    (Kare Publ, 2010) Tel, Havva; Dogan, Sibel; Ozkan, Birgl; Coban, Sibel
    Objectives: The present research was carried out descriptively in order to determine the compliance to treatment among patients with chronic psychiatric disorders according to their relatives. Methods: The research was carried out with the relatives of 73 patients who were hospitalized at Erkilet Hospital for Mental Health during 1-28 February 2008. The data were collected using a questionnaire form by means of faceto-face interview. Percentage distribution and chi-square test were used for the data evaluation. Results: It was determined that most of the caretaker relatives were the mothers or spouses of the patients. The relatives expressed that they believed the patients would recover with medications and that the treatment should be continued. According to the responses, two-thirds of the patients did not use the medications regularly and did not present for medical checkups regularly. With respect to descriptive features of the patients and the characteristics of the course of illness, there were no statistically significant differences regarding the regular use of medication, stopping medication without the physician's permission and regular visits to polyclinics for checkups (p>0.05). However, it was determined that patients with schizophrenia, those hospitalized twice a year, and those who had been ill for 2-5 years took their medications irregularly, discontinued treatment without the physician's permission and attended medical check-ups irregularly. Conclusion: We determined in this research that the relatives believed the patients would recover with medications and that treatment should be continued. However, most of the patients used the medications irregularly, did not attend medical check-ups regularly and had compliance problems to the illness.
