Sickle cell disease (SCD) is endemic in non-Western countries. Due to migration, the prevalence of SCD in the Netherlands has increased. Adherence to medical treatment is recognized as a major problem area. Therefore, new effective interventions to increase adherence are urgently needed.
METHODS/DESIGN: The TEAM study is an ongoing randomized controlled trial (RCT) to compare protocolized individual medical appointments (IMA's; care-as-usual) with protocolized group medical appointments (GMA's; novel intervention) in pediatric (n = 40) and adult (n = 60) patients. The study aims to assess the effectiveness of GMA's (over a three year period) on patients' self-efficacy, adherence, quality of life, morbidity, hospital admissions and satisfaction with the treating professional; as well as to test the cost-effectiveness of GMA's. In both the IMA and GMA groups structured assessments will be performed at baseline (start of the study), after 1.5 and after 3 years.
This is the first RCT to investigate the effectiveness of GMA's on self-efficacy and adherence in pediatric and adult patients with SCD, including a cost-effectiveness analysis.

镰状细胞病(SCD)在非西方国家呈地方性流行。由于移民,荷兰SCD的患病率有所上升。坚持药物治疗被认为是一个主要问题领域。因此,迫切需要新的有效干预措施来提高依从性。
方法/设计:TEAM研究是一项正在进行的随机对照试验(RCT),旨在比较小儿(n = 40)和成人(n = 60)患者的标准化个体医疗预约(IMA;常规护理)与标准化集体医疗预约(GMA;新型干预措施)。该研究旨在评估GMA(在三年期间)对患者自我效能感、依从性、生活质量、发病率、住院情况以及对治疗专业人员满意度的有效性;同时测试GMA的成本效益。在IMA组和GMA组中,将在基线(研究开始时)、1.5年后和3年后进行结构化评估。
这是第一项研究GMA对小儿和成人SCD患者自我效能感和依从性有效性的RCT,包括成本效益分析。
