Interventions to Improve Adherence to Self-administered Medications for Chronic Diseases in the United States (2012, background): “In the United States, it is estimated to cause approximately 125 000 deaths, at least 10% of hospitalizations (5), and a substantial increase in morbidity and mortality (11, 12).”
The challenge of patient adherence (2005, methodology): “Currently, ongoing meta-analytic studies at the University of California, Riverside, USA, are beginning to identify a number of stable and consistent factors that affect patient adherence (DiMatteo 2004a, 2004c; DiMatteo et al 2000, 2002).”
Relationship between adherence to evidence-based pharmacotherapy and long-term mortality after acute myocardial infarction. (2007, methodology): “Third, we used prescriptions to estimate adherence and had no information on actual medication adherence or other healthy lifestyle behaviors (eg, smoking cessation, diet, and physical activity).(4,34,35) Nonetheless, our measure of adherence is consistent with those used in other studies,(36) has b”
Interventions to enhance medication adherence in chronic medical conditions: a systematic review. (2007, background): “05; (5) emergency department visits (median, range): I = 0 (1-7), C = 0 (1-7), = 0, P = NS (1) None, 0.”
Self-report measures of medication adherence behavior: recommendations on optimal use (2015, background): “Acrossmany chronicmedical conditions, adherence has been associated with positive clinical outcomes including improved disease control, reduced symptoms, and decreased complications, hospitalization, and mortality [13–20].”
National Lipid Association Recommendations for Patient-Centered Management of Dyslipidemia: Part 2. (2015, background): “Moreover, research findings suggest that improved selfmanagement of chronic diseases results in an approximate cost-to-savings ratio of 1:10.(768,773)”
Variations in Patients’ Adherence to Medical Recommendations: A Quantitative Review of 50 Years of Research (2004, methodology): “relationship varies with the regimens, measurements, and diseases studied.(12)”
Medication Adherence Measures: An Overview (2015, background): “Furthermore, these measures also assume that the medication is taken exactly as prescribed [27].”
The Common-Sense Model of Self-Regulation (CSM): a dynamic framework for understanding illness self-management (2016, positive): “Patients will not take drugs unless they perceive a need to do so, particularly when asymptomatic (DiMatteo et al., 2002; Haynes et al., 2008).”
Social support and patient adherence to medical treatment: a meta-analysis. (2004, background): “Repeated crosschecking of references within the larger adherence meta-analysis project of which this study is a part suggests that the vast majority, if not all, of the articles meeting the criteria for inclusion were found (see also, DiMatteo, 2004; DiMatteo et al., 2000, 2002).”
