Recovery of Individuals With Alcohol Use Disorders Based on Roy Adaptation Model
Condition: Addiction, Alcohol
MeSH terms: Alcoholism; Alcohol Drinking
Study type: Interventional

Summary: 
      Abstract Aim: This study aimed to determine the effect of individualized nursing
      interventions based on the Roy Adaptation Model on the recovery of alcohol addicts.

      Method: This was an experimental study with pretest-posttest, follow-up, and a control group.
      It included 64 individuals who completed their detoxification process and met the inclusion
      criteria. The experimental group was provided with individualized care, and interventions
      were made in line with the Roy Adaptation Model. The personal behaviors that could be related
      to recurrence (physiological, self-concept, role function, and mutual commitment) and the
      stimuli that caused recurrence (focal and affecting) were assessed, objectives were
      determined, and nursing interventions were carried out in line with these objectives. The
      interventions planned for diagnosing ineffective coping were selected according to the
      patients' needs among the "support coping" interventions under the title of the behavioral
      area in the Nursing Intervention Classification (NIC).

      The data were collected using an introductory information form, the Recovery Assessment Scale
      (RAS), the Turkish Version of the World Health Organization Quality of Life Instrument
      (WHOQOL-BREF-TR), and the Penn Alcohol Craving Scale (PACS).
    


Intervention name(s): individualized nursing interventions based on the Roy Adaptation Model /experimental
Intervention type(s): Behavioral
Intervention description(s): The personal behaviors that could be related to recurrence (physiological, self-concept, role function, and mutual commitment) and the stimuli that caused recurrence (focal and affecting) were assessed, objectives were determined, and nursing interventions were carried out in line with these objectives. The interventions planned for diagnosing ineffective coping were selected according to the patients' needs among the "support coping" interventions under the title of the behavioral area in the Nursing Intervention Classification (NIC). A total of 10 individual interviews were made twice a week for about 45 to 60 minutes. The interviews were evaluated by determining the area specific Nursing outcome classification (NOC) (self respect, social support, mood management, role performance).
Allocation: Randomized
Intervention model: Parallel Assignment
Intervention model description: Eighty individuals who alcohol use disorder were assessed for eligibility and 70 individuals (who completed their detoxification process, were able to understand the scales and forms and maintain individual interviews, were between 30 and 60 years of age, were diagnosed with alcohol addiction according to the DSM-5 diagnostic criteria, and voluntarily agreed to participate in the studywere) randomized. An experimental and a control group were formed by assigning persons to each group by using the stratified randomization technique in which a sex factor was involved, according to a random-number table. Four male participants in the experimental group (who were not involved in intervention) and two male participants in the control group (who were discharged) were excluded as they did not continue the study.
Masking: Single (Participant)
