Impact of Nursing Interventions on Adherence to Treatment With Anti-tuberculosis Drugs in Children and Adolescents
This study evaluates the efficacy of nursing interventions on adherence to antituberculosis medication in a paediatric cohort (aged 0-18 years) and identifies the risk factors for non-compliance. There are two phases in the study; Phase 1: retrospective descriptive analysis in children and young people receiving antituberculosis treatment (non-intervention group); and Phase 2: quasi-experimental, longitudinal, prospective study (intervention group). The results of the two phases will be compared.
