| Sumario: | Aim: To evaluate the satisfaction, preferences and adherence of patients in secondary cardiovascular prevention treated with the CNIC cardiovascular polypill compared with patients treated with the separate monocomponents. Methods: Observational, cross-sectional and multicenter study. Satisfaction was evaluated by the Treatment Satisfaction Questionnaire for Medication 9 items, adherence by the Morisky-Green questionnaire and ad-hoc questions were asked regarding patient preferences. Results: Polypill patients reported higher satisfaction than patients treated with the monocomponents (77.3 vs 71.2%, p < 0.0001). 72.8% of patients treated with the monocomponents would prefer to change to the polypill. Patients treated with the polypill had significantly higher adherence than patients treated with the monocomponents (57.7 vs 41.1%) (p = 0.0027). Conclusion: Polypill patients show higher satisfaction and better adherence. Most patients receiving the monocomponents would prefer a polypill regime. |
