简要总结
Monitoring of biologic treatment in patients with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) is important given the increased risk of infections. In this study we aim to evaluate the use of a mobile application to guide IBD patients and facilitate the monitoring of biologic treatment.
详细描述
Biologic treatment can induce and maintain remission in patients with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). However, biologics are associated with increased risk of infections. Therefore, it is important to regularly monitor patients during the course of therapy. This process can be time consuming for patients as well as clinicians. Mobile applications, have the potential to guide patients and facilitate monitoring of biologic treatment. In this study we aim to evaluate the use of a mobile application to guide IBD patients during biologic treatment. Adult patients with diagnosis of IBD treated with biologics will be included. The mobile application with personalised content will give patients information about their treatment, reminders for example when blood tests and questionnaires to check for adverse events.

结局指标
主要结局
Adherence
时间窗: 6 months
The adherence of patients to reminders will be evaluated by checking time of blood tests as recorded in the electronic medical record and log data from administered questionnaires.
Patient satisfaction
时间窗: 6 months
All patients will be asked to complete questions about satisfaction with the mobile application, the information in the app and the user-friendliness of the app. This will be measured with a 7-point likert scale after using the application for ± 6 months. We will also ask patients about their overall satisfaction of care before and after implementation of the application using a visual analogue scale (VAS) scale 0 - 10.
Actual use - frequency
时间窗: 6 months
Use will be monitored with log data of the application. We will look at frequency of use of the application.
