Description
Zhaojie Wang and Jing Pang evaluate in 2026 a family collaboration care model for older patients with drug-resistant tuberculosis of the lungs. Treatment is long and demanding, and how patients understand their illness shapes whether they persist. Bringing family into nursing care may strengthen that understanding and daily self-management.
Records from a Henan chest hospital covered 57 elderly patients treated between 2022 and 2024, split between standard and family-collaboration care. The family group reported healthier illness perceptions, clearly higher self-management scores, and better quality of life in every domain. Effect sizes were large, supporting family involvement in resistant tuberculosis care.
