Background: questo lavoro analizza l'aderenza alla terapia medica dei pazienti arruolati in uno studio clinico. L'end-point primario di questo studio è stato quello di valutare se l'arruolamento in uno studio clinico può migliorare l'aderenza alla terapia antiaggregante piastrinica e/o lipidica.
Materiali e Metodi: sono stati considerati i primi 92 pazienti asintomatici con stenosi carotidea ≥50% arruolati nello studio CARUSO. La compliance complessiva al basale al trattamento antiaggregante è stata stratificata in pazienti con buona, media e scarsa aderenza. Risultati: la compliance complessiva alla terapia antiaggregante è risultata buona per 66 pazienti (95,7%) su 69 già in trattamento. È stata riscontrata una correlazione significativa tra la buona aderenza alla terapia farmacologica e la presenza di precedenti eventi cardiovascolari al momento dell'arruolamento: 92,3% (un evento), 84,6% (due eventi), 50% (tre eventi) vs 35,1% di quelli senza eventi (p<0.001). Dopo 6 mesi è stata riscontrata una buona aderenza estesa anche ai pazienti che non avevano avuto eventi precedenti (p=0.083).

Conclusioni: questa ricerca ha evidenziato una tendenza positiva nel miglioramento dell'aderenza alla terapia lipidica (88,3% vs 56,7%, p=0.002) e il mantenimento di un livello elevato (>95%) di aderenza alla terapia antiaggregante, dopo l'arruolamento in uno studio clinico.
