Measures of adherence to therapy in patients with osteoporosisReview articles
Poor adherence to therapy is a widespread problem in the treatment of chronic diseases, particularly asymptomatic conditions. This risk may be eliminated, or at least controlled, by measuring the adherence. There are several methods which can evaluate objective and subjective parameters of the patient's approach to a treatment plan. Adherence to the therapy of osteoporosis is usually measured by indirect methods. Self-reports and pill counts, belonging to the simplest instruments, are easily applicable in clinical practice but there is a high risk of overestimation of the adherence. In the research of adherence to osteoporosis treatment, specific questionnaires on this metabolic disease seem to be very promising. Electronic monitoring is frequently considered a reference standard for indirect methods. Particularly the Medication Event Monitoring System can precisely assess adherence to current therapy by monitoring dates and times of drug administration. This has been successfully used, for example, in specific dosage regimes in antiresorptive therapy for osteoporosis. Pr ment of persistence. The article provides a description of the above indire in measuring adherence to the therapy of osteoporosis.
