Effectiveness of a Mobile Health Intervention (DOT Selfie) in Increasing Treatment Adherence Monitoring and Support for Patients With Tuberculosis in Uganda: Randomized Controlled Trial.

Background: Directly observed therapy (DOT) is the standard method for monitoring adherence to tuberculosis (TB) treatment. However, implementing DOT poses challenges for both patients and providers due to limited financial and human resources. Increasing evidence suggests that emerging digital adherence technologies, such as video directly observed therapy (VDOT), can serve as viable alternatives.
