This is a pilot, multicenter, prospective, randomized controlled study to evaluate the
feasibility of an innovative medication adherence intervention utilizing a web-based, mobile
medication management application [MedActionPlan® (MAP)] to encourage self-management by
reinforcing adherence and education about treatment regimens in Participants with cystic
fibrosis (CF) (ages 12 years and older).
Outcomes of interest for this study are 1) feasibility of MAP in real-world setting which
will be evaluated using patient/caregiver and clinician feedback regarding value, ease of
use, and challenges with use, 2) effect of MAP on patient/caregiver knowledge and perception
of medication use, 3) effect of MAP on adherence to inhaled and oral medications used in
chronic management of CF. Preliminary data regarding outcomes on exacerbations, lung
function, and health care system utilization (e.g., emergency department visits,
hospitalization) will also be examined as part of this study.
