Attention Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder Internet Survey Study in a College Student Population

18 april 2017 uppdaterad av: Wake Forest University Health Sciences

Attention Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) Internet Survey Study in a College Student Population

Attention Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) is a common condition in young adults. There are many safe oral therapies that require daily use to be effective. Because frequent follow-up visits have been shown to increase adherence to medication, we will determine if adherence to oral therapy for ADHD will improve with an intervention involving weekly internet-based contact without an office visit.

The primary aim is to determine the effectiveness of an Internet-based survey in improving adherence to therapy for ADHD. Subjects in this study will be either receive a weekly Internet-based survey assessing the prescribed medication and their ADHD, or to receive standard-of-care therapy in which they will take their medication. The following hypothesis is to be tested: A weekly Internet survey will promote improved adherence to oral ADHD medications.

Detaljerad beskrivning

This is an investigator-blinded, prospective study of subjects diagnosed with ADHD.Forty-four subjects ages 18 years and older will be enrolled. An Internet-based survey will be piloted to evaluate its effect on adherence to oral ADHD medication. Subjects randomized in a 1:1 ratio to the Internet-survey group will log their impression of the state of their disease on a weekly basis. Subjects in both the intervention and control groups will receive standard-of-care medication, stimulants. Adherence to the medication will be assessed using Medication Event Monitoring System (MEMS®) caps, electronic monitors affixed to the medication containers. Investigators and subjects will be blinded to the adherence data until the final (Month 2) treatment visit.

Grupp / Kohort
Internet-based Survey
Assessments completed over the 2-month study will include: disease severity as measured by DSM-V classification and by several validated measures including the ADHD Rating Scale IV with adult prompts, and Clinical Global Impressions, severity and improvement scales; adherence measures (MEMS® and pill counts); validated medication satisfaction measure (the Treatment Satisfaction Questionnaire for Medication); and quality of life measured using the validated WHO Quality of Life Brief measure (WHOQOL-BREF); and responses to a weekly Internet-based questionnaire of adherence and disease severity.
Standard-of-Care
Assessments completed over the 2-month study will include: disease severity as measured by DSM-V classification and by several validated measures including the ADHD Rating Scale IV with adult prompts, and Clinical Global Impressions, severity and improvement scales; adherence measures (MEMS® and pill counts); validated medication satisfaction measure (the Treatment Satisfaction Questionnaire for Medication); and quality of life measured using the validated WHO Quality of Life Brief measure (WHOQOL-BREF);
