Abstract:

Abstract Reminders are often part of interventions to help older people adhere to complicated medication regimes. Computer-generated (synthetic) speech is ideal for tailoring reminders to different medication regimes. Since synthetic speech may be less intelligible than human speech, in particular under difficult listening conditions, we assessed how well older people can recall synthetic speech reminders for medications. 44 participants aged 50–80 with no cognitive impairment recalled reminders for one or four medications after a short distraction. We varied background noise, speech quality,

Abstract:

Abstract Adherence to analgesics needs to be monitored to ensure optimal pain management and avert adverse events among older adults. mHealth reminders may encourage adherence behavior, but it is unclear if medication use ensues following the reminder. The purpose of this study was to trial the use of medication event monitoring to verify the initiation of scheduled pain medication after an mHealth reminder. Methods: N=15 adults 55 and older created Google Assistant reminders to take their scheduled pain medication and write in a pain diary. A sub sample of n= 5 participants used a Medication

ABSTRACTA 79-year-old female with type 2 diabetes and mild cognitive impairment (Clinical Dementia Rating score of 0.5) was supported with medication with regard to the daily requirements using a medication reminder device. Use of this device not only improved her medication adherence, hemoglobin A1c level, and self-confidence but also reduced caregiver's burden. For elderly patients with such diseases, loading the device with medication, providing advance notice before mechanical reminders for a short period after the device's activation, monitoring unused medication, and adjusting the timing

Abstract:

The need for MedSync mobile app and device stems from the challenges faced by elderly and busy people in medication management. Forgetfulness is a common problem among older adults who need to take multiple medications at different times of the day. Age-related cognitive decline makes it increasingly difficult to remember medication schedules. Similarly, busy people often juggle multiple responsibilities and may forget to take medication in the midst of their busy lives. In addition, the psychology of the human mind plays an important role in medication non-compliance. Some people have the min

Abstract:

Background: Pregnant and breastfeeding Women Living with HIV (WLHIV) often have difficulties in reaching adequate levels of adherence (>95%) to Antiretroviral treatment. “Forgetting” is the most commonly mentioned reason. Sending reminders via SMS is expected to improve adherence. We conducted a pilot study to investigate acceptability, user experience and technical feasibility of sending reminder-SMS to WLHIV. Methods: This was a 6-months observational pilot-study among WLHIV attending antenatal and postnatal care at Kilimanjaro Christian Medical Centre in Moshi, Tanzania. Women received a

According to WHO, only 50% of patients adhere to chronic therapy. The problem of non-adherence has persisted over decades. Over 197 million Indian households have TV sets, and on average Indians spend 3 hours, 44 minutes watching television. A TV programme is used as intervention by patients to improve medication adherence rates. The objective of the research is to find the effect of TV programmes as a form of reminder in improving medication adherence. With the help of a structured questionnaire, the information about medication adherence behaviour was obtained from patients suffering from di
