Official title
Leveraging mHealth to Enable and Adapt Community Health Worker Strategies to Improve TB/HIV Patient Outcomes in South Africa (LEAP-TB-SA) Trial
Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
mHealth solutions designed to support affordable human resources for health, such as community health workers (CHWs), offer the opportunity to reimagine a patient-centered, system-level solution that may radically change care models in low resource settings. The 'leap' of m-health is most potent and practical in settings where desktop-based infrastructure is lacking and hard-wired internet connectivity is unavailable. Investigators have demonstrated the feasibility of mHealth and human resource solutions in South Africa and shown marked improvements in screening, linkage and treatment initiation as well as supporting patient adherence through video DOT (vDOT) and early identification of treatment related toxicity. Investigators' strategies have evaluated solutions for individual cascade steps through TB and HIV smartphone and tablet-based m-health applications implemented by a CHW. This study combines these individual cascade step approaches into an innovative TB/HIV cascade intervention study entitled, "Leveraging mHealth to enable and adapt community health worker strategies to improve TB/HIV patient outcomes in South Africa (LEAP-TB-SA) Trial."
