- W3145310541 abstract "Cohort-based multidrug therapy (MDT) completion rates are used to assess adherence to MDT. However this measure gives no information about when during the treatment period defaulting occurs. Two districts in Cabo Delgado province in Northem Mozambique were selected for evaluation of multibacillary patient defaulter data between 1 993 and 1 997 to examine when patients default during the treatment period. In ali, 548 (59'2%) of 926 ME patients completed treatrnent and 378 (40'8%) defaulted between 1 993 to 1 997. The percentage of defaulters feli steadily from 59·8% in 1 993 to 23·2% in 1 997. Of the 378 defaulters 57.7% defaulted treatrnent within 6 months and 83· 1 % within 1 year of starting treatrnent. It was observed that patients tend to default early rather than late in the treatment period and that this pattem is maintained over time despite a fali in defaulter rates. Patients established early into a treatrnent routine were more likely to complete treatment. A comprehensive effort to improve and maintain leprosy control services will probably inftuence adherence more than any single, specific strategy. Shortening MDT treatment from 2 years to 1 year is unlikely to affect the defaulter rate." @default.
