A Self-Management Intervention for Veterans With Hepatitis C
In Brief
A clinical study evaluating Self-Management Workshop and Information Only for Hepatitis C and Chronic Disease. Completed, enrolled 134 participants across 1 site.
Detailed Summary
The objective of this study is to compare the efficacy of a 6-session hepatitis C self-management workshop to a hepatitis C self-management self-study program. Both interventions are designed to help people with hepatitis C learn to actively self-manage their chronic HCV infection, and ultimately, to improve health outcomes for veterans with HCV who are not receiving Interferon-based treatment. Participants complete a total of four assessments. The fourth assessment, a 12-18 month assessment is an approved addition to the original study design
