PANDIA IRIS: Patients With Diabetes and Kidney Failure, an Interdisciplinary Medication Adherence Support Program

Monocentric, randomised, controlled and open study. Subjects will be included prospectively and consecutively and randomly assigned into two groups. Intervention group A will benefit a medication adherence support program during 12 months while intervention group B during 6 months only. Adherence will be monitored using an Electronic Monitoring system (EM, named MEMS®; Aardex Ltd.) during 24 months. At each pharmacy visit, the pharmacist will conduct a semi-structured interview in 15 minutes based on Fisher's sociocognitive model with the patients. A summary of the interview and the adherence graph will be send to the patient' health professionals.

In addition to usual care, patients are included in a medication adherence support program combining an Electronic Monitoring system (EM, named MEMS®; Aardex Ltd) and motivational semi-structured interviews. This programm is held by the Unisanté's community pharmacists*, in coordination with medical and nurse staff , to support medication adherence and to promote the continuity of care. For patients not speaking french, english, or italian, the interviews will be done with a interpreter.

The medication adherence data will be analysed in both groups along with clinical data obtained through draw samples regularly prescribed by the physician.

*Since the 1st January 2019, the Policlinique Médicale Universitaire became Unisanté, University Center for Primary Care and Public Health (Lausanne, Switzerland).
