“…Child self-report includes 5-7, 8-12 and 13-18 years old. A 5-point Likert scale is utilized across the child self-report for ages [8][9][10][11][12][13][14][15][16][17][18] (0=never a problem; 1=almost never a problem; 2=sometimes a problem; 3= often a problem; 4=almost always a problem). Items were reverse-scored and linearly transformed to a 0-100 scale, so that higher scores indicate better health-related quality of life.…”

Familial Mediterranean Fever (FMF) is generally defined with short endurance, suddenly observed fever (39-40 °C) and painful abdomen, joints, chest. The aim is to measure the impact of pharmacist-led education on the quality of life (QoL) of children with FMF. This study was carried out in the Pediatric Rheumatology out-patient clinic of Istanbul Medeniyet University Ministry of Health Goztepe Research and Teaching Hospital, Istanbul. The QoL of 59 children was measured using the PedsQL 4.0 Generic Core Scale. Oral and written education about the disease and its treatment was provided and after a lag period QoL was reevaluated. Significant improvements in QoL were recorded in the domains of physical, psychosocial and school functioning (p<0.05); and in the emotional functioning of patients with more severe attacks. These improvements were only found to be significant after a lag period of more than four weeks. Findings suggest that the medium term benefits of education on QoL may be more important than shorter term gains. Additionally, prescribed doses were observed to be lower than optimal doses which may lead to inadequate therapy.

The Bipolar Mood Disorder is characterized by the alternation of depressive crises with episodes of mania or euphoria, having these patients 15 to 35 times more chances of suicide, as compared with people without this disorder. The pharmacotherapy is fundamental for this disease, aiming to decrease the frequency of episodes and disease severity. In these patients, the polypharmacy has recently increased and one of the main difficulties is the adherence to treatment. The objective of this study was to contribute for the improvement of bipolar patients health conditions, developing their respective pharmacotherapeutic follow-up. Twenty eight adult bipolar patients who were participants of a specialized clinic within a tertiary hospital in Porto Alegre have been randomly selected, and the Dader Method of pharmacotherapeutic follow-up has been applied. The more common clinical comorbidities were: hypertension (50%), obesity (46.43%), and hypothyroidism (36.29%). The bipolar patients are more susceptible to clinical comorbidities, and many of them could be due to pharmacotherapy. Only 1.43% of patients presented Drug Related Problems, being all of them resolved along the study. It was also observed that 32.14% of evaluated patients presented low adherence to treatment, and between these patients, 55.56% passed to have good adherence after pharmacotherapeutic follow-up. The pharmacotherapeutic follow-up is fundamental for the improvement of patient's health. New studies, with higher number of patients and longer duration, are necessary to evaluate the percentage of patients that could be beneficiary of Pharmaceutical Care.
O Transtorno do Humor Bipolar é caracterizando pela alternância de crises depressivas com episódios de mania ou euforia, tendo estes pacientes 15-35 vezes mais chances de suicídio em comparação com pessoas sem este transtorno. A farmacoterapia é fundamental, visando diminuir a freqüência dos episódios e a gravidade da doença. Nestes pacientes, a polifarmácia tem aumentado ultimamente e uma das maiores dificuldades é a adesão ao tratamento. O objetivo do estudo foi contribuir para a melhoria das condições de saúde de pacientes bipolares, realizando o acompanhamento farmacoterapêutico dos mesmos. Foram selecionados aleatoriamente 28 pacientes bipolares adultos, participantes de um ambulatório especializado de um hospital terciário em Porto Alegre e aplicado o Método Dáder de acompanhamento farmacoterapêutico. As co-morbidades clínicas mais comuns foram: hipertensão (50%), obesidade (46,43%) e hipotiroidismo (39,29%). Os pacientes bipolares são mais suscetíveis a co-morbidades clínicas e muitas destas podem ser devidas a farmacoterapia. Apenas 1,43% dos pacientes apresentavam Problemas Relacionados a Medicamentos, sendo todos solucionados no decorrer do estudo. Também se observou que 32,14% dos pacientes avaliados apresentavam baixa adesão ao tratamento e entre estes, 55,56% passaram a ter boa adesão após o acompanhamento farmacoterapêutico. É fundamental para a melhoria da saúde do paciente o acompa...
