An Intervention Study to Improve Therapeutic Compliance in Adult Patients With Eosinophilic Esophagitis.

Recruiting now · Not applicable

Conditions studied: Eosinophilic Esophagitis

In brief

In many chronic conditions adherence to long-term treatment is a challenge, also for patients with eosinophilic esophagitis. Interventions, such as behavioral, educational and reminder interventions might improve treatment adherence. With this trial the investigators want to assess the effects of additional education in combination with more frequent follow up and patient reminders on adherence to treatment in adult patients with eosinophilic esophagitis.
