摘要
Abstract
Objective(s)
To assess the association between pharmacist intervention counseling with medication adherence and quality of life. Also, to assess if these associations vary by the focus, structure, training, or robustness of the counseling. Methods
The initial search identified 1805 references, of which 62 randomized trials (RCTs) met inclusion criteria for the systematic review. Of the 62 RCTs, 60 (with 62 results) had extractable data for the meta-analysis. Data were pooled using a random-effects model. Results
Most study patients were older and taking multiple prescription drugs. The pooled results showed a statistically significant increase in the odds of medication adherence with the pharmacist counseling intervention versus no counseling (pooled odds ratio [OR] = 4.41; 95% confidence interval [CI] 2.46–7.91; P < 0.01). The results of a subgroup analysis suggest the primary disease, counseling focus, location, and robustness may modify the effect of pharmacist counseling on medication adherence. There was a statistically significant improvement in the quality of life with pharmacist counseling versus no pharmacist counseling (pooled standardized mean difference [SMD] = 0.69; 95% CI 0.41–0.96; P < 0.01). The results of a subgroup analysis suggest that counseling focus, location, training, robustness, and the measurement method, but not the disease category, may modify the effect of pharmacist counseling on quality of life. Conclusion
The evidence supports pharmacist intervention counseling to increase mediation adherence and quality of life. The counseling location and structure may be significant factors in improving medication adherence. The overall methodological quality of evidence was very low.
