However, when it comes to communication with a patient, his consent, implementation of appointments, then the party of interaction is supposed to be an adult. In this regard, the paediatric patient is represented by a child-adult alliance, which allows us to speak of a 'complex patient'. At the same time, his personal agency (the ability to independently formulate a complaint, accept appointments and achieve compliance) changes with the age of a child, coming to him from an adult. This determines the efficacy of screening as well as the main tactics of interaction between the doctor and the patient, explanation, and compliance. Based on the theory of periodization of the personality development, answers are given to the questions: who, a child or an adult, formulates a complaint, who accepts the explanation and who is the subject to compliance? It has been shown that in early childhood (up to 3 years) the patient's subjectivity in the formulation of a complaint and a picture of the disease, the perception of prescriptions and adherence to compliance is provided by the parent. During the pre-school (3-7 years) and primary school (7-11 years) periods, the picture is mosaic: the doctor compares the opinion of the parent and his child to get a picture of the disease, he gives prescriptions to the parent and/or to the child, so both of them can be a subject to compliance. And only in adolescence (12-17 years) a child can be almost a completely independent subject in all aspects of interaction in the doctor-patient system.

© Russian Association of Endocrinologists, 2018. This review examined the current problem of low adherence to treatment in patients with chronic diseases, particularly type 2 diabetes mellitus. According to the definition of the World Health Organization, 'adherence to treatment' is the degree to which a patient's behaviour corresponds to the doctor's recommendations with respect to medications and implementation of dietary advice and/or lifestyle changes. The current medical literature includes a large number of scientific publications devoted to the study of various factors that lead to low adherence to treatment. The term 'barriers' is most often used to designate these factors. The first part of this work contains an analysis of the main factors that impede compliance to the doctor's recommendations, such as socioeconomic and psychological (personal) barriers related to the disease itself, the peculiarities of its treatment and the organisation of medical care (the health care system). The second part of this review examines the different theoretical models of patient behaviour and strategies that improve adherence to treatment. Most researchers believe that there is an unsatisfactory (low) adherence to treatment and that none of the existing intervention strategies can improve adherence to treatment among all patients. The cornerstone of the entire diabetes management system is the training of patients within the framework of developed structured programmes. Conversely, success depends on the individual approach, the course of the disease and the mandatory consideration of the individual psychological characteristics of each person. Establishment of a partnership built on trust between a doctor and a patient contributes to greater patient satisfaction with treatment and improved adherence, and this relationship ultimately affects the treatment efficacy and clinical outcomes.
