TI  - THE EFFECT OF EDUCATIONAL INTERVENTION ON KNOWLEDGE AND SELF-EFFICACY FOR PAIN 
      CONTROL IN PATIENTS WITH MULTIPLE SCLEROSIS.
PG  - 283-287
AB  - INTRODUCTION: Multiple Sclerosis (MS) is one of the most common autoimmune 
      diseases affecting the central nervous system. The prevalence of it is increasing 
      in our country too. The pain from disorders can affect quality of life. Several 
      studies have pointed to the improvement of patients through educational 
      intervention. This study attempted to evaluate the effectiveness of an 
      educational intervention based on raising the awareness and self-efficacy for 
      pain control among patients with multiple sclerosis during 2015 under the 
      coverage of Isfahan MS Society (IMSS). MATERIALS AND METHODS: This was a 
      quasi-experimental study involving pre-test, post-test and randomized control 
      group conducted on 100 patients with MS referred to the Isfahan MS Society 
      (IMSS). The educational intervention group learned the pain management self-care 
      lesson during 4 weekly sessions. The data were collected through a 
      self-structured questionnaire with adequate validity and reliability, containing 
      demographic data, awareness and self-efficacy of pain control. The data were 
      assessed through descriptive and analytical tests assisted by SPSS 17. The 
      significant level was considered as P<0.05. RESULTS: Concerning the 
      questionnaire, 96% of the items were responded. Most participants were women. The 
      frequency distribution of demographic variables was not significantly different 
      between the two pre-test groups. After the intervention, the mean score of 
      knowledge and efficacy among patients in the intervention group was significantly 
      higher than the control group (P<0.001). CONCLUSIONS: Educational interventions 
      can improve awareness and self-efficacy for pain control among patients with MS. 
      Therefore, such interventions can be designed to reduce physical and 
      psychological complications following multiple sclerosis.
