ObjectiveTo analyze the influence factors of the stable angina pectoris patients' medication compliance based on health belief model. MethodsFrom January to December, 2013, 107 patients with stable angina pectoris were interviewed using the self-design questionnaires, and multiple stepwise linear regression statistical was used to analyze. ResultsThe influence factors of increasing medication compliance were as follows:"myocardial infarction can lead to death", "patients with stable angina pectoris may suffer a sudden myocardial infarction", "over the past year the number of the angina pectoris", "standard treatment is good for prevention of myocardial infarction", "suffering myocardial infarction, even if not dying, there is no more chance to live", "take medicine on time can get family's praise", and "among the people that I know there are patients who die of myocardial infarction". The partial regression coefficients were 0.245, 0.251, 0.248, 0.099, 0.234, 0.162, 0.095, respectively; while "worry about side effects of the drugs", "can't afford the medicine", the partial regression coefficients were -0.164 and -0.114. ConclusionHealth belief model is helpful for general practitioners to evaluate the effect factors of medication compliance on stable angina pectoris.
Objective To explore the hormone medication compliance in children with chronic kidney disease (CKD) and analyze its influencing factors. Methods Between May and December 2013, 96 children were investigated by questionnaires about medication compliance when they were out of the hospital. Then we analyzed the influencing factors for medication compliance. All the data were analyzed by SPSS 19.0 software. Results Of these 96 children, medication nonadherence accounted for 52% (50). The main guardian, educational level of the father, educational level of the mother, residence, duration of illness, time of hospitalization, and understanding of the treatment plan played significant roles in causing different medication compliance among these children (P＜0.05). Logistic regression analysis showed that duration of illness [OR=2.204, 95%CI (1.253, 3.875), P=0.006], residence [OR=2.615, 95%CI (1.0 23, 6.687), P=0.045] and the mother’s educational level [OR=0.147, 95%CI (0.028, 0.788), P=0.025] were the independent factors for medication compliance. Conclusions According to the survey, hormone medication compliance in children with chronic kidney disease is not satisfying. We should strengthen the health education in children and their parents, and adopt specific interventions to enhance the medication compliance so as to effectively control the disease and delay the progression.
Objective To investigate the difference in first onset age, family history and medication compliance between male and female patients with schizophrenia in communities. Methods We used self-designed questionnaire to survey and analyze 372 cases of schizophrenia between June to August 2014. Results There were no significant differences between male and female schizophrenic patients in the family history, personality before the disease, education level, age, and the onset type and disease course (P > 0.05). The first onset age of male patients [(24.92±8.22) years] was significantly earlier than female patients [(27.02±11.28) years] and the difference was statistically significant (P < 0.05). The number of unmarried male patients (115, 58.97%) was significantly more than unmarried females (81, 45.76%) and the difference was statistically significant (P < 0.05). The full medication compliance rate of female patients (127, 71.75%) was significantly better than that of male patients (115, 58.97%) (P < 0.05). Conclusion The first onset age, marital status and medication compliance are significantly different between the two genders of patients with schizophrenia, which indicates that prevention, treatment and recovery measures for male and female patients should be differentiated.
ObjectiveTo systematically review the influence of health education on medicine-taking compliance of hypertensive patients, so as to provide scientific evidence for health decision-making. MethodsLiterature search was performed in CBM, CNKI, WanFang Data and VIP databases to collect randomized controlled trials (RCTs) published between 1998 and 2013 concerning the effect of health education on medicine-taking compliance of hypertensive patients. Two reviewers independently screened the literature according to the inclusion and exclusion criteria, extracted the data, assessed the methodological quality of included studies, and then conducted Bayesian meta-analysis using WinBUGS 14 software after heterogeneity-test by using Stata 10.0 software. ResultsA total of 19 RCTs involving 3 751 participants were included. The results of Bayesian meta-analysis showed that the health education group was superior to the control group in medicine-taking compliance with a significant difference (OR=4.46, 95%CI 3.698 to 5.358). ConclusionHealth education could enhance the medicine-taking compliance of Chinese hypertension patients significantly.
ObjectiveTo systematically evaluate the effects of cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) on improving depression, medication adherence and quality of life in people living with HIV/AIDS (PLHIV). MethodsWe searched The Cochrane Library (Issue 4, 2013), Ovid-JBI, PubMed, EMbase, PsycARTICLES, CBM and CNKI to collect randomized controlled trials (RCTs) on improving depression, medication adherence and quality of life in PLHIV from the establishment dates to April 30th 2013. Two reviewers independently screened literature according to the inclusion and exclusion criteria, extracted data, and assessed methodological quality. Meta-analysis was conducted using RevMan 5.2. ResultsA total of 17 RCTs were included, involving 2 163 patients. The results of meta-analysis showed that CBT significantly improved PLHIV's depression (SMD=-0.26, 95%CI-0.41 to-0.10, P=0.001), and quality of life (SMD=-0.57, 95%CI-1.04 to-0.11, P=0.02) in 6 months. Meanwhile, CBT significantly improved PLHIV's medication adherence (WMD=3.98, 95%CI 1.67 to 6.30, P=0.000 8) in the long term. ConclusionCBT is efficacious in improving PLHIV's depression and quality of life in the short term, and improving medication adherence in the long term, compared to standard care.

Objective To analyze the risk factors of hypertension combined with cerebral hemorrhage. Methods From May 2015 to October 2016, 92 hypertension patients with cerebral hemorrhage (group A) were enrolled; simultaneously, 110 hypertension patients without cerebral hemorrhage (group B) were included. We analyzed retrospectively the clinical data of two groups and the risk factors of hypertension complicated with cerebral hemorrhage. Results The results of univariate analysis showed that the ratios of patients in group A with the following indexes, >65 years old, body mass index >30 kg/m2, >7-year smoking history, triglyceride level >1.7 mmol/L, cholesterol level >5.72 mmol/L, high density lipoprotein level >0.9 mmol/L, and bad medication compiance, were much more higher than those in group B (P<0.05). The rusults of multivariate analysis showed that smoking history, diabetes mellitus history, hypertension history, triglycerides level, cholesterol level, bad medication compliance were the risk factors of hypertension combined with cerebral hemorrhage (P<0.05). Conclusions The risk factors of hypertension combined with cerebral hemorrhage include smoking history, diabetes mellitus history, hypertension history, triglyceride level, cholesterol level, and medication compliance. We shoud pay more attention to these factors in clinical practice.
Objective To investigate the factors influencing the medication adherence among patients with diabetes signing family doctor service contract in Beijing urban areas, and provide the basis for improving the level of medication adherence. Methods A total of 320 patients with diabetes from four community health service centers in Beijing urban areas were selected to answer the questionnaires using convenient sampling from June to September 2015. Univariate analysis and binary logistic regression were used for the influencing factors analysis. Results A total of 320 questionnaires were distributed, and 317 valid questionnaires were recovered, in which the rate of high medication adherence was 54.6%. The results of logistic regression showed that the main impact factors on medication adherence were age [odds ratio (OR)=1.918, P=0.011)], degree of education (OR=2.462, P=0.008), knowledge related to diabetes (OR=1.773, P=0.027), adopting of family doctor service or not (OR=2.521, P=0.029) and social function status (P=0.003). Conclusions The family doctor service team should implement the practice of the family doctor service to ensure that the contracted residents can make full use of the family doctor services; and strengthen the follow-up and interventions for patients less aged or with low degree of education. For those with poor social function, more attention should be paid to their self-health management behavior to improve the level of patients’ compliance. As a result, the levels of blood glucose will be well controlled to reduce possibilities of complications and improve their health status and quality of life.
ObjectiveTo explore the influencing factors of medication compliance in drug-resistant pulmonary tuberculosis patients.MethodsUsing phenomenological research methods, a semi-structured in-depth interview was conducted on 19 inpatients with drug-resistant pulmonary tuberculosis admitted to the Drug-resistant Tuberculosis Department of Changsha Central Hospital between April and August 2019, and the data were coded, analyzed, sorted out, summarized, and extracted.ResultsThe influencing factors of medication compliance in patients with drug-resistant pulmonary tuberculosis could be divided into two categories: promoting factors and hindering factors. The promoting factors included the patient’s own factors (emphasis on medication therapy, desire for medication knowledge, and efforts to solve medication difficulties) and social factors (family support). The hindering factors included the patient’s own factors (lack of knowledge about tuberculosis, and severe negative emotions), drug treatment factors (fear of adverse drug reactions, and complicated medication plans), and social factors (increased financial burden).ConclusionsDrug compliance of patients with drug-resistant pulmonary tuberculosis is affected by patients, family members, medical staff and social environment. Nursing staff should develop personalized drug plan to improve the patients’ drug compliance.
