Abstract

Skizofrenia merupakan gangguan psikiatri yang menimbulkan disabilitas yang cukup luas, serta dicirikan oleh suatu siklus kekambuhan dan remisi. Kekambuhan biasa terjadi karena adanya kejadian-kejadian buruk sebelum mereka kambuh. Penelitian yang bertujuan untuk mengetahui hubungan kepatuhan minum obat dengan kekambuhan pasien skizofrenia paranoid. Penelitian dilakukan menggunakan metode deskriptif. Sampel penelitian berjumlah 84 pasien dengan teknik purposive sampling. Penelitian dilakukan di RSJD Dr. Amino Gondohutomo Provinsi Jawa Tengah. Hasil penelitian di analisis menggunakan distribusi frekuensi. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan ada hubungan yang signifikan antara kepatuhan minum obat dengan kekambuhan pasien (p-value=0,022<0,05) dengan arah hubungan terbalik yang berarti bahwa semakin patuh pasien dalam minum obat maka dapat menurunkan kekambuhan pasien. Pasien diharapkan dapat minum obat secara teratur karena terbukti bahwa minum obat yang teratur mampu menurunkan tingkat kekambuhan.

RELATIONSHIP OF COMPLIANCE DRINKING DRUGS WITH SKIZOFRENIA PARANOID PATIENTS

ABSTRACT

Schizophrenia is a psychiatric disorder that causes considerable disability, and is characterized by a cycle of recurrence and remission. Recurrence usually occurs due to bad events before they relapse. The study aimed to determine the relationship of medication compliance with recurrence of paranoid schizophrenia patients. The study was conducted using descriptive methods. The research sample was 84 patients with purposive sampling technique. The study was conducted at the RSJD Dr. Amino Gondohutomo, Central Java Province. The results of the study were analyzed using frequency distribution. The results showed that there was a significant relationship between medication adherence and patient recurrence (p-value = 0.022 <0.05) with the direction of the inverse relationship, which meant that the more obedient patients taking the drug could reduce patient recurrence. Patients are expected to take medication regularly because it is proven that taking medication regularly can reduce the recurrence rate.
