Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
This study will develop and test a novel, technology based intervention to improve treatment adherence among youth living with HIV who are taking antiretroviral medication. In the intervention youth will access an engaging and immersive app/game on their smartphone.Data about the opening of the smart pill bottle will be transferred from the bottle cap wirelessly and will trigger a text message about their adherence. While gaming, participants will gain information about their health, improve motivation for ARV and medical appointment adherence, and practice healthy behaviors. If the Intervention is found to be effective, it can be tested in a larger study and then disseminated to other youth on antiretroviral medications.
