to analyze the relationship between self-care and pharmacotherapy complexity in individuals with rheumatoid arthritis.
this cross-sectional study was conducted at a teaching hospital in the Central-West region of Brazil from October to December 2023. Individuals with rheumatoid arthritis undergoing treatment for at least three months were included. A sociodemographic questionnaire, the Appraisal of Self-Care Agency Scale-Revised, and the Pharmacotherapy Complexity Index were used. Analytical statistics were applied using percentiles, the Shapiro-Wilk test, post hoc analysis, ANOVA, and the Kruskal-Wallis test.
the sample consisted of 96 individuals. The mean self-care and pharmacotherapy complexity scores were at intermediate levels, 56.33 and 18.29, respectively. Relationships were identified between dose frequency and self-care development, as well as between overall pharmacotherapy complexity and reduced self-care capacity.
a high dosage frequency may positively influence self-care development in individuals with arthritis, whereas higher pharmacotherapy complexity scores may impair self-care capacity.
分析类风湿关节炎患者自我护理与药物治疗复杂性之间的关系。
本横断面研究于2023年10月至12月在巴西中西部地区的一家教学医院进行。纳入接受治疗至少三个月的类风湿关节炎患者。使用了一份社会人口学调查问卷、修订后的自我护理能力评估量表和药物治疗复杂性指数。采用百分位数、夏皮罗-威尔克检验、事后分析、方差分析和克鲁斯卡尔-沃利斯检验进行分析统计。
样本包括96名个体。自我护理和药物治疗复杂性的平均得分分别处于中等水平，分别为56.33和18.29。确定了给药频率与自我护理发展之间的关系，以及整体药物治疗复杂性与自我护理能力降低之间的关系。
高给药频率可能对关节炎患者的自我护理发展产生积极影响，而较高的药物治疗复杂性得分可能损害自我护理能力。
