简要总结
The goal of this interventional study is to assess whether an in-office, language-concordant instructional app improves drop regimen recall in a population of glaucoma patients who are on multi-drop regimens.
Participants will be divided into two groups -- those who use the app and those who do not. The app will have narrated information regarding the drop regimen, a quiz to test understanding of the regimen, and will enable a graphical printout of the eye drops and schedule.
At one month, both groups will be assessed on their eye drop regimen recall.
详细描述
Specific Aim: To investigate whether a language-concordant instructional application improves drop regimen recall in population of glaucoma patients at a 1-month follow-up period.
App features
- Pictorial representation of drops (color-coded) and schedule.
- Quiz to assess understanding of the regimen.
- Narrated instructions (language-concordant) on how and when (frequency and eye laterality) to take each drop.
- Graphical print-out of the regimen.
Study design
- Study design: Randomized study, two groups: (1) patients that use the app, and (2) patients that do not use the app.

结局指标
主要结局
Percentage accuracy of drop regimen recall
时间窗: 1 month follow up from time of intervention
This will be assessed through questions querying which drops the patients are taking, the number of times they are taking each drop, and the laterality of each drop. Each answer/drop will be individual recorded, and then total number of correct answers will be divided by the total number of questions.
次要结局
- Overall medication adherence, assessed through the modified Morisky Adherence Scale, a widely published scale for general medication adherence(1 month follow up from time of intervention)
