主 题:Drug Therapy Hypertension Measure Medication Adherence Scale
摘 要:A 32-Item Japanese Medication Adherence Scale had been developed as a tool for evaluating the medication-taking behavior of hypertensive patients and predicting therapeutic efficacy, and an Internet survey of 990 hypertensive patients throughout Japan was performed. As a result, factor 1 “Expectation of pharmacological efficacy (9 items), factor 2 “Motivation to be self-controlled in taking medication (6 items), and factor 3 “Negative feelings about taking medication (4 items) were identified, comprising a total of 19 items. The scale was highly reliable. Because it proved capable of discriminating between the 2 groups with different medication-taking status and blood pressure, its validity had also been confirmed.
