Teen Adherence in KidnEy Transplant Improving Tracking To Optimize Outcomes - Stage 3
Completed · Not applicable
Conditions studied: Medication Adherence, Kidney Transplantation
In brief
Medication non-adherence is a major problem in kidney transplant recipients; young people 12-24 years of age are at particularly high risk for non-adherence and graft failure compared to young children and adults. Given that poor medication contributes greatly to graft failure, clinically feasible and effective interventions are urgently needed to improve adherence, survival, and quality of life in this population. The broad aim of this prospective, 3-stage, sequential study is to improve medication adherence in adolescent kidney transplant recipients by: 1) adapting the successful Teen Adherence in Kidney transplant Effectiveness of Intervention Trial (TAKE-IT) intervention for use in 'real world' clinical care, 2) designing and testing a new portable electronic pillbox and companion tracking website interface, and 3) preliminary testing of the adapted intervention.
