Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

Feasibility study of using a digital health feedback system (DHFS) to monitor medication-taking and physiologic and behavioral parameters in patients with bipolar disorder or schizophrenia. Hypothesis: Using a digital health feedback system to characterize medication-taking behavior and activities of daily living is safe and tolerable in appropriately selected patients with bipolar disorder and schizophrenia.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

In this 4-week observational study conducted between May 2010 and May 2011 at 2 US academic clinical study sites, 12 adults with bipolar disorder and 16 adults with schizophrenia (all diagnosed according to DSM-IV criteria) utilized a digital health feedback system (DHFS). All subjects were on a stable regimen of oral medication. The DHFS utilized a digital tablet, consisting of an ingestion sensor that was embedded in a tablet containing nonpharmacologic excipients, which subjects coingested with their regularly prescribed medication.

The primary study objective was to compare the accuracy of DHFS in confirming digital tablet ingestion versus a method of directly observed ingestion; secondary aims included characterization of adherence and physiologic measures longitudinally in these cohorts.
