Excerpt

When around 1846 the English dentist CT. Stent created a compound capable of alleviating the discomfort of his edentulous patients, he could not have imagined that over the years his name would have lost the capital letter and become synonymous with a "device" made of completely different material, destined to restore patency or prevent the tubular anatomical structures from collapsing. …

Keynote webinar | Spotlight on medication adherence

Live: Thursday 27th June 2024, 18:00-19:30 (CEST)

WHO estimates that half of all patients worldwide are non-adherent to their prescribed medication. The consequences of poor adherence can be catastrophic, on both the individual and population level.

Join our expert panel to discover why you need to understand the drivers of non-adherence in your patients, and how you can optimize medication adherence in your clinics to drastically improve patient outcomes.
