Treatment Adherence clinical trials at UCSD
2 in progress, 1 open to eligible people
Women Focused Encounters for Resilience Independence Strength and Eudaimonia
open to eligible females ages 18 years and up
The goal of this combination Type 1 hybrid and observational study is to evaluate the impact of a peer delivered intervention of acceptance and comittment therapy(ACT) + exercise + social support to address the substance (ab)use, violence, and AIDS/HIV (SAVA) to improve medication adherence for women living with HIV (WLWH). This intervention will be implemented by community based organizations that focus on WLWH across four counties. The main question it aims to answer are: - Will peer provision of ACT, exercise, and social support improve medication adherence for WLWH? - Will community based organizations be able to sustain the intervention after research is completed, and what changes will need to be made to sustain th eintervention.

Blood Pressure Care for Advancing Real-World Evidence (BPCARE)
Sorry, not currently recruiting here
The goal of this randomized clinical trial is to determine whether a community health worker-delivered, multi-component behavioral intervention can improve antihypertensive medication adherence and blood pressure control among adult refugees with hypertension who are prescribed antihypertensive medications. The main questions it aims to answer are: 1. Does participation in the BPCARE intervention improve antihypertensive medication adherence compared to enhanced usual care? 2. Does participation in the BPCARE intervention improve blood pressure control and persistence over time compared to enhanced usual care? Researchers will compare participants randomized to the BPCARE intervention to those receiving enhanced usual care (hypertension information and a home blood pressure monitor) to determine the effects on medication adherence, blood pressure control, and persistence. Participants will: - Be randomly assigned to either the BPCARE intervention or enhanced usual care - Receive hypertension education and a home blood pressure monitor - Participate in community health worker-delivered sessions that include hypertension and medication education, motivational interviewing, problem-solving, and action planning (intervention arm only) - Complete questionnaires assessing medication adherence and related psychosocial factors - Have blood pressure monitored using connected home blood pressure devices - Complete pill counts to assess medication adherence over a nine-month follow-up period
