Identifying Patient-centered Barriers and Preferred Strategies to Support Self-efficacy for Medication Adherence With Two-way Text Messaging
The investigators will explore barriers to improving self-efficacy, or the ability to feel in
control of their disease, and medication adherence with text messaging through surveys and
interviews with adolescents and adults with SCD cared for at the Vanderbilt Meharry Center of
Excellence (VMCE) in Sickle Cell Disease (SCD). The investigators will identify preferences
to improve and sustain adherence to daily medication through selection of
investigator-proposed or patient-generated text messaging strategies. Finally, the
investigators will fill in the literature gaps by describing barriers to self-efficacy and
medication adherence among adults with SCD as well as adolescents with SCD who are
transitioning to adult care.
