Association between cognitive impairment and medication adherence score, including psychological aspects in older patients with cardiovascular disease

Open access

Abstract

• Cognitive impairment lead to decreased medication adherence scores. • “Collaboration with healthcare providers” and “willingness to access and use information on medication” were determinants. • Communication and personalized information about prescribed medications is critical. This study examined the association between cognitive impairment and medication adherence scores, including psychological aspects, in older patients with cardiovascular disease. This observational study included 163 older patients hospitalized for cardiovascular disease (median age: 74 years; men, 61 %). Medication adherence at discharge was evaluated using a 12-item scale across four domains: medication compliance, collaboration with healthcare providers, willingness to access and use information on medication, and acceptance of medication. Cognitive impairment was defined as a score of ≤ 9 points in the rapid dementia screening test. Patients with cognitive impairment showed lower medication adherence scores than those without ( p < 0.001) after adjusting for potential confounders. Significant differences occurred in the scores of “collaboration with healthcare providers” and “willingness to access and use information on medication”. Healthcare providers should tailor medication information sharing according to the patients’ health condition and cognitive function.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
