Abstract

This study examined whether a self-management intervention based on feedback of adherence performance and principles of social cognitive theory improves adherence to antiretroviral dosing schedules. Forty-three individuals with HIV/AIDS who were starting or switching to a new protease inhibitor regimen were randomly assigned to be in a medication self-management program or usual care control group. The self-management program included skills development exercises, three monthly visits for medication consultations, and monthly feedback of adherence performance using electronic monitors on medication bottles. Participants also completed a 40-item questionnaire that measured self-efficacy to take medications, on schedule, in a variety of situations. Logistic regression analysis indicated that individuals in the self-management group were significantly more likely to take 80% or more of their doses each week than individuals in the control group (n=29, OR=7.8, 95% CI=2.2-28.1). Self-management training with feedback of adherence performance is a potentially useful model for improving adherence to complex regimens in HIV/AIDS care.

  • Confidence in one's ability to pursue goals affects how well people adhere to medication across many long-term illnesses.

    “Self-efficacy or confidence in one’s ability to successfully engage in goal-directed behavior has been shown to influence medication adherence across many chronic illnesses.”
  • The VIRAHEP-C self-efficacy measure was a 24-item self-report adapted from validated self-efficacy measures used in the Adult AIDS Clinical Trials Group.

    “The VIRAHEP-C self-efficacy measure was a 24-item self-report measure adapted from previously validated self-efficacy measures created for the Adult AIDS Clinical Trials Group (see Appendix A for the original VIRAHEP-C measure) (19;39) (personal communication, S. Smith, Nov. 11, 2010).”

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
