Abstract
RODRIGUEZ-BATTIKH, Hermes H.; ESQUIVEL-PRADOS, Elisabet and GARCIA-CORPAS, José P.. Measurement of the patient's knowledge about his antidiabetic medication: systematic review. Ars Pharm [online]. 2020, vol.61, n.3, pp.193-197. Epub Aug 17, 2020. ISSN 2340-9894. https://dx.doi.org/10.30827/ars.v61i3.13648.
Introduction:
The patient’s knowledge about the antidiabetic medication (PKAM) influences medication adherence. That is why it is necessary to quantify it.
Aim:
The aim of the study was to identify the different ways in which PKAM has been measured.
Method:
A systematic review was carried out in the Medline, Scopus, Cinahl and Psycinfo databases. The PRISMA recommendations were used to perform this review.
Results:
3 articles were included. Two of them used questionnaires to measure PKAM and the other used a practical demonstration by the patient.
Conclusions:
None of the PKAM measurement methods provided validity and reliability data. It is necessary to define the PKAM agreed at an international level and design a valid and reliable measurement tool based on this definition.
