- Lead Sponsor
- University of Michigan
- Brief Summary
This is a multiple site, randomized study that will assess the effects of personalized eHealth education and motivational-interviewing-based counseling on patient adherence to physician follow-up appointments.
- Detailed Description
The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the effects of personalized eHealth education and motivational-interviewing-based counseling on adherence to glaucoma follow-up care compared to standard education delivered by a trained staff member. Participants will be randomized in a 1:1 ratio to either standard education and care navigation or eHealth education, counseling and care navigation. The outcome measure of the participant seeing an Ophthalmologist for follow up care within 3 months was increased to 6 months. This modification was made due to ophthalmology visit appointments not being available within the 3 month timeframe.
