Optimizing Research Data Acquisition With Smart Pill Bottles
Sponsor: Ciusss de L'Est de l'Île de Montréal
Summary
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if smart pill bottles can be used as a tool to optimize data collection in clinical trials by increasing the quality of data collected and limiting the associated cost. The main questions it aims to answer are: Is the use of smart pill bottles a feasible method of data collection in clinical trials in terms of patient adherence. Is the data collected by the smart pill bottles of higher quality than that collected through human resources? What is the impact of the use of smart pill bottles on the costs involved in clinical trials ? Researchers will collect data on postoperative opioid medication consumption with the smart pill bottle and assess the adherence of patients to the device along with the quality of data collected and the costs involved in the process. Participants will: Use the smart pill bottle to consume opioid medication following surgery for 3 months At the end of the 3 month period, the group will have filled out surveys detailing their opioid consumption, surgical pain and other relevant information.
