ImPRoving Adherence to Immunosuppressive Therapy by Mobile Internet Application in Solid Organ Transplant Patients (PRIMA)

April 18, 2019 updated by: Jongwon Ha, Seoul National University Hospital
Nonadherence to immunosuppression is a leading cause of late graft rejection, chronic rejection and graft failure and it is regarded as a preventable cause of graft loss after solid organ transplantation. The purpose of this study is to evaluate whether mobile application for drug medication can enhance the drug adherence rate.
