Brief Summary:
The investigators propose using an electronic adherence device that is basically a pill container that can alert when it is not opened at a scheduled time The investigators will use this device to alert the medication user at the time when medication is supposed to be taken if the device did not get opened and a pre-identified social support person or case manager when 2 or 7 consecutive days of nonadherence are detected respectively The investigators call our approach A-Team Antiretroviral Therapy Electronic Adherence Monitoring The aims of this application are to determine the acceptability and feasibility of real-time adherence monitoring in support persons and case managers of African American Men who have sex with Men and to test this approach for these men in a 6-month randomized controlled trial among 54 of these men living with HIV and measure ART adherence and viral suppression the primary outcome
Detailed Description:
African American men who have sex with men AAMSM have high HIV infection rates and disproportionate mortality Critical to ending the HIV epidemic are efforts to reduce HIV transmission by optimizing antiretroviral adherence and suppressing viral load The investigators propose using responsive electronic adherence monitoring EAM in a tiered approach from least to most resource utilization where the EAM device alerts the medication user at the time non-adherence is detected and a pre-identified social support person or case manager when 2 or 7 consecutive days of nonadherence are detected respectively The investigators call our approach A-Team Antiretroviral Therapy Electronic Adherence Monitoring because we provide a team serving a common goal to persons struggling with adherence This intervention draws on the situated Information Motivation Behavioral Skills Model and is informed by emerging social support literature Real-time ART adherence monitoring with a triaged response to missed doses informs the patient in real-time of each potential non-adherence event motivates medication adherence and positively influences adherence behavioral skills resulting in viral suppression This study will be the first to discover how social support persons and case managers perceive this approach what concerns they may have and how they respond to one or multiple notifications of missed doses The aims of this application are to determine the acceptability and feasibility of real-time adherence monitoring in support persons and case managers of AAMSM and to pilot a triaged responsive real-time monitoring adherence intervention for AAMSM The investigators will implement a 6-month pilot randomized controlled trial among 54 AAMSM living with HIV and measure ART adherence and viral suppression the primary outcome Lessons learned from this project may be useful to the field of adherence in these and other persons living with HIV and other diseases
