Adolescents with moyamoya disease experience difficulties related to various psychological challenges and tasks during development, in addition to the clinical symptoms and experiences related to moyamoya disease treatment, all of which affect their quality of life. Therefore, interventions are needed to help adolescents with moyamoya disease fully understand the disease and improve their quality of life through effective stress management. Hence, we considered the salutogenesis theory proposed by Antonovsky as a theoretical basis for developing interventions for adolescents with moyamoya disease [Accordingly, we developed and applied a “Salutogenesis Program for Adolescents with Moyamoya Disease” to improve the generalized resistance resources and sense of coherence (SOC) in adolescents with moyamoya and evaluated the effectiveness of the program.
