Prior institutionalization may flag lower nonadherence risk in HF; leaves open modifiable determinants for future study.

Structured PICO

What are the determinants of medication adherence in heart failure patients?

Population

Heart failure patients (data pooled from 11 articles)

Intervention

Presumed determinants of medication adherence (including past institutionalization, educational level, social, economic, condition-related, therapy-related, and patient-related factors)

Outcome

Heart failure medication adherence levels

Past institutionalization is associated with higher medication adherence in heart failure patients, but evidence for other determinants remains inconsistent.

Limitations

Lack of evidence for many presumed determinants making it impossible to provide recommendations for future interventions
