Intervention With WhatsApp Messaging to Compare the Effect of Self-Designed Messages and Standardized Messages in Adherence to Antiretroviral Treatment in Young People Living With HIV in a Hospital in Lima, Peru: Protocol for a Nonblinded Randomized Controlled Trial

Intervention With WhatsApp Messaging to Compare the Effect of Self-Designed Messages and Standardized Messages in Adherence to Antiretroviral Treatment in Young People Living With HIV in a Hospital in Lima, Peru: Protocol for a Nonblinded Randomized Controlled Trial

HIV programs continue in search of effective interventions to increase adherence to antiretroviral therapy (ART), especially for young people living with HIV/AIDS. This group faces increasing rates of new HIV infections [1] and heightened vulnerability to drivers of antiretroviral resistance, such as suboptimal ART adherence [2], ART abandonment, and non-retention in care [3].

Prerequisites for Cost-Effective Home Blood Pressure Telemonitoring: Early Health Economic Analysis

Prerequisites for Cost-Effective Home Blood Pressure Telemonitoring: Early Health Economic Analysis

Despite lifestyle and drug therapy interventions, a significant proportion of patients with hypertension remains inadequately controlled, which is mostly the result of poor medication adherence [2]. Home blood pressure telemonitoring (HBPT) has been proposed to improve adherence [2,3] by allowing patients to measure their blood pressure at home while being remotely monitored by their health care providers.

Enhancing Adherence to Continuous Positive Airway Pressure Therapy in Patients With Obstructive Sleep Apnea Using Augmented Reality: Protocol for a Randomized Controlled Trial

Enhancing Adherence to Continuous Positive Airway Pressure Therapy in Patients With Obstructive Sleep Apnea Using Augmented Reality: Protocol for a Randomized Controlled Trial

Data from CPAP devices (eg, Air Sense 10 Auto Set) will be collected at T1, T2, and T3, tracking the percentage of nights meeting adherence criteria. Adherence refers to the patient’s adherence to CPAP therapy, which means using CPAP for more than 70% of the total sleep time during the night, with a minimum duration of 4 hours.

Adapting a Text Messaging Intervention to Improve Diabetes Medication Adherence in a Spanish-Speaking Population: Qualitative Study

Adapting a Text Messaging Intervention to Improve Diabetes Medication Adherence in a Spanish-Speaking Population: Qualitative Study

While interventions that address patient-reported barriers to diabetes medication adherence can improve glycemic management [20,21], interventions that address barriers to diabetes medication adherence of relevance to Latino adults with T2 D are lacking.

Integration of a Mental Health App (e-MICHI) Into a Blended Treatment of Depression in Adolescents: Single-Group, Naturalistic Feasibility Trial

Integration of a Mental Health App (e-MICHI) Into a Blended Treatment of Depression in Adolescents: Single-Group, Naturalistic Feasibility Trial

Numerous studies have reported high dropout rates and low adherence levels for nonguided e-health interventions [9,10]. DHIs that include some form of personalized support, for example, from psychotherapeutic professionals, seem to be more efficacious due to higher adherence rates [11]. In addition to adherence, transferability presents a further challenge.

Centering Youth Voice in the Adaptation of an mHealth Intervention for Young Adults With HIV in South Texas, United States: Human-Centered Design Approach

Centering Youth Voice in the Adaptation of an mHealth Intervention for Young Adults With HIV in South Texas, United States: Human-Centered Design Approach

The platform includes daily medication adherence tracking, mood and stress self-assessment, appointment reminders, secure messaging with clinic providers, and an anonymous online peer support network [25]. We used human-centered design thinking processes in this adaptation to ensure young adults with HIV input, as interventions are more effective when impacted communities are involved in their design and implementation [5].

Clinical, Psychological, Physiological, and Technical Parameters and Their Relationship With Digital Tool Use During Cardiac Rehabilitation: Comparison and Correlation Study

Clinical, Psychological, Physiological, and Technical Parameters and Their Relationship With Digital Tool Use During Cardiac Rehabilitation: Comparison and Correlation Study

Patients were asked to answer 17 questions concerning their adherence to cardiac rehabilitation, which were based on the Exercise Adherence Rating Scale (EARS) [25]. Eleven out of the 17 questions concerned reasons for nonadherence, while the remaining 6 questions focused on adherence. EARS was translated to German and slightly adapted according to the study needs (refer to the self-reported adherence to the exercise program section for the detailed questions).

Determining the Prioritization of Behavior Change Techniques for Long-Term Stroke Rehabilitation: Delphi Survey Study

Determining the Prioritization of Behavior Change Techniques for Long-Term Stroke Rehabilitation: Delphi Survey Study

This uncovers a gap between current stroke rehabilitation practice and the potential of BCTs, as it leaves critical questions as to which BCTs should be prioritized when supporting the long-term treatment adherence required. Further, this reinforces the relevance and urgency of addressing long-term behavior change and treatment adherence specifically for stroke rehabilitation.

Participant Adherence in Repeated-Dose Clinical Studies Using Video-Based Observation: Retrospective Data Analysis

Participant Adherence in Repeated-Dose Clinical Studies Using Video-Based Observation: Retrospective Data Analysis

In all cohorts, high adherence was mandatory to achieve the study objectives, and participants provided informed consent before participation. This is likely the primary reason for the relatively high adherence observed across cohorts compared with that observed in later clinical trials or real-world settings [5,26]. Nevertheless, the clear benefits of using a VSMS were consistent with previous studies of similar systems [16-18,20-25,27-30].

Evaluation of the Tu’Washindi Na PrEP Intervention to Reduce Gender-Based Violence and Increase Preexposure Prophylaxis Uptake and Adherence Among Kenyan Adolescent Girls and Young Women: Protocol for a Cluster Randomized Controlled Trial

Evaluation of the Tu’Washindi Na PrEP Intervention to Reduce Gender-Based Violence and Increase Preexposure Prophylaxis Uptake and Adherence Among Kenyan Adolescent Girls and Young Women: Protocol for a Cluster Randomized Controlled Trial

Studies have found that IPV and other partner-related social harms are associated with 1.5- to 2.5-fold higher risk of poor adherence to oral Pr EP and the dapivirine ring for HIV prevention. Similar to HIV treatment and contraception [19,20,24-29], IPV and relationship inequality introduce barriers to uptake of and adherence to Pr EP at multiple levels.
