Aim:
To identify the latent profiles and predictors of family management styles for children with asthma.
Design:
This is a secondary data analysis. The demographic data of 506 primary caregivers of children with asthma and their scores of the Family Management Scale in a cross-sectional study were used. Latent profile analysis and multiple logistic regression analyses were employed.
Results:
Three family management styles were identified: Thriving (Profile 1), Accommodating (Profile 2), and Enduring (Profile 3) Family Management Style. The child's age, gender, mother's education level, family structure, influence of illness on parents' work and family life, whether they had follow-up plans and whether their parents had read disease and health knowledge pamphlets were found to be the predictors of different styles.
Conclusion:
Three distinct family management styles exist for children with asthma. Future interventions designed to enhance family management for children with asthma should be based on their demographic characteristics and family management styles.
Implications For The Profession And Patient Care:
The precise classification of family management styles in this study can serve as a guide to form multi-disciplinary teams of physicians and nurses to provide individualized care and conduct in-depth research to explore the mechanisms of biomedicine and the social psychology of asthma in the future.
Impact:
This paper aims to identify the latent profiles and predictors of family management styles of children with asthma. Thriving, accommodating, and enduring family management styles were identified in this paper. Child's characteristics, family and organizational factors were the predictors of different family management styles. Findings of this paper provide guidance for physicians and nurses to offer individualized care and conduct in-depth research to explore the mechanisms of biomedicine and the social psychology of asthma in the future.
Reporting Method:
The article was reported according to the STROBE Checklist.
