Analysis of related influencing factors of compliance with antiplatelet therapy in elderly patients with cerebral infarction after cerebrovascular interventional therapy
Objective To explore the related factors of compliance with antiplatelet therapy in elderly patients with cer-ebral infarction after cerebrovascular interventional therapy.Methods The clinical data of 191 elderly cerebral infarction pa-tients who underwent cerebrovascular interventional therapy in Second Affiliated Hospital of Chengdu Medical College/416 Hospital of Nuclear Industry from January 2021 to December 2022 were retrospectively analyzed.Their compliance with postop-erative antiplatelet therapy was investigated.According to their treatment compliance,they were divided into high compliance group and low compliance group.Univariate and multivariate Logistic regression analyses were used to analyze the related fac-tors of compliance with antiplatelet therapy after cerebrovascular interventional therapy in elderly patients with cerebral infarc-tion.Results Among 191 elderly patients with cerebral infarction who received cerebrovascular interventional therapy,72.77%(139/191)were included in the high compliance group and 27.23%(52/191)in the low compliance group.Logistic regression analysis showed that age,educational level,medical payment method,quality of medical services,reminders from family members to take medication,cognitive function,daily living ability,neurological deficits,and physical activity ability were independent risk factors for the compliance with antiplatelet therapy in elderly patients with cerebral infarction after cere-bral vascular intervention therapy(P<0.05).Conclusion The compliance with antiplatelet therapy in elderly patients with cerebral infarction after cerebrovascular interventional therapy needs to be improved.Their medication compliance is affected by many factors,and targeted intervention measures can improve their medication compliance.
