Filter by:Pharmacy-based PrEP for Young Women who Sell Sex in Zimbabwe is a cluster-randomized control trial and pilot study co-led by Dr. Euphemia Sibanda, Reader (Associate Professor) of Global Health and Epidemiology at Liverpool School of Tropical Medicine, UK and Research Director at the Centre for Sexual Health and HIV Research (CeSHHAR Zimbabwe) and Dr. Sandra McCoy, Professor of Epidemiology and Biostatistics at the University of California, Berkeley. The goal of the proposed study is to optimize, refine and pilot a pharmacy-based PrEP intervention for female sex workers (FSW) in Zimbabwe. Despite efforts to reach the most impacted and vulnerable populations with PrEP, retention rates, particularly among FSW in Africa, are very low. Relatively high levels of uptake indicate that FSW are interested in PrEP and ready to initiate it, but in most cases fewer than 50% of those who initiate return for medication refills by month 4. Pharmacy-based PrEP has the potential to address known barriers to PrEP retention among FSW such as stigma and access, and coupled with a small escalating incentive in the form of a gift card incentive, could also boost motivation for effective use of PrEP.
The goal of this clinical trial is to study the impact of a medication adherence app, CareAide, in adult population diagnosed with chronic diseases in Malaysian population. The main question[s] it aims to answer are: 1. Can CareAide make people take their medications better and improve their health? 2. Can CareAide improve the health of people with chronic diseases? 3. Does using CareAide make people's lives better? 4. Can CareAide save money when managing chronic diseases? 5. How do people feel about using CareAide? Researchers will ask the participants to use the CareAide app for 6 months and compare the group that used the app with the other group which just received the usual treatment. Researchers will check if they do better with their medications, feel healthier, have a better life, and spend less money. They will check this twice, once after 3 months and again after 6 months. adherence, clinical outcomes, quality of life and economic associated with the app with two follow ups at 3 month intervals.
The goal of this clinical trial is to assess the impact of pharmaceutical consultations in older patients having a comprehensive geriatric assessment at geriatric day-clinic. The main question it aims to answer is: What is the impact on patient adherence Participants will benefit from medication history taking, medication review, therapeutic education, shared decision-making and follow-up phone call. Researchers will compare with a control group, benefiting from medication history taking and usual care from the geriatric day-clinic.
This observational study aims to investigate medication adherence and drug-level monitoring of antiretroviral agents in a cohort of people living with HIV in Indonesia. The study is conducted in outpatients receiving tenofovir-based regimens in a university medical centre.
The primary objective of this study is to determine whether coronary computed tomography angiography (CCTA) -based coronary heart disease(CHD) prevention strategy improves lipid-lowering treatment and cardiovascular risk factor control compared with traditional CHD prevention strategy, guided by a cardiovascular risk score.
A pilot feasibility randomized clinical trial comparing a tailored intervention to uniform standard of care will be conducted. A total of 40 AYAs with cancer will be randomized to one of the two programs. Data will be collected to explore the hypotheses that the intervention meets pre-established enrollment, retention, fidelity, and data completion feasibility criteria and that AYAs will rate the intervention as easy to use and acceptable.
Adherence to medications for high blood pressure is key to improving blood pressure control and reducing the impact of cardiovascular disease. This project will test the feasibility of a tailored telehealth intervention to help patients improve adherence to blood pressure medication.
PARTICIPANT CENTERS: 25 hospitals managing routinely acute myocardial infarction (AMI) and representing different regions from Spain will be invited to participate. GENERAL OBJECTIVE: To evaluate if there are differences in the level of adherence to recommended secondary prevention therapies (pharmacological and non-pharmacological) between women and men surviving a type 1 acute myocardial infarction (with obstructive coronary artery disease), its potential consequences, and the potential factors related to that difference, if present. DESIGN: Prospective, matched cohort study of patients hospitalized for a type 1 acute myocardial infarction with evidence of obstructive coronary artery disease who are discharged home alive. Women will be enrolled first, ideally in a consecutive manner, as they are the focus of the study. Men will be recruited subsequently as the comparison group, with 1:1 matching for age and ECG presentation. Matching will be performed locally, in each study site (hospital). All patients will undergo 1-year follow-up with clinical and therapeutic adherence evaluation. - Reference cohort: 500 women discharged alive after a hospitalization for a type 1 acute myocardial infarction with significant coronary artery disease. - Comparator cohort: 500 age (±2 years) and ECG (ST-segment elevation acute myocardial infarction (STEMI) / non-ST-segment elevation acute myocardial infarction (NSTEMI)) locally matched men discharged alive after a hospitalization for a type 1 acute myocardial infarction with significant coronary artery disease.
Can the investigators create an effective way to improve adherence to immunosuppressant medication and reduce rejection, graft loss, and death in adolescents and young adults who have undergone kidney or liver transplantation? The investigators' mobile technology intervention uses real-time electronic pillbox-assessed dose timing and text message prompts to address antirejection medication nonadherence when nonadherence is detected.
SIMAP is a triple-masked randomised trial aimed at assessing whether an automated system of pictograms associated to medical indications results in better comprehension and adherence of said indications. Adult patients with a recent diagnosis of asthma will be randomised to receive a pictographic depiction of their treatments and recommended interventions or standard communication without assistance from their attending physician. Patients will be followed-up for 60 days using the Asthma Control Questionnaire (ACT). The primary endpoint of this study is the degree of asthma control as assessed by the aforementioned questionnaire. Secondary outcomes include the number of hospitalisations, emergency care unit visits and the need to increase bronchodilator therapy as per current Global Initiative for Asthma guidelines. Outcomes will be analysed under the intention-to-treat principle by a statistician unaware of treatment allocation.
