Clinical Trial Summary

The purpose of this study is to investigate the efficacy of the Karie Automated Medication delivery device in enhancing medication adherence among a group of elderly patients with mild to moderate cognitive decline.


Clinical Trial Description

Given the risks associated with poor adherence and the apparent contribution of good adherence to reducing hospitalizations and emergency department (ED) visits, interventions for promoting good adherence should be pursued. To this end, a number of devices have been developed to promote medication adherence, though with limited success due to reliability, cost, etc. The purpose of this study is to investigate the efficacy of the Karie Automated Medication Delivery Device in enhancing medication adherence among a group of community-dwelling patients immediately following discharge from inpatient rehabilitation. This study will utilize a multi-site randomized controlled trial design. One week prior to discharge from inpatient rehab, consenting patients will be randomly assigned to receive medication self-management education only (SME) or medication self-management education + Karie (SME+K). Both sites (West Park Healthcare Centre, and CapitalCare) will recruit 150 participants for the study. At each site, 75 patients will be in the intervention group (SME + Karie) and 75 will be in the control group (SME only). ;
