dc.description.abstractBackgroundFamilial Mediterranean Fever (FMF) is an auto inflammatory disease often accompanied by fever and serositis attacks in which peritoneum, pleura, synovium, and rarely pericardium are spared. In the study, the effects of self-efficacy in managing the disease and disease adaptation levels of FMF patients on satisfaction with life were examined.MethodsThis observational cross-sectional study was conducted using a web-based questionnaire sent via Facebook and Instagram FMF groups between February 1, 2024 and April 25, 2024. The population of this study consisted of patients diagnosed with FMF at least 1 year ago in T & uuml;rkiye.FindingsThe mean self-efficacy score of FMF patients in managing chronic diseases was found to be 4.67. According to the results of the study, physical adaptation was determined to be the highest adaptation in FMF patients. This is followed by psychological adaptation and social adaptation. In general, the scores the patients obtained regarding disease adaptation and its sub-dimensions were found to be close to the average value. The satisfaction with life scores of the patients were found to be below the average.ConclusionThis study revealed that the self-efficacy and disease adaptation levels of FMF patients in T & uuml;rkiye affect their satisfaction with life.
