This cross‐sectional study sought to identify the prevalence of medication adherence and to explore the role of depression and self‐efficacy on medication adherence among patients with coronary artery diseases. Participants were recruited among outpatients who successfully underwent primary percutaneous coronary intervention ( PCI ) with drug‐eluting stent at academic medical centres in C heonan, S outh K orea. Medication adherence was evaluated by the eight‐item M orisky M edication A dherence S cale using a validated K orean version. Prevalence of non‐adherent to medication was 60.3%. With non‐depressed and high self‐efficacy as reference and after adjusting for age and gender, the models showed that those with depression and low self‐efficacy are more likely to be non‐adherent to medication. Therefore, future studies should focus on the development of interventions designed to reduce depression and increase self‐efficacy for improving patient adherence to cardiovascular medications following PCI .
