One of the most crucial areas within clinical trials and marketed pharmaceuticals is patient non-adherence with their medications. With the advent and ubiquity of mobile cellular phones and text messaging (SMS), there are now opportunities to influence patient behavior and increase patient compliance with their prescribed drug regimen. CTA has made this our highest priority to introduce technology into the clinical trial and general marketplace. Our current offerings in this area include the following services:
CTA is the exclusive North American provider of the SIMpill medication compliance system. This system allows patients to be automatically reminded when they miss a dose based upon their individual medication schedule. It also allows other third parties (caregivers) to be alerted when a dose is missed. To learn more about this solution, please visit www.SIMpillDirect.com.
Sometimes there is the need to alert patients when their next doctor appointment is, when they should be following a certain procedure, or asking them how they are feeling at a specific point during their day. Via our partnership with Exco InTouch, we are able to set-up treatment-specific reminder patterns for individuals or for groups of patient following a clinical trial protocol.
