Health behavior is defined as "behaviors expressed by individuals to protect, maintain or promote their health status. For example, proper diet, and appropriate exercise are activities perceived to influence health status. Life style is closely associated with health behavior and factors influencing life style are socioeconomic, educational, and cultural."[1] Health behavior includes the concept of patient compliance, which is defined as "voluntary cooperation of the patient in following a prescribed regimen."[2]
How to detect noncompliance
A systematic review by the Rational Clinical Examination concluded that missing appointment, not improving with treatment, and counting pills are the best methods to detect non-compliance.[3]
Methods to improve health behavior
Health promotion
Health promotion is "encouraging consumer behaviors most likely to optimize health potentials (physical and psychosocial) through health information, preventive programs, and access to medical care."
Internet websites for health promotion may improve health behavior according to a randomized controlled trial.[4]
Access to medical record
A randomized controlled trial found that a 20-minute sessions before regularly scheduled visits in which "patients were helped to read their medical record and coached to ask questions and negotiate medical decisions" improved functional status.[5]
Ongoing feedback
A randomized controlled trial of patients at very high risk of coronary events found that use of two clinical prediction rules (http://www.chiprehab.com/CVD/) for predicting coronary events along with tailored feedback, may improve cholesterol values.[6] In this trial, patients were also shown how their calculated risk changed over time and improved in response to changes in the patients' lifestyle changes and pharmacotherapy.
In the treatment of obesity, daily weighing is associated with better dietary restraint.[7][8]
Simplify medication schedules
Patient participation
