A personalized medication management platform (PMMP) to improve medication adherence: A randomized control trial

Using text message reminders in health care services: A narrative literature review

“…Medication regimen adherence was the intervention outcome for 52 of these studies, non-medication treatment adherence was the intervention outcome for 24, and vaccination adherence was the intervention outcome for 21. Medical compliance reminders were found to improve (e.g., taking medication at a scheduled time, completing non-medication follow-up treatment, completing a vaccination regimen) when using an SMS-reminder intervention in 85% (83/97) of studies ( Akhu-Zaheya and Shiyab, 2017 ; Anthony et al, 2015 ; Armstrong et al, 2009 ; Arora et al, 2012 ; Baker et al, 2015 ; Balato et al, 2013 ; Bangure et al, 2015 ; Berenson et al, 2016 ; Chow et al, 2015 ; Chung et al, 2015 ; Cocosila et al, 2009 ; da Costa et al, 2012 ; Davey et al, 2016 ; Dick et al, 2011 ; Downing et al, 2013 ; Dowshen et al, 2013 ; Fang and Deng, 2017 ; Ferguson et al, 2015 ; Foreman et al, 2012 ; Franklin et al, 2006 ; Garofalo et al, 2016 ; Gengiah et al, 2014 ; Georgette et al, 2017 ; Granholm et al, 2012 ; Gu et al, 2016 ; Guy et al, 2013 ; Haji et al, 2016 ; Hanauer et al, 2009 ; Hardy et al, 2011 ; Hirst et al, 2017 ; Hofstetter et al, 2015a ; Hofstetter et al, 2015b ; Huang et al, 2017 ; Huang et al, 2013 ; Johnson et al, 2016 ; Jordan et al, 2015 ; Kamal et al, 2015 ; Keränen and Liikkanen, 2013 ; Khorshid et al, 2014 ; Kollmann et al, 2007 ; Lewis et al, 2013 ; Ludlow et al, 2009 ; Lv et al, 2012 ; Maduka and Tobin-West, 2013 ; Mao et al, 2008 ; Matheson et al, 2014 ; Miloh et al, 2009 ; Miloh et al, 2017 ...…”

Determinants of Primary Nonadherence to Medications Prescribed by General Practitioners Among Adults in Hungary: Cross-Sectional Evaluation of Health Insurance Data

“…Some interventions tested globally to enhance adherence included simple dose adjustment and reduction of the number of medications (Burke et al, 1997; Schedlbauer et al, 2010), reminders and improved scheduling (Claxton et al, 2001), and educational interventions (Kuntz et al, 2014; Torres-Robles et al, 2018). Other interventions included more comprehensive and complex strategies, such as expansion of the pharmacist role in health care, enhancement of patient–health care provider communication and trust, provision of services (Lu et al, 2008; Banning, 2009), proper description of disease and medications (Osterberg and Blaschke, 2005; Huang et al, 2017), habit analysis and management of side effects (Omran et al, 2012; Conn and Ruppar, 2017), patient follow-up, social and behavioral support and motivation (DiMatteo et al, 2012; Varshney, 2013; Kuntz et al, 2014; Ferdinand et al, 2017), and acting on patients’ feedback (Farris et al, 2016).…”

Enhancing Primary Adherence to Prescribed Medications through an Organized Health Status Assessment-Based Extension of Primary Healthcare Services

“…More complex and comprehensive strategies have also been implemented and tested. Such strategies have included improving the patient–physician relationship, communication, and trust; expanding and emphasizing the pharmacist role in primary healthcare [9,27,38]; increasing awareness of the patient regarding his/her disease and medications [39,40]; controlling medication-related side effects and performing patient habit analyses [26,41]; examining patient motivation, support, and follow-up [8,13,14,42]; and keeping the patient in the core of the healthcare process and considering his/her feedback [43].…”
