Abstract

Compliance and adherence with treatment in chronic iseases including glaucoma is crucial for successful treatment outcomes to minimize disease progression. Medication compliance and adherence in glaucoma, has been measured using a variety of methods and high noncompliance and nonadherence rates commonly have been reported. It is easy for physicians to mistake either medication noncompliance or lack of adherence with poor efficacy. Such errors result in unnecessary control visits, changes in a patient's therapeutic regimen or in surgery. Clinicians should identify patients who are at risk for medication underuse and develop strategies for minimizing it. Greater awareness by the physician of the widespread nature of nonadherence is a very important component of patient care. Aim of this review is to summarize researches published on compliance, adherence and persistency in patients with glaucoma and to suggest approaches ophthalmologists to accurately assess patient compliance and persistency to improve these issues.

Özet

Tedaviye uyum ve bağlılık, glokom dahil tüm kronik hastalıkların başarılı bir biçimde tedavi edilerek progresyonun yavaşlatılabilmesi için son derece önemlidir. Bugüne kadar değişik yöntemlerle gerçekleştirilmiş pek çok araştırma göstermektedir ki, glokom hastalarının önemli bir kısmı tedavilerini olması gerektiği şekilde uygulayamamaktadır. Tedaviye uyum ve bağlılığın kötü olması olgunun tıbbi tedaviye dirençli olduğu şeklinde yorumlanmasına sebep olabilir. Böyle bir yanlışlık, gereksiz ilaç değişimlerine, sık kontrol muayenelere ve cerrahi yöntemlere başvurulmasına neden olabilmektedir. Hekim, ilaçlarını düzenli kullanmayan hastalarını tespit etmek ve bu durumu ortadan kaldırmak için çeşitli stratejiler uygulamalıdır. Hekimlerin tedaviye olan uyum ve bağlılık probleminin varlığından ve yaygınlığından haberdar olmaları, hastaların takiplerinde son derece önemlidir. Bu makalenin amacı glokomda tedaviye uyum, bağlılık ve devamlılık ile ilgili yayınlanmış çalışmaları özetlemek, bu çalışmalardan elde edilen sonuçların ışığı altında göz hekimlerine hastalarının uyum ve bağlılıklarını değerlendirme ve iyileştirme konularında tavsiyelerde bulunmaktır.
