简要总结
RATIONALE:
The way in which information about a drug is provided may affect the ability of patients and doctors to understand how a drug works and the side effects of the drug.
PURPOSE:
This randomized trial is studying how well a drug facts page works compared with a short drug summary in helping patients and doctors understand medical information.
详细描述
This is a randomized study. Participants are contacted by phone via random-digit dialing for initial interview using the computer-assisted telephone interviewing (CATI) system. Eligible participants are then randomized to 1 of 2 intervention arms.
