    Abstract:
    OBJECTIVE: The objective of the current study was to compare postintervention adherence trajectories with preintervention trajectories for those receiving a telephonic motivational interviewing (MoI) intervention to determine predictors associated with each distinct postintervention trajectory and any association between pre- and postintervention trajectories. DESIGN: Retrospective study design using group-based trajectory modeling. SETTINGS AND PARTICIPANTS: A telephonic MoI intervention was conducted by trained student pharmacists to improve statin adherence in a Medicare Advantage plan. Four preintervention adherence trajectories were previously identified: rapid decline (RD), gradual decline (GD), gaps in adherence (GA), and adherent and were used to customize the MoI intervention. Patients from the 3 nonadherent preintervention trajectories were randomized to control or intervention groups and were followed for 6 months from the date of MoI intervention. OUTCOME MEASURES: Group-based trajectory modeling was performed to identify 3 relevant postintervention trajectories. Descriptive statistics were used to assess differences in pre- and postintervention adherence trajectories. Multinomial logistic regression was conducted to determine predictors associated with each identified postintervention trajectory. RESULTS: There were 152 intervention patients and 304 randomly selected controls. The prominent postintervention trajectories that were identified differed from the preintervention trajectories and were (1) GD (17.2%), (2) adherent (61.9%), and (3) discontinuation (20.9%). Among the intervention group, more patients in the GA preintervention trajectory (58.65%) moved to the adherent trajectory postintervention than those in the RD and GD preintervention trajectories. Furthermore, the predictors associated with the postintervention trajectories included MoI intervention, prescriber specialty, presence of diabetes, presence of congestive heart failure, Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services risk score, and preintervention trajectories. CONCLUSION: The postintervention adherence trajectory patterns differed from the preintervention trajectory patterns with many patients moving into an adherent trajectory especially among those receiving the intervention.
