İlaç uyumsuzluğu, hasta sonuçlarını ve sağlık sistemlerinin sürdürülebilirliğini olumsuz etkileyen önemli bir sorundur. Pek çok hasta ilaç tedavilerini takip etmekte güçlük çekmekte, bu da hem bireysel sağlık sonuçlarını hem de genel sağlık sistemini olumsuz etkilemektedir. Dijital teknolojinin gelişmesi ve yaygınlaşmasıyla birlikte, ilaç uyumunu takip etmek için kullanılan yöntemlerde teknolojik yenilikler devreye girmektedir. Elektronik izleme, ilaç uyumunun takibi konusunda bugüne kadar en güvenilir ve en zengin verileri sunmasına rağmen, henüz rutin bakımda yaygın olarak kullanılmamaktadır. Bu teknolojik yaklaşımlar arasında elektronik ilaç kutuları, elektronik ilaç şişeleri, akıllı blister paketleri, akıllı inhalerler, sindirilebilir sensörler, kablosuz gözlemli terapi, elektronik ilaç yönetim sistemleri, mobil sağlık uygulamaları ve akıllı saatler gibi araçlar yer almaktadır. Bu derleme makalesinde, ilaç uyumunu takip etmekte kullanılan teknolojilerin avantaj ve dezavantajları sunularak güncel yaklaşımlar ele alınmaktadır.

Technological Approaches in Monitoring Medication Adherence

Öz

Medication non-adherence is a significant issue that negatively affects patient outcomes and healthcare systems' sustainability. Many patients struggle to follow their treatments, which has adverse consequences for both individual health outcomes and the overall healthcare system. With the advancement and widespread adoption of digital technologies, innovative technological approaches have emerged for monitoring medication adherence. Although electronic monitoring systems have provided the most reliable and comprehensive data on medication adherence, they are not yet widely used in routine care. These technological approaches include electronic pillboxes, electronic pill bottles, smart blister packs, smart inhalers, ingestible sensors, wireless observed therapy, electronic medication management systems, mobile health applications, and smartwatches. This review article examines current approaches by presenting the advantages and disadvantages of the technologies used to monitor medication adherence.
