- W4382278312 abstract "Background and Objectives: The objective is to evaluate medication adherence level (MA) and the relevant determinants of MA among patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) monitored in ambulatory settings by general practitioners. Materials and Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted among patients with T2DM monitored in a GP practice in Sofia, Bulgaria (September–December 2022). All patients were interviewed according to a predesigned questionnaire after granting informed consent. MA level was evaluated through the Morisky–Green four-item questionnaire, and health-related quality of life was evaluated by EQ-5D-5L and VAS (visual analogue scale). Data were aggregated and statistically evaluated. Results: The total number of observed patients was 93. Around 48.4% of patients were female, and 90.3% of patients were between 50 and 80 years of age. Multimorbidity was identified among 70% (n = 65) of the respondents. High and medium levels of MA were revealed in 64.51% and 33.3% of respondents, respectively. Patients treated with insulin secretagogues were most adherent to the therapy (n = 83.3%) in comparison with the other treatment groups. The onset of the disease, professional status, age, gender, number of therapies, and quality of life did not affect the level of MA (p > 0.05). VAS scores among nonsmokers (VAS = 63.16 ± 20.45 vs. 72.77 ± 14.3) and non-consumers of alcohol (VAS = 63.91 ± 19.34 vs. VAS = 72.54 ± 15.98) were statistically significant lower (p < 0.05). A significant related factor for MA was years lived with diabetes (OR = 3.039, 95% CI 1.1436–8.0759, p = 0.0258). The longer the disease duration, the more the odds for a high MA level increased. Conclusions: The number of nonadherent diabetic patients in Bulgaria is low, which might be evidence of patients’ concern about their own health and understanding about the importance of prescribed therapy. Further comprehensive study with additional patients is required to confirm the results and investigate the predicting factors for a high level of MA." @default.
