Investigating the Effect of Adherence to Antipsychotic Therapy on the Length of Stay and Number of Hospitalizations in Patients with Schizophrenia - A Descriptive Analysis.
Optimizing long-term outcomes in schizophrenia treatment requires effective pharmacological interventions. Medication adherence is known to influence clinical outcomes, yet there is a scarcity of studies examining its correlation with factors like Length of Stay (LOS) and re-hospitalization frequency. These outcomes are crucial indicators of how medication adherence affects overall patient well-being. ⋯ In this study, therapy adherence and therapy regimen were found to have a significant association with gender, as well as differences between the number of male and female schizophrenia patients that were statistically significant. While other variables may exhibit clinical associations, their statistical significance has not been fully depicted. The results of this study could be preliminary study for subsequent observational studies.
