GUERRERO, Andrea Cevallos et al. Treatment adherence in patients with diffuse neuropsychiatrie disorders associated with systemic lupus erythematosus. Rev.Colomb.Reumatol. [online]. 2022, vol.29, n.1, pp.26-30.  Epub 12-Jan-2023. ISSN 0121-8123.  https://doi.org/10.1016/j.rcreu.2020.12.003.

Introduction:

Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) is a chronic disease that affects multiple systems and may include neurological and psychiatric events that could compromise treatment adherence and long-term outcomes in SLE.

Objective:

To evaluate treatment adherence in patients with diffuse neuropsychiatric disorders associated with SLE.

Methods:

A cross-sectional descriptive study was conducted. Treatment adherence was eval uated with the Morisky Medication Adherence Scale (MMAS-8) in patients with diffuse neuropsychiatric disorders associated with SLE (cognitive impairment, psychosis, mood disorders, and anxiety).

Results:

A total of 60 patients with neuropsychiatric disorders associated with SLE were included. Thirteen patients (21.6%) had high adherence, 9 (15%) had medium adherence, and 38 patients (63.3%) had low treatment adherence.

Conclusion:

This study has identified that almost two-thirds of the participants (63.3%) had low treatment adherence.
