This study was conducted to determine factors associated with medication adherence in individuals diagnosed with schizophrenia....
A descriptive correlational research design was used. The study was completed with a total of 162 participants diagnosed with schizophrenia, between February-June 2021, at a Community Mental Health Ce...
The mean medication adherence score of individual diagnosed with schizophrenia indicated that more than half of the participants (52 %) had poor medication adherence. In individual diagnosed with schi...
Medication adherence in individuals with diagnosed schizophrenia may be multifactorial. Mental health professionals should consider associated factors and implement a personalized treatment plan in th...
Few studies have looked at the effect of an asthma exacerbation on asthma medication adherence....
To measure asthma medication adherence in the 12 months after an asthma exacerbation and the influence of care type (specialist vs primary care provider) as well as social economic status on adherence...
We measured portion of days covered (PDC) during the 12 months before and after an exacerbation in a cohort of patients with asthma who were aged 18 years and older. Subanalyses looked at PDC in those...
In a cohort of 1,697 patients, PDC improved significantly (from 0.44 to 0.53; P < .001) after an asthma exacerbation. Improvement in PDC was even greater (from 0.45 to 0.57; P < .001) if they had more...
An asthma exacerbation is associated with a significant and sustained effect on medication adherence....
This study was aimed at assessing the adherence and incorrect drug intake associated with changes in the dosing schedule of raltegravir, the first integrase strand transfer inhibitor, from 400 mg twic...
Poor adherence habits are key contributors to nonadherence but there are few clinically feasible methods for evaluating adherence habits, particularly for youths with chronic kidney disease (CKD). Thi...
Participants (ages 11-21 years) were recruited from a pediatric nephrology clinic as part of a larger study. Participants' daily objective antihypertensive medication adherence was measured with an el...
Clear qualitative differences emerged in how participants with high-medium adherence (80-100%) discussed adherence habits compared to participants with low adherence (0-79%). Participants with high-me...
Evaluating patient responses to questions about adherence habits may uncover challenges with adherence habit formation, provide direction for habit-strengthening intervention focused on developing aut...
