[ XXXX and compliance with drug therapy].

@entity1 @entity8728 @entity66 @entity1504
Particularly elder multimorbid @entity1 suffering from a @entity1504 need a long term therapy. One condition for success, however, is the regular intake of drugs by the @entity1 . Therefore the final goal is the increase of drug-compliance. This is based on the enhancement of the knowledge of the actual drug-compliance, the subject we wanted to learn more about by empirical investigations. During one year the drug-compliance of each @entity1 of the Special Clinic Klausenbach was tested over a period of 20 days. The results were taken by checking @entity8728 fluorometrically (method according to Gundert-Remy). In this way the @entity1 could be classified as "takers" and "non-takers". The following variables wee considered: diagnoses, marital status, age, nationality, profession, IQ, mood, subjective evaluation of success of cure and medication. since according to a pre-study foreigners show a lower rate of compliance we restricted the sample to the 892 german cure @entity1 , 343 of whom suffered from @entity66 . Their compliance-level was almost 50%. The results of the subgroups hardly differed. The cure @entity1 suffering from @entity1504 did not show any striking compliance behaviour: the values are far below the ideal value, however. Further multivariate statistical analyses are designed to contribute to the development of effective measures of intervention.
