Abstract

            The present study was a predictive correlational research which aimed at investigating the cognitive illness representation, emotional response and patient-provider relationship on antiplatelet therapy adherence among patients with acute ST- elevated myocardial infarction (STEMI) six months to one year post percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). The study sample consisted of 177 patients with STEMI post PCI at a specialized tertiary hospital in Nontaburi province.  Data were collected by survey of the demographic characteristics questionnaire, the health and medication intake questionnaire, the Brief Illness Perception Questionnaire, Trust in Physician Scale, and the Medication Adherence Report Scale.  Descriptive statistics, Spearman’s rho and logistics regression analysis were used to analyze data.

            The findings revealed that 79.7% of the participants were male with the mean age of 58.75 years old (S.D. = 11.1).  Almost three quarters, or 70.1%, had good medication adherence. Moreover, cognitive illness representation, emotional response and patient-provider relationship could co-predict antiplatelet therapy adherence among patients with STEMI post PCI by 32.3% (Negelkerke R2 = 0.323). Finally, emotional response to illness “fear of relapses” (OR = 1.14, 95%CI = 1.06-1.21, p < 0.001) and relationship between patients and healthcare providers were the two factors that had an influence on antiplatelet therapy adherence (OR = 1.30, 95% CI = 1.15-1.46, p < 0.001) with statistical significance.

            Based on the study findings, it is recommended that nurses should raise the patients’ awareness about chance of relapses and promote the relationship between patients and healthcare providers to ensure antiplatelet adherence therapy among patients with STEMI post PCI.
