An essential, comprehensive, and practical guide to understanding,
measuring, and modifying patients' adherence behavior to optimize
treatment outcomes, this book covers all major aspects of adherence
in dermatology. The first section describes current knowledge on
the magnitude and impact of nonadherence; the second outlines
measuring adherence in the context of databases, trials and
practice. The third section addresses adherence in key skin
diseases and the fourth covers numerous strategies to improve
adherence by mitigating specific patient barriers. All sections
emphasize ways to optimize communication with patients: the
foundation for producing successful health behavior change. Low
adherence helps explain why, despite effective treatments existing
for all major dermatologic conditions, many patients still fail to
improve. When clinicians endeavour to maximize adherence, with the
aid of evidence-based strategies, these drugs will often realise
their potential. This book devotes special attention to
understanding why individuals may be nonadherent, so that each
patient can receive a suitable treatment regimen, with a
personalized plan of action. This book is designed for clinicians
at all levels, serving as both introductory training for medical
students and residents, and an update on the field for experienced
practitioners. Researchers and policymakers will also benefit from
its coverage of research methods and the impact of nonadherence in
specific diseases. Adherence in Dermatology bridges the gap between
outcomes researchers and clinicians by explaining the latest
findings in plain language, with examples from everyday
dermatologic practice.
