| Objectives: This study aimed to determine the relationship between pain of osteoarthritis (OA) and body mass index (BMI), age, pain control strategy, self‑efficacy for pain control, exercise, and functional activities in a cohort of Iranian women. Subjects and Methods:In total, 150 women with advanced knee OA, candidates for arthroplasty in Tabriz, in the Northwest of Iran were enrolled into the study. A convenience sampling method was used, and data was collected using demographic form, short‑form McGill pain questionnaire, pain self‑efficacy questionnaire, self‑efficacy for exercise, and functional activities scales. Results: The present pain intensity of 74.7% of women was described as excruciating with mean (±SD) score 9.58 (±0.77) in the visual analogue scale. The majority of the women had a low self‑efficacy for pain, exercise, and functional activities with means of 31.8, 17.28, and 57.63 respectively. There was a significant inverse relationship between sensory and affective components of pain and self‑efficacy for pain control and functional activities (P < 0.001). The sensory and affective components of pain was related to age (P < 0.05), pain control self‑efficacy (P < 0.01), and BMI (P < 0.05). A great majority of the women (79.33%) used complementary medicine (CM) for pain management. Those who used CM reported lower pain and higher self‑efficacy (P < 0.01). Conclusion: The findings of this study suggest that life style modification and pain management education of women with OA and nurses on non‑pharmacological interventions as well as integration of these into nursing care is essential. |
