This grant, offered by the National Institute of Diabetes and Digestive and Kidney Diseases (NIDDK), is for supporting research to improve adherence to prescribed treatment regimens in adolescents with chronic kidney or urologic diseases, or diabetes. Poor adherence can significantly impact morbidity and mortality for patients with chronic diseases, especially during the challenging adolescent period due to unique developmental changes and competing demands. There is a critical need for studies addressing non-adherence in this vulnerable population. The NIDDK invites applications from investigators to better understand factors influencing adherence, develop appropriate measures, and test innovative strategies to enhance adherence in these young individuals. The ultimate goal is to mitigate tragic outcomes by improving treatment compliance.

Description: | Purpose. Adherence to a prescribed treatment regimen, including medications, devices and behavioral recommendations, can significantly impact morbidity and mortality for patients with chronic diseases, including chronic kidney or urologic disease and diabetes. When adherence to complex and seemingly rigid treatment regimens is poor, the results can be tragic. Adolescence can also be a particularly challenging time for adherence given the competing demands in an adolescents life, the unique developmental changes, and rapidly changing set of responsibilities as they transition to adulthood. There are few studies in pediatrics beyond the HIV literature that address non-adherence. The purpose of the FOA is to support research to improve adherence in adolescents with chronic kidney or urologic diseases, or diabetes. Therefore, the National Institute of Diabetes and Digestive and Kidney Diseases (NIDDK) invites applications from new or established investigators to pursue research to better understand factors that influence adherence, develop appropriate measures of adherence, and test innovative strategies to enhance adherence in this vulnerable population. Mechanism of Support. This FOA will utilize the NIH Research Project Grant (R01) award mechanism Funds Available and Anticipated Number of Awards. The NIDDK intends to commit up to $2 million in 2011 for up to 6 new awards. |
