RESUMO
Introducción: Los objetivos del control del asma son prevenir la aparición de síntomas y reducir el riesgo de exacerbaciones y mortalidad mediante educación médica, técnica inhalatoria, adherencia a medicación controladora e indicación de planes de acción (PA); pero los pacientes enfrentan exacerbaciones de diversa gravedad. Objetivos: El objetivo principal del estudio SABINA EMERGENCIAS fue describir la forma en que los pacientes concurren al servicio de emergencias (SE), considerando la frecuencia y uso de medicación de rescate. Objetivos secundarios: consultas al SE; uso de corticoides sistémicos (CS), agonistas beta-2 de acción corta (SABA) y tratamiento controlador; disponibilidad de PA. Material y Métodos: Estudio transversal, observacional, descriptivo, en cuatro hospitales del área metropolitana de Buenos Aires en adultos con asma. Resultados: n=323 (edad: 43,7±16,8 años; mujeres: 66,6%): 61,3% no eran seguidos por especialistas; 90,1% utilizaron SABA como rescate (mediana:10 inhalaciones; rango 0-100) la semana previa; 75,9% tuvieron ≥1 consulta al SE el año previo (mediana:2 [0-100]); 29,4% habían sido hospitalizados; 59,1% recibieron ≥1 ciclo de CS; mediana de consumo de SABA: 3 envases/año (0-23); 51,7% habían utilizado ≥3 envases; 30% no empleaban tratamiento de mantenimiento (23% usaba SABA); 75,9% no efectuaban terapia regular de mantenimiento; 77,1% no contaban con PA. Conclusión: Una reducida proporción de pacientes asmáticos que concurren al SE son seguidos por médicos especialistas, con alto consumo y elevada frecuencia de aplicación de SABA como rescate y baja adherencia al tratamiento de mantenimiento. Se remarca la necesidad de optimizar el manejo, con énfasis en la derivación al especialista, adherencia al tratamiento y prescripción de PA.
Introduction: The objectives of asthma control are to prevent the onset of symptoms and reduce the risk of exacerbations and mortality through medical education, inhaler technique, adherence to controller medication and indication of action plans (AP); but patients experience exacerbations of varying severity. Objective: The main objective of the SABINA EMERGENCIAS study was to describe how patients attend the emergency department (ED), considering the frequency and use of rescue medication. Secondary objectives: ED visits; use of systemic corticosteroids (SC), short-acting beta-2 agonists (SABA) and controller therapy; availability of AP. Methods: Cross-sectional, observational, descriptive study in 4 hospitals in the metropolitan area of Buenos Aires in adults with asthma. Results: n=323 (age:43.7±16.8 years; women:66.6%): 61.3% were not followed by specialists; 90.1% used SABA as rescue medication (median:10 puffs; range 0-100) the previous week; 75.9% had ≥1 visit to the ES the previous year (median: 2 [0-100]); 29.4% had been hospitalized; 59.1% received ≥1 cycle of CS; median SABA consumption: 3 cannisters/year (0-23); 51.7% had used ≥3 cannisters; 30% did not use maintenance therapy (23% used SABA); 75.9% did not perform regular maintenance therapy; 77.1% did not have an AP. Conclusion: A small proportion of asthmatic patients attending the ES are followed by specialist physicians, with high consumption and high frequency of SABA application as rescue medication and low adherence to maintenance treatment. The need to optimize management is highlighted, with emphasis on referral to specialists, adherence to treatment and prescription of APs.

Objective. To determine the predictive role of resilience and hope on adherence to treatment in hemodialysis patients hospitalized in two hospitals affiliated to Shiraz University of Medical Sciences (Shiraz, Iran). Methods. This is a descriptive-analytical study that was conducted in 2021-2022 on 120 patients treated in hemodialysis sections in Namazi and Shahid Faqihi teaching hospitals. Sampling was conducted using a stratified random method. Demographic information questionnaires, Connor and Davidson's resilience, Snyder's hope and adherence to kidney patients' treatment questionnaires were used to collect the data. Results. The finds showed that the levels of resilience, hope, and adherence to treatment had hight level. More specifically, it was indicated that the mean and standard deviation for the total resilience score, the hope variable, and adherence to total treatment was 75.45±14.34, 40.43±3.66, and 80.12±18.20, respectively; which have maximum possible scores of 100, 48 and 100. Thus, it can be said that no correlation was observed between resilience and adherence to treatment variables (p>0.05); hope variable and adherence to treatment (p>0.05), and adherence to treatment with hope and resilience variables (p>0.05). However, hope and resilience variables showed a direct and weak correlation with each other (r=0.36, p<0.05); that is, patients who had more hope indicated better resilience as well. Conclusion. Although in this study we found that the resilience and hope variables were not able to predict the treatment adherence, hope and resilience indicated a direct and weak correlation. It is recommended that nurses should pay more attention to hope and resilience of hemodialysis patients in order to promote their health.
Objetivo. Determinar el papel predictivo de la resiliencia y la esperanza en la adherencia al tratamiento en pacientes en hemodiálisis internados en dos hospitales afiliados a la Universidad de Ciencias Médicas de Shiraz (Shiraz, Irán). Métodos. Se trata de un estudio descriptivo-analítico que se realizó en 2021-2022 con la participación de 120 pacientes tratados en secciones de hemodiálisis en los hospitales docentes Namazi y Shahid Faqihi. El muestreo se realizó mediante un método aleatorio estratificado. Para la recogida de datos se utilizaron datos demográficos y las escalas de resiliencia de Connor y Davidson, de esperanza de Snyder y de adherencia al tratamiento de pacientes renales. Resultados. Los hallazgos mostraron que los niveles de resiliencia, esperanza y adherencia al tratamiento se encontraban en niveles altos. Más concretamente, se indicó que la media y la desviación estándar para la puntuación total de resiliencia, la variable esperanza y la adherencia al tratamiento total fueron 75.45±14.34, 40,43±3.66 y 80.12±18.20, respectivamente; las cuales tienen como puntajes máximos posibles 100, 48 y 100. No se observó correlación entre las variables: resiliencia y adherencia al tratamiento (p>0.05), esperanza y la adherencia al tratamiento (p>0.05), y adherencia al tratamiento y las variables esperanza y resiliencia (p>0.05). Sin embargo, las variables esperanza y resiliencia mostraron una correlación directa y débil entre sí (r=0.36, p<0.05); es decir, los pacientes que tenían más esperanza indicaron también mejor resiliencia. Conclusión. Aunque en este estudio encontramos que las variables resiliencia y esperanza no fueron capaces de predecir la adherencia al tratamiento, la esperanza y la resiliencia indicaron una correlación directa y débil. Se recomienda que el personal de enfermería preste más atención a la esperanza y la resiliencia de los pacientes en hemodiálisis para promover su salud.

Métodos. Trata-se de um estudo descritivo-analítico realizado em 2021-2022 com a participação de 120 pacientes atendidos nas seções de hemodiálise dos hospitais universitários Namazi e Shahid Faqihi. A amostragem foi realizada por método aleatório estratificado. Para a coleta de dados foram utilizados dados demográficos e as escalas de resiliência de Connor e Davidson, escalas de esperança de Snyder e adesão ao tratamento de pacientes renais. Resultados As descobertas mostraram que os níveis de resiliência, esperança e adesão ao tratamento estavam em níveis elevados. Mais especificamente, foi indicado que a média e o desvio padrão do escore de resiliência total, da variável esperança e da adesão total ao tratamento foram 75.45±14.34, 40.43±3.66 e 80.12±18.20, respectivamente; que possuem as pontuações máximas possíveis de 100, 48 e 100. Não foi observada correlação entre as variáveis: resiliência e adesão ao tratamento (p>0.05), esperança e adesão ao tratamento (p>0.05), e adesão ao tratamento e esperança e variáveis de resiliência (p>0.05). Contudo, as variáveis esperança e resiliência apresentaram correlação direta e fraca entre si (r=0.36, p<0.05); Ou seja, os pacientes mais esperançosos também indicaram melhor resiliência. Conclusão. Embora neste estudo tenhamos constatado que as variáveis resiliência e esperança não foram capazes de predizer a adesão ao tratamento, a esperança e a resiliência indicaram uma correlação direta e fraca. Recomenda-se que a equipe de enfermagem preste mais atenção à esperança e à resiliência dos pacientes em hemodiálise para promover sua saúde.

Con el advenimiento de nuevas técnicas quirúrgicas y medicaciones inmunosupresoras la sobrevida de los niños trasplantados mejoró, llegando a la adultez. La continuidad de su tratamiento requiere un proceso planificado que permita su tránsito a un sistema de salud orientado al adulto. El objeto de este trabajo es mostrar la transición a centros de adultos en una cohorte de pacientes trasplantados renales en el Hospital Garrahan, describir sus características clínicas y demográficas, su evolución, y oportunidades de mejora implementadas. Debido a cambios médicos y su abordaje desde la interdisciplina, se dividió a la población en tres periodos: era 1 (1988-1999), era 2 (2000-2009), y era 3 (2010- 2023). En la era 1, 179 adolescentes continuaron su atención médica en un centro de adultos, 212 en la era 2 y 201 en la era 3. En la era 1 el seguimiento estaba coordinado por el nefrólogo de cabecera y eran consultados los servicios de Urología, Servicio Social y Salud Mental. En la era 2, se fortaleció el trabajo en interdisciplina y aún más a partir del 2011. Surgieron centros de trasplante de adultos que recibían adolescentes y médicos dedicados a ellos en forma preferencial. En la actualidad la transición comienza a los 12 años y progresa hasta los 18. El modelo implementado es la transición directa, entre el nefrólogo pediatra y el de adultos, con varias consultas secuenciales en ambos centros. Si bien la sobrevida del paciente e injerto mejoraron, el rechazo, asociado a no adherencia, es una asignatura por mejorar (AU)
With the advent of new surgical techniques and immunosuppressive medications, the survival of transplanted children has improved, allowing them to reach adulthood. The continuity of their treatment requires a planned process that facilitates their transition to an adult-oriented healthcare system. The aim of this study was to examine the transition to adult centers in a cohort of renal transplant patients at Garrahan Hospital, describing their clinical and demographic characteristics, their evolution, and the improvement opportunities implemented. Based on medical changes and the interdisciplinary approach, the population was divided into three periods: era 1 (1988- 1999), era 2 (2000-2009), and era 3 (2010-2023). In era 1, 179 adolescents continued their medical care in an adult center, 212 in era 2, and 201 in era 3. In era 1, follow-up was coordinated by the attending nephrologist with consultations from Urology, Social Services, and Mental Health Services. In era 2, interdisciplinary work was strengthened, and even more so since 2011. Adult transplant centers were created to receive adolescents with physicians dedicated to their care on a preferential basis. Currently, the transition begins at 12 years of age and progresses up to 18. The implemented model involves direct transition between the pediatric nephrologist and the adult nephrologist, with several sequential consultations in both centers. Although patient and graft survival have improved, rejection associated with non-adherence remains an area for improvement

El 25% de los pacientes con Enfermedades Inflamatorias Intestinales (EII) se diagnostican antes de los 20 años. En la mayor parte de los centros del país se lleva a cabo la "transferencia" del paciente desde un centro de atención pediátrico a uno de adultos. La "transición" es un criterio de calidad con beneficios en el control de la EII reduciendo el número de recaídas, de hospitalizaciones y de cirugías. Por tal motivo hemos desarrollado un Programa Interdisciplinario de Transición entre dos hospitales de referencia nacional e internacional en EII. Materiales y métodos: Entre 1/2021 y 12/ 2022 se incorporaron 24 pacientes que ingresaron en 3 fases: Fase 1 Pacientes entre 14 y 16 años asistidos en el Hospital Garrahan (HG) con un abordaje interdisciplinario. Fase 2. A partir de los 17 años se realizaron 2 (dos) encuentros en el HG en conjunto con gastroenterólogos de adultos evaluando adherencia y autonomía y la Fase 3 llevada a cabo en el Hospital B. Udaondo (HBU) sólo con el equipo de adultos luego de 6 meses de realizada la transferencia evaluando adherencia al tratamiento, consultas a emergencias, internación y/o cirugías Resultados: Al inicio del Programa el 66% de los pacientes presentaban una actividad moderada a severa vs el 8% al finalizar la fase 3. Luego de la transferencia el 12,5% necesito ingreso a guardia e internación y un 8% tratamiento quirúrgico. El 83% de los pacientes continúan en seguimiento luego de 6 meses de haber sido transferidos (AU)
Twenty-five percent of patients with inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD) are diagnosed before the age of 20 years. In most centers in the country, the "transfer" of the patient from a pediatric to an adult care center is done. However, "transition" is a quality criterion with benefits in the control of IBD by reducing the number of relapses, hospitalizations, and surgeries. For this reason, we developed an Interdisciplinary Transition Program between two national and international reference hospitals in IBD. Materials and Methods: Between January 2021 and December 2022, we incorporated 24 patients into a three-phase program. Phase 1 involved patients between 14 and 16 years of age seen at Garrahan Hospital (HG) with an interdisciplinary approach. Phase 2 began from 17 years of age, with two meetings held at HG involving adult gastroenterologists to evaluate adherence and autonomy. Phase 3 was conducted at Hospital B. Udaondo (HBU) only with the adult team, six months after the transfer, evaluating adherence to treatment, emergency consultations, hospitalizations, and/or surgeries. Results: At the beginning of the program, 66% of the patients presented with moderate to severe disease activity, compared to 8% at the end of Phase 3. After the transfer, 12.5% of the patients required emergency department visits and hospitalization, and 8% required surgical treatment. Eighty-three percent of the patients continue in the program and are still being followed up six months after the transfer (AU)

Cada vez más pacientes trasplantados hepáticos durante la edad pediátrica alcanzan la adultez debido al aumento en las tasas de sobrevida a largo plazo, por lo que requieren continuar su atención en un centro de adultos. Este pasaje entre centros se asocia con peores resultados clínicos y mayor mala adherencia, debido al momento de vulnerabilidad que representa este momento en la atención médica y por el mismo momento vital atravesado por el paciente adolescente. La mayoría de los centros de trasplantes establecieron programas de transición para mejorar estos resultados. Para que estos programas sean efectivos, deben conocerse las barreras y los facilitadores de adherencia tanto en el paciente como en su entorno. El objetivo de este trabajo es reconocer estos factores de riesgo y su relación con mala adherencia y resultados clínicos, y realizar un seguimiento a corto plazo de los pacientes transferidos a un centro de atención de adultos. Para esto, se realizó una encuesta pre y post derivación a una cohorte de pacientes adolescentes del Hospital Garrahan. Para medir mala adherencia se utilizaron métodos objetivos y subjetivos, cada uno de los cuales correlacionó con distintos factores de riesgo, como presencia de violencia, consumo de sustancias y déficit educativo. Como conclusión, medir la mala adherencia es complejo debido a que su origen es multifactorial. Al parecer, combinar cuestionarios validados con entrevistas no estructuradas es la estrategia más efectiva para detectar mala adherencia en la consulta médica. Luego, las variables psicosociales están cobrando cada vez más relevancia y deben ser consideradas en los programas de transición de los servicios de trasplante si se quiere lograr un seguimiento a largo plazo exitoso (AU)
An increasing number of pediatric liver transplant patients reach adulthood due to the increase in long-term survival rates, and therefore require continued care in an adult center. This transition between centers is associated with worse clinical outcomes and poorer adherence, due to the vulnerability that this moment in medical care represents and the same vital moment that the adolescent patient goes through. Most transplant centers have established Transition Programs to improve these outcomes. For these programs to be effective, the barriers and facilitators of adherence in both the patient and their environment should be known. The aim of this study was to identify these risk factors and their relationship with poor adherence and clinical outcomes, and to perform a short-term follow-up of patients transferred to an adult care center. For this purpose, a pre- and post-referral survey was conducted on a cohort of adolescent patients from the Garrahan Hospital. Objective and subjective methods were used to measure poor adherence, each of which correlated with different risk factors, such as the presence of violence, substance use, and educational deficits. In conclusion, measuring poor adherence is complex because its origin is multifactorial. Combining validated questionnaires with unstructured interviews seems to be the most effective strategy for detecting poor adherence in the medical consultation. Therefore, psychosocial variables are becoming increasingly relevant and should be considered in the Transition Programs of transplantation services if a successful longterm follow-up is to be achieved (AU)

Los sobrevivientes de un trasplante alogénico de células progenitoras hematopoyéticas (TACPH) pediátrico presentan alto riesgo de padecer problemas de salud. Debido a esta vulnerabilidad, la continuidad del cuidado impacta en su pronóstico y la transición a la medicina del adulto (TMA) es un proceso clave. Objetivo: Evaluar el proceso actual de TMA de los receptores de TACPH en nuestro hospital. Métodos: Diseño: observacional retrospectivo y prospectivo. Población: todos los pacientes (p) que realizaron su TMA desde enero/2022 a marzo/2023. Instrumentos: entrevista personal; material escrito; resumen de historia clínica; escalas TRAQ 5.0 (transición), PedsQL 4.0 (CVRS) y Lansky (funcionalidad); elección de estrategias de seguimiento según complejidad y requerimientos; contacto con profesionales de adultos; entrevista telefónica luego de 6 meses posTMA; red conformada. Resultados: 36p completaron la TAM (33 presencial, 3 virtual). Edad m19 años (m6 años de seguimiento), 70% del interior del país, 58% TACPH por enfermedad maligna, 64% TACPH familiar. A la TMA: antecedente EICHc 50%, segunda enfermedad maligna 2%, compromiso órganos 75% (m2/p, r0-8, mayormente endocrinológicas, oculares y neurológicas), 94% Lansky ≥80 (r50-100), PedsQL m82 (27% ≤75), TRAQ m3.4 (r1.7- 4.8). Derivación: todos los p cubrían sus necesidades (30% en centros de alta complejidad o expertos en THA) pero 3p debieron readecuar las estrategias, 5p presentaban complicaciones en actividad o necesidad de pronta resolución. Contacto posterior: 30/33p continuaban seguimiento, 3p pudieron retomarlo, 9p nuevas complicaciones/tratamientos. Red: 20 profesionales/instituciones. Conclusiones: Se refuerza la necesidad y utilidad de un proceso de TMA tanto formal como personalizado según necesidades individuales de los pacientes con TACPH (AU)
Pediatric allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplant (HSCT) survivors are at high risk for health problems. Because of this vulnerability, continuity of care impacts their prognosis and transition to adult medicine (TAM) is a key process. Objective: To evaluate the current process of TAM of HSCT recipients in our hospital. Methods: A retrospective and prospective observational study was conducted. The population included all patients (p) who underwent TAM from January 2022 to March 2023. Instruments used included personal interviews, written materials, medical history summaries, the TRAQ 5.0 (transition), PedsQL 4.0 (HRQoL), and Lansky (functionality) scales. Follow-up strategies were chosen according to complexity and requirements, with contact established with adult professionals and a telephone interview conducted six months post-TAM in an established network network. Results: 36p completed TAM (33 face-to-face, 3 online). Mean age was 19 years (with a mean of 6 years of follow-up); 70% were from the provinces of the country, 58% underwent HSCT due to malignant disease, 64% had familial HSCT. At TAM: 50% had a history of GVHD, 2% had a second malignant disease, and 75% had organ involvement (mean of 2 per patient, ranging from 0 to 8, mostly endocrinological, ocular, and neurological), 94% had Lansky ≥80 (range, 50-100), mean PedsQL was 82 (27% ≤75), mean TRAQ was 3.4 (range, 1.7-4.8). Referral needs were met for all patients (30% in tertiary-level centers or with experts in allogeneic HSCT), although 3 patients had to readjust strategies, and 5 had complications requiring prompt resolution. In subsequent contact, 30 out of 33 patients continued follow-up, 3 resumed it, and 9 experienced new complications or treatments. The network included 20 healthcare providers/institutions. Conclusions: This study reinforces the need for and usefulness of a formal and personalized TAM process according to the individual needs of patients with HSCT (AU)

Introducción: Las mujeres con predisposición genética-familiar presentan un riesgo más elevado de desarrollar cáncer de mama. La vigilancia es una de las estrategias más efectivas para ofrecer a este subgrupo de mujeres, sin embargo la adherencia a la misma puede ser dificultosa. Objetivo: Analizar la adherencia de las pacientes con Alto Riesgo Heredo-Familiar (ARHF) al programa específico de "Seguimiento de pacientes de Alto Riesgo" del Hospital Universitario Austral. Material y método: Se revisaron de forma retrospectiva datos de 104 mujeres sanas con ARHF que ingresaron al programa de vigilancia: "Seguimiento de pacientes de Alto Riesgo" del Hospital Universitario Austral en el período comprendido entre junio de 2016 a febrero de 2022. Resultados: La adherencia al programa fue total en 38 pacientes (36,54%) y parcial en 42 (40,38%). Se observó falta de adherencia en 24 pacientes (23,07%). La causa más prevalente fue la incomodidad al realizar la resonancia (54,16%). Analizando la adherencia según el año de ingreso al programa se observa una caída significativa a partir del 3er año de seguimiento y solo 48,98% completaron la sexta ronda. Conclusiones: La falta de adherencia observada fue significativa. Los datos demostrados apuntan a una necesidad de continuar desarrollando estrategias que faciliten el seguimiento(AU)
Introduction: Women with a genetic-familial predisposition have a higher risk of developing breast cancer. Surveillance is one of the most effective strategies to offer this subgroup of women, however adherence to it can be difficult. Objetive: To analize the adherence of patients with High Risk of Familial-Hereditary (HRFH) breast cancer to a specific program: "Follow-up in High Risk patients" of the Austral University Hospital. Material and method: Data from 104 women with HRFH who were admitted to the surveillance program: "Follow-up in High Risk patients" of the Austral University Hospital in the period from june 2016 to february 2022 were retrospectively reviewed. Results: Adherence to the program was complete in 38 patients (36,54%) and partial in 42 (40,38%). 24 (23,07%) patients had lack of adherence. The most prevalent cause was discomfort when performing the resonance (54,16%). When we analyze adherence according to the year of admission to the program, a significant drop is observed from de 3rd year of follow-up and only 48,98% completed round six. Conclusions: The observed lack of adherence was significant. The demonstrated data points to a need to continue developing strategies that facilitate monitoring(AU)

Resultados. Se evaluaron 60 pacientes. Se observó una adherencia del 86,44% (n=51). 13 pacientes fueron remitidos al área de HM (edad media 67,08 años; DE 6,09). Hemos analizado el impacto que puede representar este trastorno, tanto en la recuperación física como en la percepción de calidad de vida. Conclusiones. Los efectos positivos de la derivación a MH complementan los beneficios de la RCV. La mejora emocional del individuo también favorece la adherencia y el cumplimiento del tratamiento rehabilitador
Introduction. Evidence shows a bidirectional relationship between depression and coronary heart disease. The identification of depressive symptoms in the cardiovascular rehabilitation (CVR) consultation can be a valuable indicator. Materials and methods. Those patients who presented depressive symptoms (self-reported) were referred to the Mental Health (MH) service, and were subsequently compared with a group of patients without these symptoms, and their impact on cardiovascular variables was evaluated. Results. 60 patients were evaluated. An adherence of 86.44% (n=51) was observed. 13 patients were referred to the MH area (mean age 67.08 years; SD 6.09). We have analyzed the impact that this disorder can represent, both on physical recovery and on the perception of quality of life. Conclusions. The positive effects of referral to MH complement the benefits of CVR. The individual's emotional improvement also favors adherence and compliance with rehabilitation treatment

INTRODUCTION: Patient adherence to maintenance medication is critical for improving clinical outcomes in asthma and is a recommended guiding factor for treatment strategy. Previously, the APPaRENT studies assessed patient and physician perspectives on asthma care; here, a post-hoc analysis aimed to identify patient factors associated with good adherence and treatment prescription patterns. METHODS: APPaRENT 1 and 2 were cross-sectional online surveys of 2866 adults with asthma and 1883 physicians across Argentina, Australia, Brazil, Canada, China, France, Italy, Mexico, and the Philippines in 2020-2021. Combined data assessed adherence to maintenance medication, treatment goals, use of asthma action plans, and physician treatment patterns and preferences. Multivariable logistic regression models assessed associations between patient characteristics and both treatment prescription (by physicians) and patient treatment adherence. RESULTS: Patient and physician assessments of treatment goals and adherence differed, as did reporting of short-acting ß2-agonist (SABA) prescriptions alongside maintenance and reliever therapy (MART). Older age and greater patient-reported severity and reliever use were associated with better adherence. Patient-reported prescription of SABA with MART was associated with household smoking, severe or poorly controlled asthma, and living in China or the Philippines. CONCLUSIONS: Results revealed an important disconnect between patient and physician treatment goals and treatment adherence, suggesting that strategies for improving patient adherence to maintenance medication are needed, focusing on younger patients with milder disease. High reliever use despite good adherence may indicate poor disease control. Personalised care considering patient characteristics alongside physician training in motivational communication and shared decision-making could improve patient management and outcomes.

Given the psychosocial and economic costs of behaviors of patients who seem not to benefit from the medications, technologies, and medical therapies available for chronic diseases such as Type 1 Diabetes Mellitus, therapeutic adherence has been identified as one of the main focuses in the intervention. This paper presents contributions from semiotic cultural clinical psychology for understanding problems associated with the implementation of medical treatment in patients with Type 1 Diabetes Mellitus to explore psychological dimensions not yet reported in depth. A narrative review of 24 scientific articles published between 2012 and 2023 is carried out. The information is produced through thematic analysis, and the results are presented in three themes: 1. illness characteristics, 2. adherence and associated concepts, and 3. modes of intervention. It concludes with the development of a two-axis proposal for understanding the experience of patients that privileges psychological aspects involved in the disease and its treatment, considering the approach to the goals of treatment as dynamic and fluctuating rather than as final states.
