ABSTRACTBreast cancer was the most common type of cancer in women worldwide. It was the leading cause of death in young women. Therefore, detected breast cancer in the early stage were needed. Breast self-examination was one of methods can detect breast cancer. In addition, program that promote BSE was important to incerase awarness of women to perform BSE. The study aimed to to find or formulate the applicable, effective, and efficient educational program for promoting BSE. Methods of the study by using electronic databases, such as CINAHL, Pub Med, Science Direct, and Ovid. The articles which were included in this review were published from 1990 to 2010. The study also used the universal case entry website like goggle-web and goggle-scholars. The keywords that already used such as the effect of educational program for promoting BSE, breast cancer screening, breast self-examination, program for promoting BSE, breast cancer, factors influencing BSE, define of BSE, factor related to BSE practice. The results of the study were categorized into five main topic such as concept of BSE, factors related to BSE practice, educational program for promoting BSE, strengths and weakness of those program, and recommendation. Conclusion and recomendation, most of the program effectiveness to increase BSE practice and BSE self-efficacy among women, but many factors influence the program such as cultural, level of knowledge, and demographic data. Besides, most of the programs use the HBM and SCT to develop their program, because both of these theories have variables that can encourage women to perform BSE. But, both of the theories did not consider the important role of cultural on health behavior, which it can affect of the BSE practice and self-efficacy. In addition, for the further recommended program should consider the role of cultural and use multifaceted method to improve BSE practice. Keywords: Breast cancer, educational program, cultural sensitivity.

Abstract

Background: Technology-based intervention showed a promising approach to health promotion strategies. There had been limited knowledge of the existing program for technology-based intervention in promoting foot care and dietary behavior modification. Thus, a mobile app was developed as an alternative strategy for promoting foot care and dietary behavior modification. Objective: This paper aims to elaborate on the process of developing, validating, and examining the Diabetic Care Self-Management Mobile Health Application (Diabetic Care). Methods: There are two phases conducted. The first phase is the process of developing and validating Diabetic Care. Intervention Mapping (IM) Framework was used to guide the process of developing Diabetic Care, while in assessing validity, guidance from Kassam-Adams et al. was used. A team of experts was appointed to validate the mobile app developed. Next, the usability of Diabetic Care was conducted among ten conveniently chosen patients with diabetes in a governmental primary care clinic. Results: The process of developing Diabetic Care was clearly explained. The Diabetic Care app showed a good I-CVI score (1.00) and general CVI score (1.00) after the expert team assessed. During the trial, two drawbacks were identified and explored to find solutions. Conclusion: The Diabetic Care app is proven appropriate to be employed in the study. Even though there were two drawbacks encountered, however, possible solutions were able to be explored in addressing the issues. Further research should be conducted to examine the effectiveness of this mobile app in modifying foot care behavior and dietary behavior. Hence, it will assist in the translation of advanced technology in nursing care.

Abstract

Background: Mobile health presents a promising alternative in the digital era. Mobile health apps (mHealth), when combined with the concept of self-management, are considered one of the methods for incorporating technology-based interventions into the healthcare system. Objective: This study aimed to determine the effect of mHealth (specifically, the Diabetic Care App) on foot care behavior, dietary behavior, foot condition, and fasting blood glucose levels among patients with uncontrolled diabetes mellitus. Methods: A single randomized controlled trial was conducted at a government-run primary clinic in Northern Malaysia, involving 58 patients with uncontrolled diabetes who were assigned to two groups. The intervention group received the Diabetic Care App, attended a 2-hour face-to-face session, and was included in a WhatsApp group, while the control group received standard care. Relevant assessments were conducted for both groups in Week 1 and Week 5. The study was conducted from February 2020 to November 2020, and parametric and non-parametric statistics were used for data analysis. Results: Pretest-posttest comparisons in both groups revealed significant findings for foot care behavior (p <0.01), dietary behavior (p <0.01), and foot condition (p <0.01), except for fasting blood glucose levels. In inter-group comparisons, a significant difference was observed only in foot care behavior (p <0.01) and dietary behavior (p <0.01). Conclusion: The results indicate that technology-based interventions are beneficial for modifying behavior, specifically in terms of foot care and dietary behavior, in this study. The study highlights the applicability of mHealth for nurses in patient education and self-management of chronic conditions. Future research should explore app utilization among patients with chronic conditions.   Clinical trial registration number: NCT04260100 (registered at https://clinicaltrials.gov/ct2/show/NCT04260100)
