Patient Adherence to Acupuncture Treatment
Improving Treatment Adherence in Acupuncture Patients: A Randomized Controlled Trail
研究概览
详细说明
This randomized controlled trial will deliver two interventions: (1) telephone call reminder and (2) text messaging reminder.
Participants who meet study eligibility criteria based on intake assessment will be recruited and complete baseline assessment immediately after they receive acupuncture treatment. There will be 40 participants in each of the two intervention groups and the no intervention control group.
Participants will be adults who visit the Emperor's College Acupuncture Clinic for a new treatment consultation on the date of the enrollment.
The telephone call and text messaging intervention is a one-time reminder system delivered to the participants based on the study random assignment, three days after the initial visit. A research assistant will be contacting the participants based on the assigned interventions.
There are three data collection points, 1) baseline (during initial visit), 2) 10 days after the initial visit, and 3) 30 days after the initial visit. Data will be collected via a tablet (baseline) and online survey (Day 10 and Day 30) through a secure online survey platform. Baseline assessment will occur prior to randomization, and post-intervention assessments will occur at 10 to 30 days after the initial visit.
Number of follow-up treatments for the same health concern will be collected for all enrolled participants from the participants' clinical record.
