Abstract:

A cleft palate team's prescribed regimen requires prompt and continued compliance to meet the objectives of the clinical management and to achieve the best clinical results for the patient. In a previous study (Paynter et al., 1990), we reported an overall compliance rate of 64% for patients seen by a cleft palate team during its first 8 years of operation. After the study, changes in the team's operational procedures were made in an attempt to provide better service, improve patient compliance, and improve the efficiency of the clinic. The purposes of the current clinical investigation were t

Abstract:

Background: Patient compliance with regimens is one of the most researched and least-understood behavioral concerns in the healthcare profession due to the many meanings employed in multidiscipline over time.

Medication noncompliance is a pervasive problem resulting in significant morbidity and mortality. There are many terms used to describe medication-taking behavior including compliance, adherence, intelligent compliance, and drug forgiveness.

Problems identified include the patient’s failing to initiate therapy, under using or overusing a drug, stopping a drug too soon, and mistiming or skipping doses. Adherence to medications is a complex health behavior. There are m

Living with heart failure (HF) means living with a chronic illness characterized by periods of acute decompensation alternating with periods of relative stability. Improved medical care for patients with cardiovascular diseases, coupled with the aging of the populations in the developed world, has resulted in a steadily increasing prevalence of HF. Rehospitalization rates are high for this patient population. In 20–64% of the cases, poor compliance by patients with the prescribed HF treatment is a contributing factor to hospitalization. This article uses a review of the literature on HF non-co

Abstract:

Asthma is commonly controllable but often neglected disease associated with huge burden to family and society. It is important to obtain optimal control to improve quality of life in asthmatics. The suboptimal control of disease occurs due to very poor adherence to aerosol therapy. Objective is to study the aerosol therapy compliance in bronchial asthmatics and the factors responsible for non compliance of aerosol therapy and effect of repeated health education on compliance. It is a prospective study where patient was followed up monthly for three months for collecting data and checking the c

Abstract:

This comprehensive review compares novel vaccine therapies to conventional treatments for diabetes management, examining efficacy, safety, cost-effectiveness, and patient compliance. Conventional treatments (insulin, oral medications, lifestyle modifications) have limitations, such as hypoglycemic and decreased adherence. Vaccine therapies (T-cell targeted, peptide-based, DNA vaccines) demonstrate potential benefits, including improved glycemic control, reduced hypoglycemia, and enhanced patient compliance. Comparative analysis reveals vaccine therapies exhibit comparable or superior efficacy

Abstract:

Background: Tuberculosis (TB) is an infectious disease caused by bacteria Mycobacterium tuberculosis. TB treatment takes a long time, namely 6-9 months, so patient compliance in undergoing treatment is an important factor for the success of treatment. Several factors that can influence TB patient compliance include: drug side effects, distance from home to health facilities, and economic constraints. Use of information technology, such as short message service (SMS), can be an alternative to increase TB patient compliance. SMS is a communication technology that is affordable and easy to use, s

Abstract:

The indices of patients’ health outcomes have historically included recurrence of symptoms, number of emergency visits, hospitalization and re-admission rates, morbidity, and mortality. As significant healthcare players, providers can influence these events, including the timeliness of diagnosis and disease management, the cost of treatment, access to health insurance, and medication adherence. Beyond healthcare availability and access, the ability of patients to adhere to providers’ treatment recommendations goes a long way to serve as a recipe for improving patient outcomes.

Pain is a public health problem with profound physical, emotional, and societal costs. Conventional oral analgaesics are usually the first treatment, which is cost-effective and relatively safe. However, medication noncompliance is a serious healthcare concern. Medication noncompliance has remained a significant challenge despite considerable efforts to improve patient compliance. Therefore, a study was done to assess medication compliance at a Pain Clinic in a tertiary hospital in Malaysia. The study period was from December 2019 to January 2020.
