Key Points

  • The aim is to assess colchicine adherence in children with familial Mediterranean fever and identify influencing factors.
  • Evaluated adherence rates using objective tools like MASIF
  • Compared objective results with self-reported adherence
  • Analyzed patient factors to determine their impact on adherence
  • Colchicine non-adherence is common among children with FMF
  • Objective measures showed higher non-adherence rates compared to self-reports
  • Little correlation exists between patient factors and adherence rates

Abstract

Colchicine non-adherence is frequent in paediatric FMF and largely unrelated to patient factors. Objective tools such as MASIF reveal higher non-adherence rates than self-reports and are essential for accurate evaluation in clinical decision making.
