Summary

To evaluate the therapeutic adherence of the patient-family caregiver with non-communicable chronic disease through the hospital transition-discharge plan program in a second level institution in the metropolitan area of Bucaramanga. Methods: The study will be a randomized controlled clinical trial in 100 participants who meet the inclusion criteria, distributed in a 1: 1 ratio for the intervention group and the control group, considering a confidence level of 90%, power of 80% and a reduction of 30%. Expected results: demonstrate the relevance of the program in the target population through the formation of information mechanisms between the parties involved in direct care, the development of skills and safety at home; the timely identification of the risks inherent to clinical conditions or possible complications associated with care, which aim to reduce the burdens related to the health - disease experience; also emphasize the continuity of the treatment established. On the other hand, achieve a more informed professional performance, prepared, transparent, that responds to the needs and expectations of the user in terms of monitoring and comprehensive therapeutic management. Impact: It is expected that this research will be the basis for the protocolization and implementation of the hospital discharge transition plan program in the health institution and subsequently develop a prospective study on a larger scale, which will allow evaluating its impact on the target population in order to reduce the complications, re-admissions and costs derived from the care of chronic patients.
