Detaillierte Beschreibung
Young men who have sex with men (YMSM) are disproportionately affected by HIV in the US and fewer than half of youth who are prescribed antiretroviral therapy (ART) achieve viral suppression. Yet few interventions have been developed to address adherence in this population with unique developmental/psychosocial needs. Mobile technology, which is constantly consumed by youth, has the potential to deliver interventions that provide support and feedback in real time as youth go about their daily lives.
This pilot study will test a theory-driven, patient-centered, mobile phone-based intervention (mHealth app) targeting medication adherence among HIV+ youth. It is a three-month prospective feasibility trial to test a medication adherence mobile application consisting of two study visits: baseline and 3-month follow up.
Data collection consists of app usage, Computer Assisted Self-Interview (CASI) for participant satisfaction with the app, demographics, and mental health and risk behaviors, as well as medical chart abstraction of disease biomarkers (CD4, viral load) and pharmacy refill data.

Experimental: HIV medication adherence app
Youth in this arm will receive a medication adherence application to help them remember to take their HIV treatment medication (antiretroviral therapy) as a supplement to current HIV standard of care.
|
A medication adherence mobile application for HIV+ youth.
It is a theory-driven, patient-centered, mobile phone-based intervention targeting medication adherence and engagement in care among HIV+ youth with features including, but not limited to: custom avatar, medication reminders, calendar tracking of medication adherence, and anonymous chat function for social support.
