Description
PICOT SUMMARY:
The PICOT question asks how the integration of wearable devices for medication adherence, compared to no intervention, can lead to increased medication adherence rates in patients aged 60 and older with chronic diseases. The goal is to measure medication adherence rates using objective measures like electronic medication monitoring systems or pill counts, and determine if this leads to improved overall health outcomes over a 6-month period.
PICOT QUESTION:
