Texting Atopic Dermatitis Patients to Optimize Learning and EASI Scores (TADPOLES)

21. august 2017 opdateret af: Christine Lauren, Columbia University
The purpose of this study is to determine if sending text messages with treatment reminders and facts regarding atopic dermatitis (AD) to caretakers of children with AD will have a positive effect on the disease severity.

Detaljeret beskrivelse

Atopic dermatitis (AD) is a common, chronic, and debilitating disease that tends to present in children under age 2 and has a waxing and waning course. Poor adherence to treatment is the primary preventable contributor towards adverse outcomes such as infection, hospitalization, permanent disfigurement, and disruptions in normal childhood psychological development. The burden of care for these patients often falls upon parents, who may have difficulty incorporating the necessary daily treatments into the family's lifestyle. Thus, investigating ways of improving adherence could have a significant impact on a patient's long term prognosis and the family's ability to understand and adjust to the demands of AD.Text message reminders with embedded health literacy information have been shown to improve vaccination rates in children and caregivers have reported increased satisfaction with this means of communication.

This study aims to assess whether text message reminders with information about AD are an effective way to improve treatment adherence and provide disease specific information to caregivers of children with AD. The measure of AD severity will be the Eczema Area and Severity Index (EASI) score. Health literacy with regard to AD will be assessed via in-office survey.This study will involve children age 0-6 with newly diagnosed AD and their primary caregivers. The subjects will be randomized to standard care or text message reminder group. All study participants will be asked to complete a survey after their initial evaluation and after their follow up visit on the same day they are in the office. The text message group will receive text messages with information and treatment reminders. All participants will receive the standard of care with regard to AD.

If this study demonstrates that text message reminders can improve EASI scores in AD patients it could lead to a significant change in how these patients are managed. Fewer complications from episodic flares, infections, and other sequelae may lessen the burden of this disease for both patients and their caregivers. Text messaging is an inexpensive, noninvasive, and broadly applicable tool that is worth studying for the purpose of improving treatment adherence and disease literacy.

Våben og indgreb

Deltagergruppe / Arm
Intervention / Behandling
Eksperimentel: Text Message Intervention + Standard Care
Enrolled patients and their caregivers who are randomized to this group will receive the usual standard of care for atopic dermatitis patients treated at this institution as well as daily text messages with information about atopic dermatitis and treatment reminders. 1-2 times/week they will receive a message asking if they were able to complete their treatments in the last day. They will respond with 1=yes, 2=no, 3= I have questions about the treatment. Those who respond with 3 will be sent the contact information for the office. No other communications will be sent through text messages. Caregivers will take two in-office surveys: one upon enrollment, and one follow-up survey at the follow-up visit. Patient EASI Score will be assessed by the pediatric dermatologist and initial and follow up exam.

Tidsramme
EASI Score
Tidsramme: Up to 6 weeks
Patient EASI Score (0-72) will be determined at initial and follow up exam. Mean differences in EASI scores between arms will be assessed using t-tests since EASI scores are used to measure the severity of a patient's atopic dermatitis.
Up to 6 weeks
