Adherence research commonly happens in a silo, focused on a particular disease state or type of therapy. Learning from outside disciplines can bring new insights and ideas. This article presents adherence research as related to people with a diagnosis of a serious mental illness (SMI) and medication adherence through smartphone applications (apps). Individuals with SMI have high rates of not taking medication, increasing risks of relapse and hospitalization. Advances in technology may be advantageous in promoting taking medication. Smartphones apps have been designed for people with SMI. Further research is needed to evaluate their efficacy on improving rates of taking medication.
坚持治疗研究通常是孤立进行的,侧重于特定的疾病状态或某种类型的治疗。借鉴其他学科的知识可以带来新的见解和想法。本文通过智能手机应用程序(apps)将与被诊断为严重精神疾病(SMI)和药物依从性相关的坚持治疗研究呈现出来。患有 SMI 的个体不按时服药的比例很高,这增加了复发和住院的风险。技术进步可能有利于促进服药。已经为患有 SMI 的人设计了智能手机应用程序。需要进一步研究来评估它们在提高服药率方面的效果。
