Trial summary

Adherence to treatment is a major challenge in cystic fibrosis (CF). Motivational Interviewing (MI) is increasingly used to address this, but its effectiveness is unknown. We investigated the clinical impact of an MI intervention, delivered by a specifically trained pharmacist, on adherence to inhaled antibiotics (IA). Read more about this study

Official title: Assessing the Clinical Impact of Motivational Interviewing on Inhaled Antibiotic Adherence in Cystic Fibrosis

Adherence to treatment is a major challenge in cystic fibrosis (CF). Motivational Interviewing (MI) is increasingly used to address this, but its effectiveness is unknown. We investigated the clinical impact of an MI intervention, delivered by a specifically trained pharmacist, on adherence to inhaled antibiotics (IA).

Read the detailed description

Adherence to treatment is a major challenge in cystic fibrosis (CF). Motivational Interviewing (MI) is increasingly used to address this, but its effectiveness is unknown. We investigated the clinical impact of an MI intervention, delivered by a specifically trained pharmacist, on adherence to inhaled antibiotics (IA).

Adults with CF were recruited through the Regional CF Centre. A pharmacist trained in MI delivered three recorded MI sessions over 2 months, with follow up at 3, 4 and 6 months. Demographics, ppFEV1, BMI, adherence (IA collection rates) and additional antibiotic use were collected during the study and for 6 months prior. Treatment Quality and Satisfaction (TQSM), self-reported adherence (Moriskey Medication Adherence Scale-8 (MMAS-8)), Quality Of Life (CF Questionnaire-Revised (CFQ-R)) and sputum Pseudomonas aeruginosa (Pa) density were assessed at each study visit. Statistical analysis compared outcomes pre and post-intervention and variation during the intervention period.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Inhaled Antibiotic collection percentage

    Change in adherence to Inhaled Antibiotic measured by collection from pharmacy in 6 months before intervention and at end of intervention

    Measured: 6 months preceding intervention compared to end of 6 month intervention period

Secondary outcomes (7)
  1. Percent Predicted Forced Expiratory Volume in 1 second (ppFEV1)

    Change in ppFEV1 from start of study to end of study (6 months)

    Measured: 6 months

  2. Body Mass Index (BMI)

    Change in BMI from start of study to end of study (6 months)

    Measured: 6 months

  3. Need for additional Intra-venous or oral antibiotics

    change in additional antibiotic days from 6 months preceding the intervention to end of intervention period

    Measured: 6 months

  4. Treatment quality and satisfaction (TQSM)

    Change in TQSM from start to end of intervention period

    Measured: 6 months

  5. Self reported adherence using "Moriskey Medication Adherence 8" questionnaire (MMAS-8)

    Change in MMAS-8 from start to end of intervention period

    Measured: 6 months

  6. Density of Pseudomonas growth in sputum

    Change in density of pseudomonas growth from start to end of intervention period

    Measured: 6 months

  7. Quality of life measured by CFQ-R

    Change in quality of life from start to end of intervention period

    Measured: 6 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Motivational Interviewing in people with Cystic Fibrosis, run by Belfast Health and Social Care Trust.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 6 inclusion and 2 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 12 Jul 2019. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Inhaled Antibiotic collection percentage (time frame: 6 months preceding intervention compared to end of 6 month intervention period). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 12 Jul 2019.
