-months follow-up (t4IG). Analysis of covariance (ANCOVA) with adjustment for the respective baseline score was used. Due to further analyses, which suggested a control for baseline perceived disease activity, the ANCOVAs were repeated with that additional covariate. Disease-related worries and concerns (IBDPC total score at t3, German validation by Krebs et al., 1998; original: RFIPC by Drossman et al., 1991) were the primary outcome. Secondary outcomes included fear of progression and coping with anxiety (FoP-Q-SF; Mehnert et al., 2006; FoP-Q; Dankert et al., 2003; Herschbach et al., 2005), and the following three health competencies: constructive attitudes and approaches, skill and technique acquisition as well as positive and active engagement in life (heiQ; Osborne et al., 2007; Schuler et al., 2013). Further sec¬ondary outcomes were health-related quality of life (HRQoL; SF-12; Bullinger & Kirchberger, 1998), symptoms of depression and anxiety (PHQ-4; Kroenke et al., 2009; Löwe et al., 2010), disease-related knowledge, coping, and participants’ satisfaction with the seminar. It was also of interest, if patient characteristics like sex, age, type, duration or activity of IBD influenced those variables at baseline and if differential effects of the intervention existed. Moreover, baseline disease-related worries and concerns were analyzed. At two weeks and three months post-intervention, significant medium to large effects on disease-related worries and concerns, fear of progression, and coping with anxiety as well as constructive attitudes and approaches could be achieved (each p ≤ .001). In addition, large significant effects on skill and technique acquisition, knowledge, and coping with IBD (each p < .001) and medium effects on coping with disease-related negative emotions (t2: p = .001; t3: p = .008) were found. All aforementioned effects persisted even after one year. Effects on positive and active engagement in life, HRQoL as well as symptoms of anxiety and depression could not be observed. Additional adjustment for perceived disease activity basically yielded similar results. Moreover, subgroup analyses did not show any relevant influence of disease activity on the effectiveness of the intervention. The same applies to participants’ sex and age as well as their type of IBD and its duration. With the exception of disease activity, this was already suggested by t-tests performed at baseline, which showed only very few significant differences of moderate size between subgroups. Furthermore, for formative and summative evaluation the education program was rated very favorably by the attendees. In addition to its acceptance, its feasibility was confirmed. The results of the analyses of study participants’ disease-related worries and concerns can be used for the develop¬ment and modification of interventions for patients with IBD. In conclusion, the patient education program tested in this study proved to be effective and was appreciated by the attendees. It contributed to substantial short-, medium-, and even long-term improvements in psychological distress, self-management skills, coping with IBD, and knowledge, which were independent of sex, age, type, duration, or activity of IBD.

This study examines the relationships between ‘own DC’ and ‘perceived partner DC’ with depressive symptoms in couples coping with dementia on individual (actor effects) and cross-person (partner effects) levels. Method: 164 individuals (82 patients with early-stage dementia and their 82 caregiving partners; ND = 82 dyads) participated in this prospective study with measures (DC, depressive symptoms, and dementia severity) taken at baseline and at six months. Each partner evaluated their own and the perceived partner DC. Actor–partner interdependence models were applied to the resulting four independent evaluations. Results: Results differed substantially between patients and caregivers. DC was significantly related to patients’ but not to caregivers’ depressive symptoms, when adjustments were made for individual coping. Perceived partner DC showed a negative association with depressive symptoms in patients, whereas own DC was adversely related for actor as well as for partner effects across individuals. Conclusion: The adverse association between the own DC of the caregiver and the patient on depressive symptoms of the patient might be due to inappropriate efforts or to the loss of autonomy as a care-receiver. DC is important in both patients and caregivers, as shown by the negative association between perceived partner DC and depressive symptoms in the patients, which might inform interventions that target the couple as a whole.

In the present examination, the association of perceived overprotection in PwD is examined as an autonomy-restricting factor and thus negative for their mental well-being. Cross-sectional data from the prospective DYADEM study of 82 patient/partner dyads (mean age = 74.26) were used to investigate the association between overprotection, perceived stress, depression, and quality of life (QoL). The analyses show that an overprotective contact style with PwD has a significant positive association with stress and depression, and has a negative association with QoL. The results emphasize the importance of avoiding an overprotective care style and supporting patient autonomy.
