Mobile Health Intervention for Active Tuberculosis

Status Completed

Clinical Trial Summary

The purpose of this study is to evaluate and further refine a mobile support tool for patients receiving treatment for active tuberculosis. Half of participants will receive support and monitoring using a mobile phone software application and usual care, while the other half will receive usual care.

Clinical Trial Description

Tuberculosis (TB) remains a top ten leading cause of death globally despite it being a largely curable disease. New effective treatment supervision strategies are needed particularly in low-resource high TB burden settings and a potential solution is in the hands of nearly every patient - a mobile phone. Modern modular design mobile phone software applications ("apps") hold great promise to address this unmet need. Current technologies allows for rapid design modification based on end user needs, implementation of native operating system (e.g., Android) versions for users with inconsistent internet access, and the integration of the patients' experiences with electronic health records using industry standards. Apps can perform multiple functions (e.g., automated reminders, symptom tracking, secure messaging, multi-media education). To date, few TB related apps have focused on patients as users, and none support patient engagement in self-management of their care or direct adherence monitoring. The research objectives are to understand end user needs and other stakeholder needs to build, refine, and pilot test an app to support patients self-administering treatment for active TB. ;
