Clinical Trial Summary

The AMOR-Kentucky study will examine the impact of a pharmacist-physician patient-centered medication therapy management deprescribing intervention to address inappropriate medication use in patients with cognitive impairment in underserved, lower socioeconomic populations in rural Appalachian Kentucky. The results of this study will provide valuable insights on how to expand and implement deprescribing interventions using telemedicine to reduce the prevalence and the associated healthcare costs of medication-related problems in patients with mild cognitive impairment, Alzheimer's disease and other dementias in rural areas throughout the US. The investigators will assess the potential use of telemedicine in this population by performing an initial single arm, unblinded study of the medication therapy management (MTM) describing intervention in rural/underserved Kentucky Appalachian populations with cognitive impairment and/or dementia using potentially inappropriate medications (n=50). Following initial recruitment and clinical evaluation, engaged participants will have their medication list reviewed by a pharmacist-clinician team to identify targets for deprescribing intervention. The intervention will be engaged remotely with the participant and their caregiver, and the MTM team at 4 weeks post initial evaluation, and then reinforced at a 3-month timepoint. This approach will be carried forward through a telemedicine practice at University of Kentucky that is comprised of approximately 500 patient-caregiver dyads throughout rural areas of Appalachian Kentucky.
