摘要
背景:药物治疗问题(dtp)在高血压患者中很常见,并可能威胁到疾病的有效控制。本研究的目的是确定北沃罗公立医院高血压患者dtp的患病率和预测因素。方法:从2022年11月6日至2023年1月18日,对某卫生机构的高血压患者进行横断面研究,采用访谈者管理的结构化问卷和病历回顾。所有年龄在18岁及以上的高血压患者,接受了至少12个月的定期随访,采用简单的随机抽样方法纳入研究。采用多因素logistic回归分析,建立自变量与dtp发生的关系。不必要的药物治疗、需要额外的药物治疗、无效药物、剂量过低、剂量过高、药物不良反应和不依从性是结果变量。结果:纳入376例高血压患者。在所有参与者中,258人(68.6%)是女性。每位患者出现药物治疗问题的平均次数为1.55±0.307次,其中298名参与者(79.3%)报告至少出现过一次此类问题。本研究发现,需要额外的药物治疗是最普遍的问题(149,39.66%)。多药(AOR = 2.487, 95% CI = 1.375 ~ 4.499, p = 0.003)、存在合并症(AOR = 1.886, 95% CI = 1.035 ~ 3.439, p = 0.038)、血压未控制(AOR = 2.961, 95% CI = 1.669 ~ 5.254, p =结论:高血压患者在随访中经常出现药物治疗问题。建议促进临床药师参与设计、实施和监测治疗计划,以减少药物治疗问题的发生。
Drug Therapy Problems and Associated Factors Among Hypertensive Patients in North Wollo Public Hospitals, Northeast Ethiopia: Institutional-Based Cross-Sectional Study.
Background: Drug therapy problems (DTPs) are common in people with hypertension and may threaten the effective management of the disease. The purpose of this study was to determine the prevalence and predictors for DTPs in hypertensive people in North Wollo public hospitals.
Methods: On patients with hypertension, a cross-sectional study based in a health institution was carried out using an interviewer-administered structured questionnaire and medical record review from 6 November 2022 to 18 January 2023. All hypertensive patients, ages 18 and older, who underwent regular follow-ups for at least 12 months were included in the study using a simple random sampling method. Multivariate logistic regression analysis was used to establish the association between independent variables and the occurrence of DTPs. Unnecessary drug therapy, the need for additional drug therapy, ineffective drugs, dosage too low, dosage too high, adverse drug reactions, and noncompliance were the outcome variables.
Results: The study included 376 hypertensive patients. Of the total participants, 258 (68.6%) were female. The mean number of drug therapy problems per patient was 1.55 ± 0.307, with 298 participants (79.3%) reporting having at least one such problem. This study found that the need for additional drug therapy was the most prevalent problem (149, 39.66%). Polypharmacy (AOR = 2.487, 95% CI = 1.375-4.499, p = 0.003), presence of comorbidity (AOR = 1.886, 95% CI = 1.035-3.439, p = 0.038), and uncontrolled BP (AOR = 2.961, 95% CI = 1.669-5.254, p = <0.001) predicts the development of drug therapy problems.
Conclusion: Patients with hypertension who are on follow-up experience drug therapy problems frequently. Promoting the involvement of clinical pharmacists in designing, implementing, and monitoring therapeutic plans is recommended to decrease the occurrence of drug therapy problems.
