Nowadays diseases tend to chronicle, mainly due to the increase in life expectancy and this leads to a state of polypharmacy. More than 1.5% of Spain's GDP is spent on pharmaceuticals and healthcare products. Complex chronic patients (pluripathological and polymedicated) account for most of the expenditure. The "Action Group A1" of the European Innovation Partnership develops in the "Active and Healthy Ageing" programme actions to improve the quality of life and health outcomes of these patients. On the other hand, the PITeS TIiSS project develops decision support tools to improve this scenario. An ontology has been developed as a tool on adherence. The domain of this ontology is mainly focused on medication adherence and measurement methods. This ontology gathers the necessary knowledge about the domain allowing the use of the ontology as part for is possible.
如今，疾病往往呈慢性化，主要是由于预期寿命的增加，这导致了多重用药的状态。西班牙超过1.5%的国内生产总值用于药品和医疗保健产品。复杂的慢性病患者（患有多种疾病且使用多种药物）占了大部分支出。欧洲创新伙伴关系的“A1行动小组”在“积极健康老龄化”计划中开展行动，以改善这些患者的生活质量和健康结果。另一方面，PITeS TIiSS项目开发决策支持工具来改善这种情况。已经开发了一种本体作为依从性工具。该本体的领域主要集中在药物依从性和测量方法上。这个本体收集了该领域的必要知识，以便尽可能将本体用作其中一部分。
