    The objective of this research was to determine the relationship between risk factors and treatment adherence in patients with chronic diseases at the Military Geriatric Hospital, Lima, 2023. Methodology: The method was hypothetical-deductive, with a quantitative approach, basic research, non-experimental design, cross-sectional, and correlational. The population consisted of six thousand, and the sample comprised 373 elderly patients. The survey technique was applied to them, using a questionnaire as the instrument for data collection. The data were statistically analyzed, and hypothesis testing was applied for comparison. Results: It was observed that patients with chronic diseases and a high level of risk factors showed a therapeutic adherence rate of 16.1%, while patients with a low level of risk factors showed a low adherence rate of 21.7%." Therapeutic adherence (Cramer's V = 0.519; p = 0.000 < 0.05). Conclusion: The relationship between risk factors and treatment adherence in patients with chronic diseases was determined; that is, a higher risk factor leads to greater therapeutic adherence in geriatric patients.
