Medication Adherence, Self-Efficacy, Self-Esteem, Depression Level and Nursing Approach in Depression

Abstract

Depression is an important health problem both in our country and in the world. One of the most important elements of the treatment and care process in depression is treatment adherence. Medication adherence is the regular use of psychotropic medications to reduce the symptoms of depression and prevent relapse. Patients who do not take their medications regularly are evaluated negatively in terms of medication adherence. Medication non-adherence is one of the most common reasons for treatment failure for depression. Side effects of medication, lack of knowledge, lack of insight and the perception that medication is ineffective underlie treatment non-adherence. Self-efficacy is a concept that expresses an individual's belief in his/her ability to perform the necessary behaviors to achieve desired outcomes. Low levels of self-efficacy in patients with depression may cause them to have difficulty in fulfilling their roles and responsibilities. Self-esteem is a concept related to an individual's perception of himself/herself. Low self-esteem is one of the most important symptoms of depression and is one of the factors that can negatively affect the treatment process. The level of depression refers to the severity of the patient's depressive symptoms. The level of depression can vary from mild to severe and can significantly affect the patient's quality of life. Determining the level of depression plays an important role in monitoring the symptoms of depression and evaluating the effectiveness of treatment and nursing care. Nurses can assume important roles in improving medication adherence, self-efficacy, self-esteem and depression level of patients with depression. In this context, the aim of this study is to explain the medication adherence, self-efficacy, self-esteem, depression level and nursing approach in patients with depression.

Depresyonda Tedavi Uyumu, Öz Yeterlik, Benlik Saygısı, Depresyon Düzeyi ve Hemşirelik Yaklaşımı

Abstract

Depresyon, hem ülkemizde hem de dünyada önemli bir sağlık problemidir. Depresyonda tedavi ve bakım sürecinin en önemli unsurlarından biri tedaviye uyumdur. Tedavi uyumu, depresyonun semptomlarını azaltmak ve nüksü önlemek için psikotrop ilaçların düzenli olarak kullanılmasıdır. İlaçlarını düzenli almayan hastalar, tedavi uyumu bakımından olumsuz değerlendirilmektedir. Tedaviye uyumsuzluk, depresyon tedavisinin başarısız olmasının en yaygın nedenlerinden biridir. Tedaviye uyumsuzluğun altında ilaç yan etkileri, bilgi eksikliği, iç görü eksikliği ve ilaçların etkisiz olduğu algısı yatmaktadır. Öz yeterlik, bireyin istenen sonuçları elde etmek için gerekli davranışları gerçekleştirme becerisine olan inancını ifade eden bir kavramdır. Depresyon hastalarında düşük öz yeterlik düzeyi, hastaların rol ve sorumluluklarını yerine getirmekte zorlanmalarına neden olabilmektedir. Benlik saygısı ise, bireyin kendisi hakkındaki algısıyla ilgili bir kavramdır. Düşük benlik saygısı, depresyonun en önemli belirtilerinden biri olmakla birlikte tedavi sürecini olumsuz etkileyebilen faktörlerdendir. Depresyon düzeyi, hastanın depresif belirtilerinin şiddetini ifade eder. Depresyon düzeyi, hafiften şiddetliye kadar değişebilmekte ve hastanın yaşam kalitesini önemli ölçüde etkileyebilmektedir. Depresyon düzeyini belirlemek, depresyonun belirtilerini izlemede, tedavi ve hemşirelik bakımının etkinliğini değerlendirmede önemli rol oynamaktadır. Hemşireler depresyon hastalarının tedavi uyumunu, öz yeterliğini, benlik saygısını ve depresyon düzeyini iyileştirmede önemli roller üstlenebilir. Bu kapsamda bu çalışmanın amacı, depresyon hastalarının tedavi uyumu, öz yeterlik, benlik saygısı, depresyon düzeyi ve hemşirelik yaklaşımını açıklamaktır.
