Brief Summary:
The adherence project aims to understand adherence rates and barriers to Direct oral anticoagulants (DOACs) and statins and improve awareness of healthcare professionals on adherence across Leeds.
During the first component of the project, the investigation of rates of non-adherence was classed as service evaluation. The second component of this project, which this IRAS application refers to, will look into patient perspectives and barriers to adherence. Currently, such information is not routinely collected and only requested as part of shorter or longer consultations depending on a pre-defined clinical agenda and with little attention to adherence. Two specific questionnaires have been designed and integrated within the primary care medical records systems. Following invitation for target patients on DOACs and/or statins to respond anonymously, responses to the questionnaire(s) will be stored in their medical records. Data will then be extracted from the two systems \[SystmOne and Egton Medical Information Systems (EMIS)\] using unique system identifiers, that will be pseudonymised at the time of extraction. All patient pseudonymised information (including medical records system identifiers and responses to the questionnaire) will be extracted by the LTHT Researcher-Pharmacist following access provided by each participating General Practitioner (GP) Practice, based on searches built centrally by the Data Quality Team of the Leeds Clinical Commissioning Group (CCG).
Apart from the dissemination of findings based on the questionnaire, a training package for health professionals will be designed and delivered. The aim of the training is to combine and disseminate all findings of the project, raise awareness on real-world non-adherence prevalence and the common barriers to adherence, demonstrate the usefulness of routine adherence estimation and suggest tools to address non-adherence in daily practice. The objectives of this training will also consider the training needs of healthcare professionals locally, as per the healthcare professionals survey that has been designed and circulated.
