How willing are patients to comply with regimen measures?
Ako je to s ochotou pacientov k režimovým opatreniam?
Skúsenosti praktických lekárov s liečbou arteriálnej hypertenzie poukazujú na závažný problém (ne)ochoty pacientov podriadiť sa pokynom lekára. Popritom je zrejmé, že práve compliance je dôležitým predpokladom úspechu poskytovanej zdravotnej starostlivosti (ZS). Ukazuje sa, že nedodržiavanie režimových opatrení býva často neodhaleným dôvodom nezvládnutej liečby ochorenia. Poznanie príčin tohto konania pacientov a ich analýza môÏe napomôcť v skvalitnení ZS, vzostupe spokojnosti pacienta.
Kľúčové slová:
compliance pacienta – arteriálna hypertenzia – režimové opatrenia – organizácia práce lekára.

Overview
Experience of general practitioners with the treatment of arterial hypertension points out a serious problem of the patients’ unwilligness to follow the instructions of their physicians, although it is clear that namely compliance is an important precondition of success in provided medical care. It is very often shown, that the patients’unwilligness to follow the regimen measures seems to be an undetect cause why the treatment is not as succesful as expected, or is totally unsuccessful. To discover the reasons of the patients’ behaviour and their analysis may help us to improve the quality of provided medical care in favour of the patient.
Key words:
patients’compliance – arterial hypertension – regimen measures – physician’s organisation of work.
