• W2788050077 abstract "To meet the emerging needs of the increasing numbers of patients with non-communicable diseases and to provide optimum care with optimum contact time and minimum waiting time, as stated in UNRWA guidelines, the mobile phone text messaging system was implemented in UNRWA centres to remind patients of upcoming appointments and to thereby improve the quality of care for vulnerable patients and regulate the work load in the clinics for non-communicable diseases. The aim of this study was to assess the causes for lack of adherence to the appointment system at UNRWA centres.This descriptive cross-sectional study was done in the UNRWA's Khan Younis Health Centre (KYHC), which serves the same refugee population as other UNRWA health centres and follows the same guidelines with minimal variation. Data were collected through interviewer-administered questionnaires, with ten medical staff members involved in the appointment process and 50 patients with non-communicable diseases selected randomly from patients attending the KYHC. The text-message reminder intervention targeted 1000 patients with non-communicable diseases and consisted of an electronic message technique that was developed to remind patients about the day and time of upcoming appointments. Administrative approval was obtained from the chief of UNRWA health programme. Verbal consent was obtained from participants. We followed the Modified International Code of Ethics Principles (1975), known as the Declaration of Helsinki.The main barrier to adherence to appointments in the clinic for non-communicable diseases was forgetting the appointment. Other factors were lack of awareness, clinic overcrowding, appointments that do not match the patient's preference, availability of other service providers, and financial issues. In March, 2016, after the completion of the intervention, the proportion of patients that adhered to their appointment by date and time was 76%, compared with about 45% in January and February, 2016 (p=0·013).The text messaging reminder is a successful way of improving patient's adherence to appointments in UNRWA clinics for non-communicable diseases. The intervention should be continued and integrated in daily work. More financial resources are needed to support the text messaging reminder system.None." @default.
