description |
The aim of this study was to evaluate pharmaceutical counseling following hospital discharge.
All subjects received pharmacist counseling before discharge in a private hospital in Aracaju-SE,
Brazil, from October 2007 to February 2008. Medication adherence was measured by Haynes-Sacket and
Morisky-Green-Levine scales at the end of post-discharge treatment. Post-surgery patients (n = 243) received
counseling on the day of hospital discharge, while adherence was observed in 186 (76.5 %) of these
patients. During the four months, the increase in adherence was observed in those patients that received
the counseling: 68.7 %, 73.6 %, 82.9 % and 85.7 %, respectively. The patients were distributed according
to the variables of age, chronic illness, and duration of treatment did not significantly vary during the
study. At the end of pharmaceutical counseling period, more than three fourths of post-surgery patients
were considered adherent after hospital discharge. This result indicates a potential opportunity to implement
this service in other wards. |
