Consideration of coping strategies for patients suffering from systemic lupus erythematosus: reflection for a personalised practice of patient education.

CONCLUSIONS: Patients' knowledge is not the only parameter to consider for a personalised educational therapy: psychological parameters such as coping must also be considered to ensure the best possible quality of life. For educational therapy purposes, it is important not to group patients with the same coping style; heterogenous groups will enable patients to share their experiences and learn from the coping strategies of others.
