NCT ID NCT07718204
First seen Jul 21, 2026 · Last updated Jul 22, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This study tests a program called MedMemos for families of children who have had a bone marrow transplant. The program includes four sessions with educational videos and a kit to help manage medications. Researchers want to see if families find it useful and if it helps them take their medicines as prescribed.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.
- Active substance
- MedMemos, a 4-session behavioral intervention with videos and a medication management kit
- What this could lead to
- If it works, MedMemos could become a standard tool to help families manage complex medication schedules after a bone marrow transplant, improving health outcomes.
- What could go wrong
- This is a small, early-stage trial focused on feasibility and acceptability, not yet on proving effectiveness. The results may not apply to all families or settings.
