目前,新型農村合作醫療正在我國300多個縣(市)開展試點工作.然而,在農村總體經濟實力不強又面臨市場經濟沖擊的大形勢下,建立新型農村合作醫療制度將是一項十分艱難、復雜的工程.本文討論了新型農村合作醫療制度產生的歷史背景及如何增強農民對新型農村合作醫療制度的信心問題.
ObjectiveTo retrospectively collect data on patients with stable chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), and explore the current status of medication adherence and its main influencing factors in China.MethodsAccording to the principle of convenience, 293 patients with COPD were enrolled in 16 tertiary hospitals located in Nanjing, Hefei, Wuhu, Xuzhou, and Chuzhou. The status quo and influencing factors of medication adherence in COPD patients were identified and analyzed by using the 8-item Morisky Drug Compliance Scale, Beliefs about Medicines Questionnaire, Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale, General Self-Efficacy Scale, and modified British Medical Research Council. The analysis was based on the framework provided by the WHO’s "five-dimensional determinants" and the mathematical relationship was demonstrated through sequential logistic regression analysis. ResultsThe medication adherence of the target population is 11.95%. A higher socio-economic status [odds ratio (OR) 0.30, 95% confidential interval (CI) 0.10 - 0.91], patients’ general beliefs about the medication utility (OR 0.29, 95%CI 0.17 - 0.50) and overuse (OR 0.30, 95%CI 0.16 - 0.55) were associated with a lower chance of being adherent in patients with COPD. While disease severity (OR 2.01, 95%CI 1.11 - 3.64) and types of drug use (OR 1.91, 95%CI 1.07 - 3.41) presented opposite results. ConclusionsMedication adherence in domestic patients with COPD is not satisfactory at the present stage. Effective ways to improve patients’ medication adherence and quality of life could be proposed from the national, living environment and individual three dimensions.
