63 patients
Participants should
communicate their daily
adherence during 2 weeks
in the voice system. The
feasibility of the system
was analyzed and,
retrospectively, compared
with the self-reported
adherence data obtained
during previous follow-up.
A pilot study intended
to assess the feasibility
and reliability of an
Interactive Voice
Response System (IVR)
for assessing treatment
adherence.
1 month
The feasibility of these new
promising systems should be
improved. Besides, further
studies should be conducted
with another comparator
for adherence measurement
which is more adequate and
representative.

To develop and validate
a predictive model for
detecting drug related
problems (DRPs) in HIV
patients on antiretroviral
treatment.
4 months
The model developed
and validated allows the
detection of those patients
on antiretroviral treatment
at higher risk of developing
a DRP.

Further research is required
on the efficacy and costefficacy
of interventions
by Pharmacists in clinical
practice, with the aim
to reach a consensus on
reimbursement policies.
