Abstract:

Background Falls in older people result in harm for individuals and are a major public health problem, but there is little published data on the recording and incidence of falls seen in primary care, with which to consider the implications of recent policy initiatives. A range of factors contribute to falls risk. Amongst these, the role of some medications is well established, but the evidence base regarding the effects of some of the most commonly prescribed medications remains meagre and inconsistent. Aims The project aims to quantify the overall incidence and distribution of recorded falls

<p> Hypertension (HTN) prevalence in African Americans contribute to higher rates of disabilities and deaths from stroke, myocardial infarction, and end stage renal disease than all other racial groups in the United States. The major reason documented for these poor health outcomes is related to lower HTN control rates among African Americans compared to other racial/ethnic groups. Though overall HTN awareness, pharmacological treatments and control have significantly improved for all populations, studies found that rates of HTN control and adherence with anti-hypertensive medications are l

Abstract:

The cost of healthcare in the United States has increased due to growing numbers of patients who live with chronic health problems, such as heart disease. The cost of healthcare is compounded by the cost in terms of complications of cardiovascular disease secondary to medication non-adherence. Education about medication use and adherence, safety, and side effects was needed for patients in a cardiovascular unit to improve adherence to medications as prescribed. Results of a health care provider (HCP) and nursing staff needs assessment provided by the site showed the need for improved cardiovas

Abstract:

Introduction: Medication adherence is vital to ensuring optimal patient outcomes, particularly amongst older adults prescribed polypharmacy. However, complex interventions aimed at improving adherence have shown only limited effectiveness. To maximise effectiveness, the Medical Research Council (MRC) supports the use of both evidence and theory in developing interventions. Feasibility and pilot testing is then recommended to optimise interventions in advance of definitive trials. The aim of this research was to develop a novel complex intervention (using evidence and theory) to improve adheren

Failure by the patient to collect TTO medication might be intentional or may indicate a lack of appropriate structures and procedures at the hospital to provide such care on discharge, and/or failure by the health care professionals to reach concordance with the patient to ensure that he/she continues to take medications as prescribed.

This thesis looks at the lived experiences of people with schizophrenia who are prescribed the newer atypical as opposed to the older forms of typical antipsychotic medication. The older (typical) neuroleptic forms of medication have been shown to produce unpleasant side-effects that cause severe problems with everyday functioning and thus affect patients’ quality of life. Existing research has shown that people with a diagnosis of schizophrenia are excluded from society and are often labelled deviant and suffer from discrimination.

Abstract:

Patient nonadherence to medication harms patient outcomes and raises costs via wasted and unnecessary treatment (Osterberg and Blaschke, 2005). However, current adherence measures are far from optimal (Vitolins et al., 2000), and adherence enhancing interventions rarely successful (Haynes et al., 2008). This may be a reflection of inadequate patient targeting and adherence measurement. This thesis describes the development of questionnaires intended to be clinically useful by predicting patient risk of nonadherence.
