Could your phone keep you out of the hospital? new app trial aims to help patients stick to meds

NCT ID NCT05371548

Summary

This study is testing a smartphone app called 'Smart About Meds' (SAM) to see if it helps people take their medications correctly after leaving the hospital. Researchers will enroll 3,250 patients and randomly assign them to either use the app or receive usual care. The main goal is to see if the app reduces emergency room visits, hospital readmissions, or deaths in the 90 days after discharge by improving how people manage their prescriptions.
