sSec_2">Aims
spar0010">The aim was to determine the impact of better adherence to antihypertensive agents on patient's outcomes.
sSec_3">Patients and methods
spar0015">We proceed to prospective study of 57 diabetic's patients with acute coronary syndrome (ACS), from January to June 2015 in Cardiology department of IBN ROCHD University Hospital of Casablanca (Morocco), after collecting general demographic characteristics, the assessment of adherence to the medical regime was by the Morisky Medication Adherence Scale (MMAS 4 – item version).
sSec_4">Results
spar0020">In this period 57 patients with ACS were included (42% of total ACS). The mean patient age was 64±8 years, 43, 9% were male. Among these patients, level of compliance was 60% according to (MMAS 4). Compared with non compliant patients, lower adherence level was associated with a high risk on in-hospital mortality (p=0,037) and 30-day mortality (p=0,015).
sSec_5">Conclusion
spar0025">this study is among the first conducted in Morocco which suggests that better adherence to AH agents is associated with a risk reduction of ACS. Adherence to hypoglycemic agents needs to be improved so that patients can benefit from the full protective effects of hypoglycemic therapies.
