Transplant Regimen Adherence for Kidney Recipients by Engaging Information Technologies: The TAKE IT Trial
In Brief
A clinical study evaluating TAKE IT Strategy for Kidney Transplant. Completed, enrolled 449 participants across 2 sites.
Detailed Summary
The investigators will evaluate a technology-enabled strategy designed to promote medication adherence, routinely monitor regimen use, and mobilize appropriate transplant center resources to respond early to kidney transplant recipients demonstrating inadequate adherence.
Study Details
Timeline
Interventions
The TAKE IT Strategy includes: 1. Programming the electronic health record (EHR) to organize/simplify daily regimen schedules and generate electronic, tangible, print, low literacy medication education materials at every clinical encounter. 2. SMS text-messaging to remind patients when to take all their medicine. 3. A web-based patient portal that requests patients to periodically report upon their medication use, providing a continuous link between the transplant center and patient beyond routine in-person visits. 4. EHR notifications directed to the transplant center nurse coordinator if an adherence-related problem is identified by the web-based portal assessment, who then can activate appropriate staff to respond.
