Assessing barriers to diabetes medication adherence using the Information-Motivation-Behavioral skills model.

ABSTRACT: AIMS:Medication nonadherence is a prevalent and costly problem among patients with type 2 diabetes. Applications of theory can inform and improve adherence promotion interventions. We used a new assessment based on the Information-Motivation-Behavioral skills (IMB) model of adherence to assess patient-reported barriers and test the theoretical model. METHODS:Participants (N?=?237) completed a card sorting task to identify barriers to adherence, a survey, and a hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) test. We identified the most commonly reported adherence barriers and examined associations between patient characteristics and barriers mapped onto each of the IMB constructs. We used structural equation modeling to test the IMB model and determine if barriers as reported on this measure predict patients' self-reported diabetes medication adherence and, in turn, HbA1c levels. RESULTS:The most frequently reported barriers were forgetting doses, thinking brand name medicine works better than generic medicine, not seeing immediate benefit, and feeling burned out with taking diabetes medicine. Younger age and lower health literacy were associated with higher barrier scores for all IMB model constructs. Information and social motivation barriers affected adherence via behavioral skills barriers (indirect effects -0.19, CI [-0.33, -0.09] and -0.24, CI [-0.37, -0.14], respectively). The IMB barrier constructs explained 44% of the variance in diabetes medication adherence which, in turn, was significantly associated with and explained 8% of the variance in HbA1c (both p?

Project description:BackgroundHighly active combination antiretroviral treatment has been shown to markedly improve the health of HIV-infected adolescents and young adults. Adherence to antiretroviral treatment leads to decreased morbidity and mortality and decreases the number of hospitalizations. However, these clinical achievements can only occur when young persons with HIV are adherent to care. Unfortunately, adolescents and young adults have poorer rates of adherence to antiretroviral medications and poorer rates of retention in care than older adults. Novel and engaging digital approaches are needed to help adolescents and young adults living with HIV be adherent to treatment.ObjectiveThe aim of this study was to develop an immersive, action-oriented iPhone gaming intervention to improve adherence to antiretroviral medication and treatment.MethodsGame development was guided by social learning theory, taking into consideration the perspectives of adolescents and young adults living with HIV. A total of 20 adolescents and young adults were recruited from an HIV care clinic in Rhode Island, and they participated in qualitative interviews guided by the information-motivation-behavioral skills model of behavior change. The mean age of participants was 22 years, 60% (12/20) of the participants identified as male, and 60% (12/20) of the sample reported missing a dose of antiretroviral medication in the previous week. Acceptability of the game was assessed with client service questionnaire and session evaluation form.ResultsA number of themes emerged that informed game development. Adolescents and young adults living with HIV desired informational game content that included new and comprehensive details about HIV, details about HIV as it relates to doctors' visits, and general health information. Motivational themes that emerged were the desire for enhancement of future orientation; reinforcement of positive influences from partners, parents, and friends; collaboration with health care providers; decreasing stigma; and increasing personal relevance of HIV care. Behavioral skills themes centered on self-efficacy and strategies for medical adherence and self-care. On the client service questionnaire, 10 out of the 11 participants indicated they were "satisfied with the game activities," and 9 out of 11 "would recommend it to a friend." On the session evaluation form, 9 out of 11 agreed that they "learned a lot from the game."ConclusionsWe utilized youth feedback, social learning theory (information-motivation-behavioral skills), and agile software development to create a multilevel, immersive, action-oriented iPhone gaming intervention to measure and improve treatment adherence for adolescents and young adults living with HIV. There is a dearth of gaming interventions for this population, and this study is a significant step in working toward the development and testing of an iPhone gaming app intervention to promote adherence to antiretroviral treatment.Trial registrationClinicalTrials.gov NCT01887210; http://clinicaltrials.gov/ct2/show/NCT01887210 (Archived by WebCite at http://www.webcitation.org/6xHMW0NI1).

Project description:BackgroundMen who have sex with men (MSM) are at high risk for human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection in China. Correct and consistent condom use is one of the most effective strategies for preventing the spread of HIV. This study developed a modified Information-Motivation-Behavioral Skills (IMB) model to predict condom use behavior among Chinese MSM.MethodsA cross-sectional study was conducted to collect data using self-administered electronic questionnaire. Participants were recruited from HIV Voluntary Counseling and Testing clinics in six district Centers for Disease Control and Prevention in Guangzhou and two community-based HIV service centers (Lingnan Partners and Zhitong Charity) from May to September 2017. Structural equation modeling was performed to develop the modified IMB model with extended multilevel factors.ResultsAmong the 976 MSM included, 52.05% had engaged in anal intercourse with a condom every time. The final modified IMB model fitted the data more ideally than the conventional model. The final modified IMB model revealed that behavioral skills positively contributed directly to condom use (β = 0.385, p < 0.001) and partially mediated the associations between information (β = 0.106, p = 0.005) and motivation (β = 0.390, p < 0.001) and condom use. Regarding the extended multilevel factors, education, income, receiving HIV prevention services, sexual partner seeking behavior, depression, intimate partner violence, and child sexual abuse had indirect impacts on condom use that were mediated by information, motivation, and/or behavioral skills (p < 0.05). All paths from the latent variable to the corresponding observed variables were statistically significant (p < 0.001).ConclusionThe modified IMB model with extended multilevel factors could serve as a theoretical framework for behavioral interventions for condom use among Chinese MSM. Further prospective studies are needed to examine the predictive power of the modified IMB model.
