Résumé :
|
"Improving the health intervention of menopause women about health literacy skills is a major priority to improve women’s life quality. This study aimed to investigate the effect of health literacy training on menopausal women’s quality of life. A randomized controlled trial method was used to enroll 60 menopausal women from January 2015 to December 2015 in the Mashhad, Iran. The Short Test of Functional Health Literacy` Assessment (S-TOFHLA), and Menopause-Specific Quality of Life (MENQOL) questionnaires were used to assess whether the health literacy training improved women’s quality of life. Following the intervention, there was significant improvement (p < 0.05) in menopause-specific quality of life among the women being managed by the women receiving training, compared to the control group. Linear regression analysis revealed that occupation (ß = 0.45, p = 0.046) and health literacy (ß = 0.47, p = 0.029) were significantly associated with menopausal symptoms. This study showed that sufficient health literacy training is significantly influential in promoting life quality. The quality of health literacy is an important modifiable element in communities that may influence life quality in menopause women. Further research is needed to understand the actual impact of health literacy on quality of life during menopause."
