Official title
An Assessment of the Impact of Motivational Interviewing Via Glaucoma Educator on Glaucoma Treatment Adherence and Persistence
Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
The investigators are studying motivational interviewing (MI). MI is a counseling method to help people adopt healthy behaviors. The investigators will test whether MI improves patients' accurate use of glaucoma eye drops. The investigators will train eye clinic staff called glaucoma educators to use MI. Up to 250 patients at 3 clinics will be recruited. All patients will receive their usual eye care. Based on chance, some patients will also be supported by a glaucoma educator. The groups will be compared on medication adherence using micro-electro-mechanical system(MEMS). MEMS are electronic bottle caps that track when a medication bottle is opened. Patients will be aware that their medication use is tracked. The groups will also be compared on treatment value, outcomes, and cost. The investigators will also collect data on variables that may predict medication adherence.
