The Application of Motivational Interviewing in the Treatment of Chronic Diseases | Chapter 2 | Disease and Health: Research Developments Vol. 5

Background: Patients with chronic diseases are prone to negative emotions such as anxiety and depression, which reduce treatment compliance and hinder physical recovery. Motivational interviewing is a new psychotherapy that is becoming increasingly mature in the treatment of chronic diseases.

Objective: The objective of the study is to understand the current research and application status of motivational interviewing in the treatment of chronic diseases. On this basis, the shortcomings are pointed out and the research prospects are proposed.

Methods: The literature retrieval method was used to review empirical papers published in English or Chinese in the past 20 years in PubMed, Google Scholar, CNKI, and the Wanfang database.

Results: Thirty-three articles were included. Previous studies have shown that MI has a positive effect on the condition, medication compliance, self-efficacy, and quality of life of patients with chronic diseases.

Conclusion: Improving the standardization of MI implementation procedures, strengthening the training and supervision of therapists, and improving the evaluation methods of intervention effects can help expand the application of MI in the treatment of chronic diseases.
