Improving medication adherence in adult kidney transplantation (IMAKT): A pilot randomised controlled trial

Abstract Resources to support long-term medication adherence in kidney transplantation are limited. This study aimed to determine the efficacy of an intervention designed for kidney transplant recipients to enhance medication adherence. A single-blind, multi-site, 12-month pilot randomised controlle...
