EXPERIMENTALMulti-faceted intervention for physicians and patients respectively: physician-facing app and patient-facing messages
Interventions
A physician-facing app was designed to help physicians with recruiting and managing patients and with evidence-based medications prescription. Messages were also developed to send to patients to improve their medical adherence and modify lifestyle.
