Abstract

Introduction. Poor medication adherence significantly increases the likelihood of complications, which leads to a decrease in quality of life (QoL) in patients and an increase in treatment costs.Goal. To study the adherence and effectiveness of treatment in COPD patients (group D) using a fixed triple combination of vilanterol/umeclidinium bromide/fluticasone furoate (FF/UMEC/VI).Material and methods. The study included 26 male patients with severe COPD with frequent exacerbations (group D). All patients were recommended therapy with a fixed triple combination of vilanterol/umeclidinium bromide/fluticasone furoate (FF/UMEC/VI). Patients were monitored for 12 months, and the following endpoints were recorded: hospitalization due to exacerbation of COPD, progression of COPD (decrease in FEV1), and death of the patient. In addition, the dynamics of treatment adherence, the number of SAT test scores, and the level of depression on the Beck scale were evaluated.Results. After 6 months of taking a fixed triple combination of FF/UMEC/VI, there was an improvement in treatment adherence in the form of a 15.3% decrease in the proportion of non-committed patients with COPD and an increase in the proportion of patients committed to therapy by 7.7%; the average frequency of exacerbations significantly decreased, this dynamics remained by the 12th month of follow-up. After 12 months, patients with COPD showed a statistically significant decrease in the proportion of patients who were not committed to treatment and a statistically significant increase in the proportion of patients who were committed to treatment for COPD; there was a statistically significant decrease in the frequency of severe depression in COPD patients; there was a statistically significant decrease in the proportion of patients with severe and moderate COPD influence on the quality of life.Conclusion. The results of our study confirmed the view that adherence plays a significant role in the effectiveness of treatment of COPD patients, and the use of a fixed triple combination of FF/UMEC/VI helps to increase it.
