Electronic Medication Adherence Products: Classification, Usability, and Potential Impact on Adherence among Older Adults

Limitations in domains, such as physical abilities and cognitive capacity, affect an older adult’s ability to manage their medications effectively. There are several medication adherence aids that aim to accommodate those limitations. However, there is not a tool that effectively measures these limitations. Additionally, there is a paucity of research on the usability and effectiveness of medication adherence aids. This presentation will highlight these challenges and review emerging research in the use of electronic medication adherence aids.
