Swiss study replaces doctor visits with smartphone videos for TB patients

NCT ID NCT06574529

Summary

This study tested whether tuberculosis patients could use smartphone videos to show they're taking their medication, instead of requiring in-person visits. Researchers enrolled 51 patients in Switzerland to see if this video approach was practical and acceptable. The goal was to make treatment monitoring more convenient and less stigmatizing while ensuring patients complete their full course of medication.
