Adherence to treatment in paediatric patients - results of the nationwide survey in Poland.
Przemysław KardasMarek DabrowaKonrad WitkowskiPublished in: BMC pediatrics (2021)
Physicians taking care of Polish paediatric patients underestimated the prevalence of medication non-adherence and believed that this was a problem of other doctors. This optimistic bias was particularly pronounced in older doctors. These results identify important barriers toward improving patient adherence that are worth addressing in the pre- and post-graduate education of Polish physicians. They also put some light over the challenges that educational activities in this area may face.
