Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Long-term chemotherapy is required for patients with tuberculosis; however continuing to follow through with medication is arduous. The purpose of this study was to heighten patient awareness and improve adherence to medication regimens, as well as developing educational tools and programs to support patients in continuing their treatment. We determined the actual situation regarding education and environments for tuberculosis patients in hospitals throughout Japan. We made an educational DVD for patients based on these findings. Moreover, we developed and put into practice an educational program for patients which utilized this DVD. We distributed the DVD free of charge to leading tuberculosis hospitals nationwide. With the goal of evaluating the effectiveness of the DVD, we conducted a survey aimed at nursing staff and patients of hospitals where we had distributed the DVD.
