Summary

The goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate of effectiveness when using the "telemedicine medication reminder app on smartphones" at the Infertility Department of Hung Vuong Hospital. The main questions it aims to answer are: Comparison of the medication forgetting rate between the group of patients using the product and the group of patients not using the app. Assessment of the level of patient satisfaction when using the app. Comparison of the quantity and quality outcomes of eggs between the group of patients using the app and the group of patients not using the app. Participants will: Using or not using " "telemedicine medication reminder app on smartphones" Record the number of cycle cancellations, number of missed doses, satisfaction rates, number of retrieved oocytes, number of mature oocytes, number of immature oocytes, and number of abnormal oocytes.

Detailed description

Goal of SMART: S Specific: fertility specialists at the Infertility Department of Hung Vuong Hospital, researchers at the Department of Biomedical Engineering - International University - National University of Ho Chi Minh City, and patients at the Infertility Department of Hung Vuong Hospital. Fertility specialists will be responsible for advising and assisting the research team in developing the "telemedicine medication reminder app on smartphones" tailored to the needs and user-friendly for patients. They will support data collection to compare the effectiveness of product usage. Researchers will be responsible for developing and improving the "telemedicine medication reminder app on smartphones" according to the requirements of fertility specialists and patients, as well as analyzing data to evaluate the product's effectiveness. M Measurable: The effectiveness of the "telemedicine medication reminder app on smartphones" will be compared between the group of patients using the product and the group of patients not using it: Comparison of the medication forgetting rate between the group of patients using the product and the group of patients not using the product. Evaluation of patient satisfaction level when using the product. Comparison of the quantity and quality outcomes of eggs between the group of patients using the product and the group of patients not using the product. A Attainable: The Department of Biomedical Engineering has developed numerous telemedicine healthcare products and achieved notable successes, exemplified by the telemedicine blood pressure monitor. The Infertility Department has a policy to foster scientific research collaboration, aiming to enhance treatment effectiveness and patient satisfaction. The Infertility Department is a prominent and reputable reproductive support center with a large number of patients, facilitating data collection needs. R Realistic: The demand for remote monitoring and home healthcare is a legitimate need for patients, especially following the COVID-19 pandemic. T Time-bound: This research will be conducted over a period of 18 months with specific tasks including 10 months for mobile application development, 6 months for patients recruitment and 2 months for data analysis and interpretation.
