Mobile health interventions to promote adherence to antiretroviral therapy among adolescents and young adults living with HIV represent a promising strategy. This pilot study (N = 37) evaluated the psychosocial impacts of an efficacious adherence intervention, cell phone support (CPS). Participants receiving CPS reported significant decreases in perceived stress, depression, and illicit substance use, and increases in self-efficacy during at least one study assessment period, in comparison to participants receiving usual care. Future research using a larger sample should test for mediators of treatment efficacy to further characterize how cell phone interventions impact adherence.
移动健康干预措施可提高艾滋病毒感染者青少年和年轻成人对抗逆转录病毒治疗的依从性,是一种很有前途的策略。本试点研究(N=37)评估了一种有效的依从性干预措施,即手机支持(CPS)的心理社会影响。与接受常规护理的参与者相比,接受 CPS 的参与者在至少一个研究评估期间报告称,其感知压力、抑郁和非法药物使用显著减少,而自我效能感则有所增加。未来应使用更大的样本量开展研究,以检验治疗效果的中介因素,进一步明确手机干预措施如何影响依从性。
