Music for Health Project (MFH)

12 de noviembre de 2019 actualizado por: Marcia McDonnell Holstad, DSN, FNP-BC, Emory University

An Audio Music Self-Management Program to Improve ART Adherence in Rural GA

The overall goal of this project is to use technology to improve adherence to antiretroviral therapy (ART)and increase access to ART adherence care for those HIV+ persons living in rural areas. The LIVE Network audio music program mobile application (app) is innovative, practical, portable, and could be rapidly scaled up to address the adherence self-management needs of rural groups nationwide. If successful, the impact on HIV care will be immense and could transform the delivery of HIV self-management and adherence education by overcoming barriers of geographic isolation, transportation, stigma and confidentiality in this vulnerable group.

Descripción detallada

The project has two primary aims and one exploratory aim. 1.0 Revise and adapt the Live Network (LN) program and manual for rural persons living with HIV/AIDS (PLWHA) and develop into a mobile application.

2.0 Conduct a randomized controlled trial to test the efficacy of the program. When compared with an educational music control condition at 3, 6, and 9 months post-baseline, those randomized to the LN will have: H1: Significantly higher mean antiretroviral therapy (ART) adherence rates (measured by pill counts, self report).

H2: Significantly higher mean levels of ART drug levels in hair sample analyses.

H3: Significantly better clinical indicators: higher mean CD4 lymphocyte counts and percents, a larger proportion achieving virologic suppression (proportion with HIV RNA PCR <50 copies/ml), and smaller proportion with evidence of drug resistance, all as measured by medical record review.

3.0 Explore: a) the effects of LN on symptoms and symptom management; b) the roles of self-efficacy, outcome expectancies, and personal goal setting as mediators, and depression and health literacy as moderators of adherence.

Armas e Intervenciones

Grupo de participantes/brazo
Intervención / Tratamiento
Comparador activo: Educational music mobile app
A prerecorded program of songs on various topics in a mobile phone application (app). It is designed to provide education about non-health related topics and will be equivalent in length to the intervention app.
Conductual: mobile phone application
Experimental: Live Network mobile phone App
The LN is a prerecorded mobile phone application (app). It employs a radio talk show format in which a Disc Jockey entertains HIV medication-, adherence-, and self-management-related questions and comments from callers and poses them to expert care providers, whose responses to these questions are augmented by songs that shed additional light on these issues.
Conductual: mobile phone application

¿Qué mide el estudio?

Medidas de resultado primarias

Medida de resultado
Medida Descripción
Periodo de tiempo
Change in Antiretroviral Therapy (ART) Adherence Rates
Periodo de tiempo: Baseline, 3 months post-baseline, 6 months post-baseline and 9 months post-baseline
Adherence rate was measured with the Antiretroviral General Adherence Scale (AGAS) which measures the general ease and ability to take one's medication as prescribed in the past 30 days. It includes 5 items scored 1 to 6, with the possible scores for this instrument ranging from 5 to 30, and higher scores reflect better adherence.
Baseline, 3 months post-baseline, 6 months post-baseline and 9 months post-baseline

Medidas de resultado secundarias

Medida de resultado
Medida Descripción
Periodo de tiempo
Change in Antiretroviral (ART) Drug Levels in Hair Sample Analyses.
Periodo de tiempo: 3, 6, and 9 months post-baseline
No data available due to inability of the lab to accurately extract drug from hair.
3, 6, and 9 months post-baseline
Clinical Indicator: Change in Mean CD4 Percentage
Periodo de tiempo: Baseline, 3 months post-intervention, 6 months post-intervention, 9 months post-intervention, 9 to 12 months post-intervention
CD4 count is a test that measures the number of CD4 cells in your blood. CD4 cells, also known as T cell lymphocytes, are white blood cells that fight infection and play an important role in your immune system. A CD4 count is used to check the health of the immune system in people infected with HIV (human immunodeficiency virus). The count measures the number of CD4 cells in a small sample of blood. The percent of CD4 cells measure the percentage of all lymphocytes that are CD4 cells. The study assesses the percentage of CD4 lymphocytes over time.
Baseline, 3 months post-intervention, 6 months post-intervention, 9 months post-intervention, 9 to 12 months post-intervention
Clinical Indicator: Number of Participants With Non-detectable Viral Load
Periodo de tiempo: Baseline, 3 months post-intervention, 6 months post-intervention, 9 months post-intervention, 9 to 12 months post-intervention
Change in number of participants with viral load presented as number of copies if <50 copies versus ≥ 50 copies. Subjects were coded as having non-detectable viral loads if the "load" was < 50 copies. The analyses performed reflects the number of subjects with non-detectable load (<50) at Baseline, 3 months post-intervention, 6 months post-intervention, 9 months post-intervention, 9 to 12 months post-intervention.
