Effectiveness Of Psychoeducation And Assertive Training (PEAT) Combined For Improving Medication Adherence In Patients With Schizophrenia
Subject
assertive training, medication adherence, psychoeducation, schizophrenia;
Description
Background: Non-adherence behaviors have a variety of causes,
from suffering negative drug side effects to having scepticism
regarding the effectiveness of recommended treatments.
Recognising these complex relationships is essential to creating
strategies that effectively manage the psychosocial as well as
medical components of schizophrenia. The purpose of this study
is to investigate how a combination of psychoeducation and
assertive training can improve medication adherence in people
with schizophrenia.
Methods: A pretest-posttest quasi-experiment design was
employed in this study as part of a quantitative research
technique. Demographics and the Morisky Medication Adherence
Questionnaire were used in conjunction with observation to
collect data. Based on room-based simple random sampling, 80
patients with schizophrenia who met the inclusion criteria were
split into two groups. Of these, 38 patients in the intervention
group and 36 responders in the control group finished the study.
This study made use of the five-stage Psychoeducation and
Assertive Training (PEAT) module.
Results: A combination of psychoeducation and assertiveness
training (PEAT) was found to have an effect on medication
adherence in this study. Following PEAT, patients with
schizophrenia had a mean medication adherence of 5.92±1.29.
The statistical test findings showed that the mean medication
adherence of schizophrenic patients receiving PEAT differed
significantly (p value <0x7E>0.001) from those who did not.
Conclusion: Studies show that putting more of an emphasis on
PEAT can help hospitals treat patients with schizophrenia more
consistently by helping them take their medications as prescribed. Additionally, patients with schizophrenia should have a treatment plan that includes PEAT.
