▼ Background: The number of patients with chronic cardiovascular diseases is increasing. Nurses frequently coach these patients, with medication as an important topic. Providing patients with information can improve satisfaction, which can result in higher medication adherence. The information currently given, may not be in accordance with patients’ needs. Aim: To gain insight in the information need concerning medication of patients with chronic cardiovascular diseases who are coached by nurses at an outpatient clinic of a general hospital. Research questions: 1)What is the satisfaction of patients with provided information? 2)What is the extent of information desired? 3)How and by whom should information be presented? Method: A descriptive, cross-sectional study. Participants were recruited through convenience sampling, at one out-patient clinic of a Dutch general hospital. Participants were diagnosed with coronary heart disease, cerebrovascular disease or peripheral arterial disease in the last year, aged ≥ 18 years and using ≥ one cardiovascular medication(s). The ‘Satisfaction with Information about Medicines Scale’ and the ‘Extent of Information Desired Scale’ were used to answer the questions. Results: A sample of 36 patients was available. Twenty-five patients participated, 48% was non-satisfied with provided information and about 50% was tended to want more information. The hospital (doctor) and the general practitioner were preferred to present information. Conclusion: Information must be improved to reach higher satisfaction rates. The extent of information and the preferred presentation differed within the population and confirmed that needs are a personally issue. More cooperation among healthcare workers and a constant dialogue with patients is recommended. Recommendations: Research is recommend to investigate the information need after the first year of sickness and of patients with different cardiovascular diseases. The use of measurement scales, to describe individual needs, can be investigated. Advisors/Committee Members: Sol, B.G.M..

SAMMANFATTNING Bakgrund: Antipsykotika utgör grunden i behandling av psykossjukdomar. Bristande följsamhet till läkemedelsbehandlingen är dock vanligt förekommande och en stor anledning till att patienter återinsjuknar i psykos och behöver vårdas inom slutenvård. Syfte: Dels att beskriva hur patienter som vårdas inom sluten psykiatrisk psykosvård uppfattar läkemedelsadministrering och dels att beskriva om patienterna uppfattar att sjuksköterskors bemötande i samband med läkemedelsadministrering har betydelse för deras inställning till att medicinera. Metod: Kvalitativ ansats. Intervjustudie med fenomenografi som metod i datainsamling och analys. Resultat: Tio beskrivningskategorier identifierades: Läkemedel befogat och bra, tar läkemedel trots ambivalens/motstånd, läkemedelsadministrationen – ett odramatiskt moment, tvångsmedicinering, behov av information om läkemedel, att vilja ha kontroll eller överlåta ansvar, en stressig situation, belöning för medverkan i medicinering, bemötandet spelar ingen roll och bemötandet spelar stor/viss roll. Slutsats: Patienter som vårdas inom sluten psykiatrisk psykosvård uppfattar medicinering med antipsykotika och momentet läkemedelsadministration olika. Dessa individuella uppfattningar skulle troligtvis kunna identifieras om rutiner för samtal med patienter kring dessa frågor utarbetas på avdelningar där sådan vård bedrivs. Sannolikheten för att frivilliga lösningar och en bättre individuellt anpassad vård lättare skulle kunna bedrivas borde då öka. Strävan måste vara att så långt det är möjligt undvika tvångsmedicinering och situationer och bemötande som i denna studie identifierats som mindre positiva då de kan utgöra en risk att patienter blir negativt inställda till att medicinera. Ambitionen måste vara att hitta arbetssätt som syftar till långvarig följsamhet.

ABSTRACT Background: Antipsychotics are the basis of the treatment of psychotic illnesses. Lack of adherence to medication is common and a major reason why patients recurrence of psychosis and need to be cared for in hospital. Purpose: To describe how patients with psychosis, cared for in inpatient psychiatric wards, understand medication administration and also to describe if the patients perceive that nurses treatment in the moment of medication administration has an impact on their attitudes to medicate. Method: Qualitative approach. An interview study with phenomenography as a method of data collection and analysis. Results: Ten categories were identified: medicines justified and well, take medicine despite ambivalence/resistance, administration of medicine – an undramatic moment, coerced medication, need for information about medicines, want to have control or assign responsibility, a stressful situation, reward for participation in the medication, treatment don´t matter and treatment play a major/some…

▼ The purpose of this study was to determine if selected smartphone applications could improve medication adherence in women who live with unstable high blood pressure. Participants in this study were African American and at least 18 years of age, who sought treatment for unstable high blood pressure in Harris, Fort Bend, or Waller counties in Texas. The research question addressed in this study was, “Is there a difference in medication adherence for African American women diagnosed with unstable high blood pressure from a community health clinic setting who monitor their blood pressure daily and use the OnTimeRx® smartphone application versus those who use the Omron BP786 monitor?” The theoretical framework for this two-group, posttest only, randomized control trial was an integration of the Technology Acceptance Model, Health Beliefs Model, and Bandura’s Self-Efficacy Theory. The Stroop Color and Word Test was administered pretest to screen for cognitive deficits that may interfere with the participants’ ability to operate the equipment that was used in this research study. After achieving t-scores of 30 in all three test areas, participants were consented and randomized into one of two study conditions, the control or treatment group. Instructions on the operation of the equipment and software applications were made applicable to the participant’s treatment condition. Throughout the study, all participants were contacted on a weekly basis for follow-up and to answer study-related questions. Handouts were provided as a secondary measure to augment verbal instructions. Medication adherence was measured, posttest, with the Morisky Medication Adherence Scale-8. This posttest was administered after the 67 study participants completed 28 days of the study and submitted their blood-pressure values to the primary investigator. The treatment group demonstrated significantly better medication adherence than the control group (Mann-Whitney U=393, p-value=0.037). These findings suggested smartphone technology can have a positive influence on patients with unstable high blood pressure. Advisors/Committee Members: DelloStritto, Rita A. (advisor), Langford, Rae W. (committee member), Young, Elizabeth Anne (committee member).

▼ BACKGROUND: Chronic pain patients who are treated through an interdisciplinary treatment program have shown to report less symptoms of pain by a substantial degree. (Gatchel & Okifuji, 2006) Aspects of the Biopsychosocial Model such as physical and mental health, as well as appropriate medication adherence, must be considered for treatment. This study attempts to reinforce the clinical utility of the Biopsychosocial model by illustrating differences in self-perceived physical and mental health status. Subsequently, we hope to identify the influence of mental vs. physical health on pain-behaviors. Overall we hope to find a correlation between a patient’s self-reported health, using the Global Health Status PROMIS, and predicting their likelihood to abuse prescription pain medication, as measured through the PMQ (Pain Medication Questionnaire). Successively, clinicians can target the endorsement of poor mental health and/or poor physical health as a distinct concern in reducing pain behaviors such as prescription misuse. SUBJECTS: The final sample included data from males and females evaluated for the Interdisciplinary Pain Program at the McDermott Pain Clinic at UT Southwestern Medical center. Participants who were not chosen to participate in the IPP were still included in the data set. As the McDermott Pain Clinic does not typically provide care for children and adolescents (<18 years), children and adolescents were excluded from the present study. The test groups will consist of participants between 18 and 90 years of age as referred to the program by psychologists, Dr. Travis Whitfill and Dr. Richard Robinson of UT Southwestern and capable of providing informed consent, able to read and speak English, experiencing non-malignant pain-related problems, and willing to allow access to their electronic medical records. METHOD: Participants were administered a battery of assessments including the Pain Medication Questionnaire, Global Health Status PROMIS and other established measures of health and pain-related outcomes (e.g., SF-36, PROMIS pain-related measures) at baseline RESULTS: The results in the current study suggest that the PROMIS mental health score is a significant predictor in examining the likelihood for prescription pain medication misuse. Although the predictor variables of PROMIS physical health, age and gender improved the overall variance of the model when examined as single predictors they were shown not to be significant. The first hypothesis was not supported as shown by the weak linearity in the scatter plots of PROMIS physical and PROMIS mental health scores. Surprisingly, the strength of the relationship of physical and mental health scores was not significantly correlated despite support in the literature; however, this may be due to sampling limitations. The second hypothesis was supported through findings that suggest PROMIS mental health score is a strong predictor of participants’ PMQ score. Although PROMIS physical, age and gender improved the overall fit of the model their p values… Advisors/Committee Members: Gatchel, Robert J., Noe, Carl, Robinson, Richard C..

▼ Metformin is an old drug which is widely prescribed for the treatment of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). It is recommended as the first line oral anti-hyperglycaemic agent in Australia, United States and most European countries. It reduces haemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) by 10-20 mmol/mol (approximately 1-2%), and does not cause weight gain or hypoglycaemia. Metformin is well tolerated in most patients and has potential clinical advantages in patients with cardiovascular disease. The clinical conundrum facing practitioners while prescribing metformin is the potential risk of lactic acidosis, which although rare is often fatal. The current official product information recommends that metformin should be avoided or the dosages adjusted in patients with coexisting conditions that are likely to increase the risk of lactic acidosis. The safe use of metformin is still under debate, which may confuse practitioners when prescribing. Thus we aimed to provide more evidence regarding the current prescribing pattern and usage of metformin in Australia, and to explore the safety of metformin, especially its association with lactic acidosis. To achieve this aim, a number of complementary studies were conducted. We evaluated the prescribing pattern of metformin in patients who were admitted to a local hospital. The main finding of this study was that metformin was often being prescribed ‘inappropriately’ with regards to the restrictions listed in the official product information, in terms of usage with contraindications and in higher than recommended dosages. Similar results were observed when we reviewed the use of metformin in patients who lived in the community or aged care facilities receiving either Home Medicines Reviews or Residential Medication Management Reviews respectively. This study included more than 6,000 patients living across Australia. Our findings were consistent with those conducted in other countries. To evaluate the potential association between the use of metformin and lactic acidosis, we reviewed all the potential adverse drug reaction cases of metformin which were reported to the Therapeutic Goods Administration (TGA) of Australia from 1971 October 2014. A total of 152 potential cases of lactic acidosis associated with metformin were reported to the TGA. Approximately 75% of these cases had at least one clinical condition which itself might cause acidosis. The incidence of metformin-associated lactic acidosis (MALA) was estimated to be 2.3 (95%CI, 1.5-3.1) cases per 100,000 patient-years between 1997 and 2011. This relatively low incidence of MALA may be explained by the nature of spontaneous reports to the TGA. In addition, we reviewed the cases of patients who were admitted to a local hospital with lactic acidosis. Over a four-year period, 139 patients were identified using the digital medical record; only 23 patients had T2DM and 11 patients had been taking metformin. To further verify the low incidence of lactic acidosis in metformin users, we conducted a literature review on regular tested lactate level…

▼ Chronic respiratory diseases, such as asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) are significant and growing causes of morbidity and mortality worldwide. Poor disease control causes a substantial burden on patients, their families and society. Inhaler therapy is the most popular asthma and COPD treatment, but patients are compromised from inappropriate medication use. How to measure adherence to medication is a huge global problem. This thesis presents an original audio-based monitoring system for the pressurised metered-dose inhaler (pMDI), which has been developed to track and analyse the patient's dose delivery and inhaler technique. Prior to this study, there existed no automated system, based on acoustic monitoring, to track and assess pMDI inhaler technique. In terms of the hardware, this system combines accelerometer and acoustic sensors to enable a comprehensive assessment of the pMDI technique. For recognition of the breath phases, this research initially employed a hidden Markov model (HMM) with a Gaussian mixture model (GMM) to identify the phases of the breath sound. Ultimately a model was developed that concatenating two deep learning models (1-D ResNet18 and CLDNNs), which improved the recognition accuracy of acoustic signals degraded by noise. Respecting motion events, this thesis introduces a method based on a root mean square (RMS) framing window in combination with a rotation matrix to achieve robust shake detection and vertical holding detection, respectively. This thesis further describes a series of experiments. Experiment 1 to 3 was designed to characterise the strengths and weaknesses of the system, in which testing also provided useful information for further system development. The final experiment was a real-patient study that involved the recruitment of six patients diagnosed asthma or COPD. The system tracked their pMDI use for three weeks and established the deviations of pMDI usage and technique that existed between the patients' self-reports and independent electronic reports. Characterisation of these differences, and the ability of the system to not only to monitor adherence but also to identify usage failure points suggest that the monitoring system will, in the future, be a highly desirable component of digital healthcare provision.

▼ INTRODUCTION: Depression is common in people living with HIV (PLWH) and is a primary predictor of poor adherence to HAART medications which brings serious health consequences. PLWH also tend to experience more stress and trauma in their lifetime, all of which have been implicated in the onset and exacerbation of depression and poor health behavior performance. Positive and negative psychosocial variables and coping strategies have been associated with psychosocial functioning and health behaviors suggesting that understanding the ways in which PLWH cope is key to understanding depression and health behavior performance within this population. Different coping techniques work differently depending on gender and more research is needed to clarify which coping strategies work best for which gender. Additionally, despite the frequency with which HIV and depression co-occur, there is little research investigating factors that predict the onset of depression in this population. Lastly, the impact of medication adherence on depression represents a gap in the literature. OBJECTIVE: For the study detailed in this dissertation, we investigated the impact of nine different psychosocial variables and coping strategies on depressive symptoms and medication adherence. Additionally, we investigated how gender moderated these relationships. Lastly, we investigated the impact of medication adherence on depressive symptoms over time. METHODS: A total of 177 HIV positive participants were asked to fill out self-report measures assessing a variety of psychosocial factors potentially related to disease progression and quality of life with HIV. Follow-up assessments were conducted at six month intervals for 2 years. Measures included psychosocial variables (optimism, social support, coping, benefit finding, stressful life events, and perceived stress), depressive symptoms, and medication adherence. Linear regression and hierarchical linear modeling were used to investigate cross-sectional and longitudinal relationships respectively. RESULTS: Depressive symptoms were correlated with all positive and negative psychosocial variables with the exception of benefit finding. Gender moderated the relationship between adaptive coping and depressive symptoms. Religious coping and poorer medication adherence significantly correlated with fewer depressive symptoms for men only. Optimism, social support, avoidance coping, alcohol use, and perceived stress partially mediated the relationship between negative life events and depressive symptoms. Sub-optimal adherence predicted greater depressive symptoms in men only. Alcohol use predicted greater depressive symptoms over time for women only. Positive psychosocial variables were not correlated with medication adherence. Optimism predicted better adherence while avoidance coping, perceived stress, depressive symptoms, and negative life events predicted poorer adherence. Gender moderated the relationship between negative life events and medication adherence. Negative life events significantly predicted… Advisors/Committee Members: Gail Ironson, Neil Schneiderman, Julie Barosso, David Kling, Ray Winters, Rick Stueztle, Ph.D..

▼ Background: Medication adherence, which is how much is the patient committed to their medications, is an important factor in improving clinical outcomes and reducing mortalities. This adherence issue should not be the responsibility of the patients and the doctors only but also the pharmacists have to take a role to guarantee that the patients stay adherent. Objectives: To determine whether the role of pharmacists and their provided services, which were delivered either directly to patients or indirectly by their responsible physicians, have a significant positive impact on medication adherence or not. Method: A systematic review was conducted containing Seventy-Four studies either related to interventions done by the pharmacists and their effects on medication adherence or studies about result of questionnaires and surveys that highlighted how much the pharmacist is an important element in health care system. The studies were taken from three databases PubMed, Web of Science and Science Direct. After that, a quality assessment tool was applied on the included articles to clarify if they were weak, moderate or strong. Results: Sixty-one studies were intervention studies where the pharmacists were responsible for many interventions like patient education, counseling, motivational interviewing, pharmacists’ participation in emergency department in the hospital or primary care clinics, home mediated review and others. Fifty studies resulted in positive effect of the intervention on medication adherence especially patient education and the counseling and eleven studies showed that there is no significant change after the intervention. Adherence was measured in many different validated tools like Morisky scale, Proportion of Days Covered (PDC), refill report and others. The remaining thirteen studies were interviews and surveys to patients and health care workers which highlighted the role of the pharmacists. After evaluating these studies on quality assessment tool, which was general tool since the type of studies and the methodology were different, the results were that only five studies were strong, thirty moderate and thirty-nine weak. Conclusion: Many studies proved the positive role of pharmacists’ interventions on medication adherence especially patient education and counseling, but they were not strong evidence, and this is not enough to prove their important role. So more validated and reliable studies must be conducted in this field to give more reliable results.

▼ Background: Resistant hypertension is a chronic condition in which the arterial blood pressure remains persistently above goal despite concurrent treatment with three or more antihypertensive agents of different classes. It appears relatively common in clinical practice, despite the established effectiveness of antihypertensive medications. Clinical factors such as inadequate dosing of antihypertensive medications, white coat hypertension (the phenomenon in which blood pressure is higher in clinical settings versus other settings), improper blood pressure measurement, and poor adherence to antihypertensive treatment all preclude a diagnosis of resistant hypertension. Poor adherence is considered the most common cause of pseudo-resistance to treatment among patients with apparent treatment-resistant hypertension and can result in unnecessary treatment escalation and referral to specialist hypertension clinics at significant cost to the patient and the healthcare system. Despite forming a core component of the definition and diagnosis of resistant hypertension, the extent, predictors and patient perspectives of non-adherence have not been extensively examined for this group. Aim: The aim of this research is to examine the extent, theoretical predictors, and patient perspectives of non-adherence to antihypertensive medications for apparent treatment-resistant hypertension in primary care. Methods: This research comprised: (1) a systematic review and meta-analysis to examine the extent of medication non-adherence in the published literature, and the study-level predictors thereof; (2) a quantitative cross-sectional study to examine the extent of poor adherence among a large sample of patients with apparent treatment-resistant hypertension receiving treatment in primary care using multiple diverse adherence measures, as well as the predictive value of theoretical constructs drawn from the Common-Sense Model of Self-Regulation (i.e., treatment-favourable beliefs, coherence of beliefs resulting from experience with treatment, and medication-taking habit strength); and (3) a qualitative comparison of high and low adherers to delineate factors associated with good and poor adherence using thematic analysis. Findings: (1) The systematic review and meta-analysis revealed that approximately one-third of patients classed as having apparent treatment-resistant hypertension in the published literature may be more appropriately classed as pseudo-resistant due to poor adherence. Subgroup analysis further revealed that adherence estimates were dependent on the type of adherence assessment method used, with the highest non-adherence observed for physical tests for medications in bodily fluids. There was a small but significant difference in adherence estimates across study settings, with lowest non-adherence estimates observed in primary care settings, suggesting that a proportion of patients may be prematurely referred for specialist treatment without adequate assessment of adherence in primary care.

▼ Background: Cardiovascular disease is the leading cause of death and disability among patients with End-Stage Renal Disease (ESRD). Hyperphosphatemia is an independent cardiovascular risk factor in patients undergoing maintenance hemodialysis. Most patients are on a class of medication called Phosphorus Binders, which they take with meals and snacks to absorb the phosphorus naturally present in their food. Unfortunately, not all patients who are prescribed binders will take them. This study is designed to explore the barriers to phosphate binder adherence in young adult patients on hemodialysis. We hypothesized that, among patients aged 18-44, this may be due to an inaccurate or incomplete understanding of their susceptibility to an adverse cardiovascular event, such as stroke or heart attack. Methods: Participants were recruited from hemodialysis clinics operated by a large, for-profit dialysis provider in Western Washington. Eligible patients who consented to participate in the study were interviewed 1:1 by the researcher. Selection criteria for eligible participants were as follows: 1) the participant had been on maintenance hemodialysis at least 90 days prior to the start of the study, 2) the participant was between the age of 18-44 years old at the time of interview, 3) the patient was oriented to person, place, and time, 4) the patient spoke fluent English, and 5) the patient was prescribed a phosphorus binder to take with meals. Results: Seven women and ten men completed the interview. Participants ranged in age from 20-41 years old. Approximately one-third of the participants identified increased risk of heart attack or stroke as a result of hyperphosphatemia. However, three-quarters of the participants were able to identify at least one negative health consequence, most often calciphylaxis and bone disease. The remaining patients verbalized understanding that high phosphorus was bad for their health, even if they could not identify a specific health outcome. Roughly half of the patients made statements that demonstrated high perceived risk to hyperphosphatemia-related disease outcomes and the other half made statements to suggest low perceived risk or no perceived risk. Physical, psychosocial, financial, and other barriers to optimal adherence were explored to create an informed picture of adherence variables. Conclusions: The results of this study support that most young adult patients on dialysis are aware that hyperphosphatemia has serious negative health consequences for renal patients. This study suggests that knowledge of deleterious outcomes related to hyperphosphatemia does not readily translate to optimal phosphorus management in young adults on dialysis and that psychosocial, clinical, and healthcare delivery variables all play a role in hindering optimal adherence.

Background Few studies have examined the association between parenting quality and behavioral adjustment in children and asthma incidence. Medication non-adherence is a proposed mechanism for the association between caregiver stress and asthma morbidity, but research on the association is limited. Aims To examine the association between parent-child relationship and child’s behavioral adjustment and asthma incidence, and to explore the association between caregiver stress and medication non-adherence in children with asthma. Methods Secondary analyses were conducted in two study populations: a birth cohort study in the United Kingdom and an intervention trial of children with asthma in inner-city New Orleans. The first two analyses defined asthma by parent report and current asthma medication use at five or seven years. Mother-child relationship and child’s behavioral adjustment were measured with the Child-Parent Relationship Scale (CPRS) and the Strengths and Difficulties Questionnaire (SDQ), respectively, at three years. Caregiver stress and medication non-adherence were measured using Cohen’s Perceived Stress Scale (PSS-4) and caregiver self-report, respectively, at baseline and twelve months. Results Among families with the most major life events, children with mothers reporting poorest compared to best CPRS had an adjusted OR=2.8 (95% CI: 2.3-3.6) for asthma. Adjusted odds ratios for the association between abnormal versus normal SDQ at 3 years and asthma at 5 or 7 years was 1.2 (95% CI: 1.0-1.5). Adjusted odds ratios for non-adherence due to running out of medications were 6.8 (95% CI: 1.0-47.6) in high versus normal stress caregivers. Conclusions Increased risk of asthma was observed among those with the poorest mother-child relationships and the most major life events, and in children with abnormal behavioral adjustment. A statistically significant adjusted association between caregiver stress and overall medication non-adherence was not observed, but an association between increased caregiver stress and non-adherence due to running out of medications was suggested.

▼ OBJECTIVES: Phase I objectives were to measure the extent of primary nonadherence (PNA) in an integrated healthcare system and identify factors significantly associated with PNA to chronic and acute medications. The objective of phase II was to examine healthcare outcomes associated with PNA to cholesterol and diabetes medications. ❧ METHODS: This retrospective cohort study was conducted at Kaiser Permanente Southern California using data from its integrated electronic medical record system. All new prescriptions for 10 therapeutic drug groups (antiinfectives, analgesics, migraine medications, antidiabetics, osteoporosis medications, cardiovascular agents, antihyperlipidemics, antiasthmatics, antidepressants, and anticoagulants) written for patients who satisfied membership and other criteria were included in phase I. PNA rates were calculated by therapeutic drug group as the number of prescriptions not filled within 14 days over the total number of prescriptions. A multivariate logistic regression was used to identify patient, prescriber, and prescription factors significantly associated with PNA. Patients who filled an antidiabetic or antihyperlipidemic were eligible for inclusion in Phase II if they were at least 18 years of age and satisfied additional inclusion and exclusion criteria. A more conservative definition of PNA was applied in phase II as the failure to fill within 180 days. Descriptive statistics were used to summarize baseline differences among patient groups and to describe secondary nonadherence and unadjusted rates of event outcomes. The paired t-test and a multivariate difference-in-difference model were used to evaluate changes in lab values. A multivariate Cox Proportional Hazards model was used to measure the effect of PNA and secondary nonadherence on event outcomes of new disease complications, ER visits, and hospitalization. ❧ RESULTS: In phase I, a total of 569,095 new prescriptions for 398,025 patients satisfied study criteria. The overall PNA rate was 9.8% but individual PNA rates varied widely by therapeutic drug group. The effects of patient race, baseline comorbidities, prior fills, and being treatment-naive on PNA were consistent across drug groups. The strongest predictors were prior fills and being treatment-naïve. Some factors (mostly prescriber and prescription factors) depended on whether the treatment was acute or chronic. Phase II included 21,291 cholesterol patients and 10,137 diabetes patients. PNA rates were12.0% and 5.1% for cholesterol and diabetes, respectively. Secondary nonadherence was relatively worse in cholesterol than diabetes with about 20% of primary adherent patients only filling the first prescription. Adherent patients were on average older and sicker than nonadherent patients. Patients who were nonadherent to their cholesterol or diabetes medication were significantly associated with worse health outcomes in terms of lab values and ER visits. In cholesterol, the risk for ER visits was significantly higher in secondary nonadherent patients (HR=1.24, 95% CI:… Advisors/Committee Members: McCombs, Jeffrey (Committee Chair), Joyce, Geoffrey (Committee Member), Wilber, Kathleen H.

▼ Hypertensive patients are at high risk of drug therapy problems (DTPs), as there is multiple drug use for their comorbidities. To date, studies regarding DTPs in hypertensive patients are limited in Ethiopia. Thus, this study aimed to assess DTPs and medication adherence among ambulatory hypertensive patients on follow up at Tikur Anbessa Specialized Hospital (TASH). A hospital based cross sectional study was employed in 388 participants who fulfilled the inclusion criteria. Participants were interviewed and their medical chart was reviewed through a structured data collection formats. DTPs were assessed using Cipolle/Morely/Strand’s DTPs classification system. Data were reported as mean/percentage and multivariate logistic regression was performed to identify associated factors with DTPs. Out of 388 study participants, 283 of them had at least one DTP, of which 49.5% and 40.3% had drug interactions and adverse drug reactions (ADRs), respectively. Factors associated with DTPs, were old age (Adjusted Odds Ratio [AOR] =1.05, 5%CI:1.02-1.08), longer duration of treatment (AOR=1.06,95% CI:1.01-1.10), presence of complaints (AOR=2.23, 95%CI:1.06-4.71), ≥3 comorbidities (AOR=2.27, 95%CI:1.06-4.88), ≥5 drugs use (AOR=2.15, 95%CI:1.02-4.50), statins use (AOR=2.62, 95%CI:1.09-6.30) and aspirin use (AOR=3.79, 95%CI:1.11-12.87). About 45% of the study participants were non-adherent to their antihypertensives. Factors for non-adherence were monthly income of <500 Ethiopian birr (AOR=1.68, 95%CI: 1.03-2.72), ≥5 drugs use (AOR=2.36, 95%CI: 1.02-5.47), use of antidiabetics (AOR=1.95, 95%CI: 1.09-3.51) and non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs use (AOR=0.43, 95%CI: 0.20-0.91). DTPs were common among ambulatory hypertensive patients in TASH, indicating a need of multidisciplinary team that involved pharmaceutical care providers to identify and resolve DTPs in this setting.

▼ Chronic respiratory diseases, such as asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) are significant and growing causes of morbidity and mortality worldwide. Poor disease control causes a substantial burden on patients, their families and society. Inhaler therapy is the most popular asthma and COPD treatment, but patients are compromised from inappropriate medication use. How to measure adherence to medication is a huge global problem. This thesis presents an original audio-based monitoring system for the pressurised metered-dose inhaler (pMDI), which has been developed to track and analyse the patient's dose delivery and inhaler technique. Prior to this study, there existed no automated system, based on acoustic monitoring, to track and assess pMDI inhaler technique. In terms of the hardware, this system combines accelerometer and acoustic sensors to enable a comprehensive assessment of the pMDI technique. For recognition of the breath phases, this research initially employed a hidden Markov model (HMM) with a Gaussian mixture model (GMM) to identify the phases of the breath sound. Ultimately a model was developed that concatenating two deep learning models (1-D ResNet18 and CLDNNs), which improved the recognition accuracy of acoustic signals degraded by noise. Respecting motion events, this thesis introduces a method based on a root mean square (RMS) framing window in combination with a rotation matrix to achieve robust shake detection and vertical holding detection, respectively. This thesis further describes a series of experiments. Experiment 1 to 3 was designed to characterise the strengths and weaknesses of the system, in which testing also provided useful information for further system development. The final experiment was a real-patient study that involved the recruitment of six patients diagnosed asthma or COPD. The system tracked their pMDI use for three weeks and established the deviations of pMDI usage and technique that existed between the patients' self-reports and independent electronic reports. Characterisation of these differences, and the ability of the system to not only to monitor adherence but also to identify usage failure points suggest that the monitoring system will, in the future, be a highly desirable component of digital healthcare provision.

▼ Unipolar depression is a common mental disorder and is the leading cause of mental disability worldwide. Medication adherence is a complex process, particularly in people with unipolar depression. The signs and symptoms of depression can also contribute to non-adherence and it is a risk factor for non-adherence in other chronic conditions such as diabetes and HIV. The overall aim of the research presented in this thesis was to explore and examine issues pertaining to medication adherence in people with unipolar depression. To address the overall aim, the methods used in this research included a systematic review of published literature, semi-structured interviews with consumers, and a content validation study involving health care professionals. The ABC taxonomy which conceptualises adherence into three components—initiation, implementation, and discontinuation—was used as the framework for this research.«/p» «p style="text-align:justify"»The major outcome for this research was the development and content validation of a depression-specific medication adherence framework, based on the literature, qualitative findings, and experience of the research team. It was designed as a guide for health care professionals to better understand the adherence process from the consumer perspective and to inform tailored interventions to facilitate adherence. The framework acknowledges the different nature of potential factors influencing medication adherence at the specific phases of medication taking. Key considerations included individual perceptions, personal experience/s, and the influence of people around them. The findings also highlighted the need for valid measures to evaluate adherence across the three phases of adherence. A standout measure with strong reliability and validity was not apparent. Hence, a range of different subjective and objective measures is recommended to assess medication adherence across the different phases of medication taking. The overall findings of this thesis can be applied in everyday practice to enhance medication adherence in people with unipolar depression
