Impact of a Mobile Application-Based Medication Reminder on Treatment Adherence Among Patients With Chronic Diseases and Memory Impairment: A Nursing Leadership Perspective

Recruiting now · Not applicable

Conditions studied: Chronic Disease, Memory Impairment

In brief

This study aims to evaluate the impact of using a mobile application-based medication reminder on medication adherence among patients diagnosed with chronic diseases and memory impairment. Adherence to prescribed therapy is a significant challenge for this patient population, often leading to poor health outcomes and increased healthcare costs. From a nursing leadership perspective, innovative digital solutions can play a crucial role in supporting patient self-management. Using a quasi-experimental design, the study will investigate whether a customized mobile reminder system can effectively improve adherence rates and support patients in managing their therapeutic regimens.
