Popis: | Background/Aims The Hyperlink study is a cluster randomized trial in patients with uncontrolled blood pressure. The objectives of this analysis were: to compare measures of self reported adherence with actual adherence to medications at study enrollment to study predictors of adherence. Methods We analyzed prescription claims data for 146 participants who had prescription coverage through HealthPartners for at least one year prior to study enrollment and were taking at least 1 antihypertensive medication. Self reported adherence was measured using a 4-item Morisky scale. Actual adherence was defined as a continuous measure of Medication Possession Ratio (MPR) as well as a binary measure defining adherence as an MPR of >80%. |
