  1. Motivational Interviewing – How to enhance lifestyle changes in General Practice Professor Eivind Meland and Associate Professor Thomas Mildestvedt Section for General Practice Department of Public Health and Primary Health Care University of Bergen

  2. The Krokeide Centre Heart Rehabilitation Study

  3. Objectives of the study • Compare an individualised, autonomy supportive and cognitive behavioural intervention (elements from MI) with “business as usual” in a RCT • Identify predictors of lifestyle changes during two years follow up.

  4. Main results from the study • No significant between group differences neither in short nor longterm follow up • Elements from MI (self-efficacy and autonomous motivation) seem important especially for longterm maintenance of health behaviour change

  5. NEJM 2007 Schroeder

  6. Listen to Julian Tudor Heart! • Julian T Heart: The social inequalities and the undue social selectiveness of the fitness-movement are strong arguments to support proactive care in clinical practice (1990) • Eivind Meland: The radical position from the seventies with solidarity with the oppressed and socially less well off groups has been replaced by liberal indifference. This indifference is camouflaged as autonomy support and anti-medicalisation efforts. Solidarity in our societies is under threat. We have to restore it! (2009)

  7. Listen to … • Roll up your sleeves! We have to • Increase preventive and health promotive efforts in our practices • Apply more effective counselling methods in clinical practice, such as motivational interviewing

  8. Reactions from the audience • We are not interested in the contra-arguments! • How did you react? • Why did you react? • In what way could the experience promote changes in your preventive efforts? • In what way did the experience prevent changes?

  9. Motivational interviewing (MI) • Origins in addictions field • Importance of interaction between clinicians and patients • Confrontation can lead to resistance • Inappropriate assumptions about change • Client must/wants change and change must happen now

  10. Motivational interviewing (2) • Patient centred approach • Motivation –readiness for change • Directive - help patients explore and resolve their ambivalence

  11. Stages of change

  12. Motivational interviewing (3) • Five key principles • Express empathy • Develop discrepancy • Avoid argumentation • Roll with resistance • Support self-efficacy Miller & Rollnick, 1991

  13. MI in healthcare settings • MI applied to: • different lifestyle behaviours • different patient populations

  14. Discussion in groups of 3 • How do you feel about increasing your efforts for preventive health promoting in your practice? • Explore ambivalence

  15. Promoting lifestyle changes • Changing a lifestyle is often a long process • The counsellor can facilitate steps towards maintained change • Ambivalence is normal

  16. Exercise in triads: • Counsellor, ”client” and observer • Decide who is who

  17. Readiness exercise • Think of an area of life not to personal that you would like to change but you have ambivalent feelings about • Share this with your neighbour • The listeners task is to understand the dilemma without giving any advice

  18. The observers’ tasks • Note how much the client is verbally active • Note ”change talk” from the client • Statements about intentions for, preparation for or accomplishment of changes • Note the ”precursors” of change talk • Verbal or non-verbal behaviour from the counsellor prior to change talk

  19. Readiness exerciseOptional MI questions • Why would you make this change? what are the best reasons to change? • How could you succeed? • What do you think you will do? (If appropriate)

  20. Video demonstration of promoting readiness • Cholesterol and hypertension in a clinical setting

  21. Tensions and conflicts • Is the era of patient centredness over? • Patient centredness confused with servility under consumers in a health marked? • Time for introducing doctoring as leadership and professional authority (not confuse it with paternalistic and authoritary medicine)?

  22. The tension between advice and exploration of the pts’ agenda Advice Authoritary and paternalistic medicine Professional authority and mutual respect in the consultation Consumer servility or ”soft manipulation” Indifference or ignorance Explore
