TIF Article Discusses Compliance
June 8, 2010 – The current issue (#57) of TIF Magazine, published by the Thalassaemia International Federation, includes many interesting articles, including both a patient’s and a doctor’s perspective on compliance.
Authored by Dr. Chris Sotirellis, Vice President of the UK Thalassaemia Society, “Compliance, Adherence, Concordance – What’s In a Word, and Does It Matter?” presents the patient perspective and draws from Dr. Sotirellis’ presentation at the recent 2nd Pan-European Conference in Berlin. The article discusses the issue of non-compliance and its impact in thalassemia. A pdf of this article can be downloaded by clicking here.
