Abstract

In this paper, we reviewed the various advanced technologies and methods that could help patients for measuring adherence of patients. There exist intelligent technologies that are available for measuring medication adherence, including medication event monitoring system (MEMS®), smart blister packs, radio frequency identification (RFID) embedded smart drawers, and wisely aware RFID dosage (WARD) system. Utilization of these advanced technologies and systems have aided in enhancing the adherence to a greater extent. For example, MEMS® refers to the electronic cap that counts the number of bottles opened, but it can be employed only with bottles. Smart blisters are pharmaceutical packagings that possess the capability of monitoring when a pill or tablet is taken out of its packing. All those intelligent technologies can help in active monitoring of patients regarding adherence and capable of eradicating various medication errors due to which adherence is affected.

对新兴智能技术创新在医疗保健部门的审查，以提高患者的药物依从性

在本文中，我们回顾了各种先进的技术和方法，可以帮助患者测量患者的依从性。现有的智能技术可用于测量药物依从性，包括用药事件监测系统(MEMS®)，智能吸塑包装，射频识别(RFID)嵌入式智能抽屉，以及智能感知RFID剂量(WARD)系统。这些先进技术和系统的使用有助于在更大程度上加强遵守。例如，MEMS®指的是计算打开的瓶子数量的电子盖，但它只能用于瓶子。智能水泡是一种药品包装，当药丸或片剂从包装中取出时，它具有监测能力。所有这些智能技术都可以帮助积极监测患者的依从性，并能够消除因依从性而受到影响的各种药物错误。
